Big Kill

i went to the immokalee 1/8mile drag strip with a couple freinds.
first car that i raced was subaru wrx i ran a 8.77 and he ran 9.8
next race one of my buddies hooked it up by putting me against a 2005 vette BRAND NEW every body at the track stood on the sides watching. as soon as that third yellow light came up i let RIP
my 60' was a 1.9 and my 1/8 was a 8.59 the vette ended up running a 8.65 everybody congradulated me on beating the chevy
i still think he should of beat me. What Do YOU Guys ThInK?

Great Kill,

As long as we jump them at the light our trucks do good. Don't let them talk you in to going of the roll.

If it had been a 1/4 mile, he'd probably have caught you but you beat him"fair and square" .

The fun part comes when he's showing it to friends and has to say "Oh yeah, it's fast! It's only ever been beaten by a truck!"

we ran last nite at the local 1/8 track. street nite...no tree , no time. 5 bucks to run all nite.
my friend has a @99 eclipse gsx awd built motor 25psi 75ish shot
that thing is mean out of the hole (5000rpm launches).
i added jlp bars yesterday.
with 28x12.50 et's i consistantly pulled him 1-2 from a dig and 4-5 at the stripe. (16-17 psi pulley)
b4 calling it a nite i swapped back to my street rubber (295/40/20)and made 2 more runs w/ him. i had my race tires , jack,cordless impact, etc. in the back.
i was still pulling1-2 out of the hole spinning and 2-3 all over the track on the other end.
my mph seems higher(no times) on the 29.5" tall gsa's...i may go to a taller wider slick and see what happens.
