Had a good time yesterday at the Santa Pod Raceway in England.
The track was a bit greasy and there was a serious headwind but I did a new PB of 13.92 at 98.9 mph.
Whooohooo

Just to give you some idea of other times being run, a Vauxhall Monaro (same as a GTO) did a 14.2, a Maserati GT did a 14.8 and most of the Subaru's, Evo's and Skylines were in the 14/15's.
One Lightning ran a 12.9 on Nitto Drag radials and another ran a 13.2.
Both have 6 lowers, chips aand cold air etc.
Pretty good times given the conditions.

Funniest bit was sneaking in the ricer lanes and nobody would race me so I had to do a solo pass.

Some Pics

 

Those are some good quality pic's,,looks like a good time.

 

NICE!! I DIDN"T KNOW THESE BIG trucks could move that quick in the 1/4 mile... So is it the same Supercharger as the lightning??
Nice truck.

where did you find your bug shield?
shoot me a email, jdaniels138@comcast.net.

Stomp,
There's way quicker HD's out there. They are very heavy but if you spend the $$$, you can go as fast as you like.
The engine is the same as the Lightning but with a bigger upper pulley on the blower. In stock form 340hp vs 380 for the L.
The main problem is that the HD probably weighs about 1000lb more than the L due to the bigger cab, doors and heavy *** interior.

JD,
I got the bugshield from a vendor on ebay. Sorry, can't remember the name as it was a year ago.
Try searching on there bud.

 

so does changing the pulley and tune alone literally put it at the same (or better) output as the L?

 

The engine is identical bar the upper pulley and stock tune.
If you changed the top pulley to a Lightning one and uploaded the Lightning tune, the power would be identical to all intents and purposes.
If you changed just the lower pulley (and tune - very important) your power level would be above a stock L.
If the L made the same mods as you, he would be slightly more powerful due to his smaller upper pulley spinning the blower faster.
As standard, the smaller L upper pulley give it approx. 2lbs more boost than the HD.
The real advantage of the L over the HD is weight. On the dragstrip, every extra 100lb you carry is a 0.1 second deficit.
If the L weighs 1000lb less than an HD, it would be (and is) approx 1 second quicker over the quarter for the same power output.

More Bling = less speed :o

 

New Quarter Mile Time!! And Very Happy With It!!!
