Ok
That time is a little slow for the mph though. Maybe half a second too slow. Although that may be a turbo thing.

Would need to ask him though ... he is on here now ... boostlover is his username.
I think keeping the car in a straight-line off launch ... and keeping traction is a tad hard ... for a light car .. might have babied the start as well .... as last time he raced he blew his transfer case to bits as well.

yeah simon you are right, i did baby it off the line.
the following factors i have to take into consideration. the tyres are still standard falken street tyres the drive train cant cope with the abuse until a bit of funds are poured into it, and the best 60 foot i have done to date is 1.58. so in order to make the drivetrain last, i have to baby the 60 footers. Epitome, without knowing your setup, im sure you are running an auto, where as i am running a manual transmission. if an auto were to be adapted, 9's are an easy task, with the use of the standard tyres still...

you know guys its great that everyone logs in there info on 1/4 times and what you got to do to achive these times, makes me wonder how these journes gat there 1/4 times for publications for there vehicles. I went out last wednesday WSID in my ef xr6 auto 16 was my best time for the fist time out s**t theres a lot more involved than meets the eye. its a real eye opener. I've gotton the bug now more practice and maybe lower times. Keeping fingers x

Yeah it is. The drive line is a 466 cube Big Block Ford, Allfast 5200rpm converter, Full manual trans braked C6 by Top Quality Transmissions and a Sommers Bros 9". We're running high 8's and its making a lazy 600hp. It has more in it yet. Once we strengthen up the bottom end some more, we'll be able to rev past the self imposed 7500rpm limit. The cam is good for 8000rpm. Then we should see 700-750hp and mid 8's.

Well I went to Calder Park on the weekend on its opening after got revamped.
The start line wasn't the stickiest and my tyres aren't either! With the 2500rpm stall converter I couldn't get off the line with boost, my wheels would just spin, hence my poor 60ft'er, its time for some M/T et street radials me thinks!! 60ft - 2.316 330ft - 5.792 660ft - 8.547@89.03mph 1000ft - 10.913 ET - 12.925@113.03mph
