Sounds like a blast. Unfortunately my 'stang needs a clutch and tranny http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...oard/frown.gif.

NO SO POK: Yes! bring your Lightning. I want to run one. I drove one the other day and I loved it. I dont think it was as fast as my stang but I could be wrong since I have heard of a few hitting 13.6's stock. I want to run or just compare timeslips.

Sky, I just read you E mails, Can I meet you guys a little further down the road? I think Im a little further south than T.O. Will those slicks fit on my car? I have 5lug but my car is lowered a quarter inch in the rear and I will have a set of controll arms on. I think it will still clear though.

I think the 5lug spacing we have is the same. The rims the tires are on now have horrible back spacing. They stick out like crazy. Thats ok though, cuz it pretty much means they are guaranteed to fit, cuz they stick out instead of in. If your only lowered .25" thats nothing..

Fastang- With my ET streets you could probably pull a 1.7-1.8 60' with that I think your going to need about 102-103mph trap to break a 12... What do u think?

I don't care what club we get out there, just as long as the ratio of Mustangs to anything goes up! We had a Cruise and drag event last month...went real well, met up in O'side and cruised down the PCH to Carlsbad. It was pretty damn cool, I expect the next one to be bigger. You all are invited to join us earlier for the cruise before the racing starts-don't worry, though, we'll play nice until we get to the track!!!! ------------------ Michael J.

Hey sky or anyone else knowlegable. I have never ran on slicks before and Im realy not sure how the burnout thing goes. Should I start out in second since Im a rookie and feather the gas untill she starts to leave the water and my rpms go down? Or should I start out in 3rd and drop the clutch at the redline so they spin faster in the end? Someone actualy told me to start out in first/use the brakes to stop me from leaving the water and to shift through the gears. That just sounds a little tough.

I'm jealous of all you left coasters getting together.
Faststang, the way I do it back east is roll it thru the water,light spin in first just to coat the tires,roll it out to dry ground,stop ,slip it in second & burn em at about 3500-4000 rpm till it starts to pull down. big burnouts in the box can throw water around the rear wheel wells that could come back to haunt you at the line. Have fun. |
Hey Fastang,
Do you and Skyler care if I invite a few of my Lightning buddies to join in? I also think my buddy with the blown SVT contour wants to go. I mean I don't want to be crashing your guys' party with a lot of people, so just let me know. ------------------ '91 LX Procharger, 3 row intercooler, extrude honed Cobra intake, Mac full Length Headers, 30# inj., 73mm C&L, 75mm tb, E303 cam, 289 rods, ported E7 heads, MSD, T-Rex w/255 lph Walbro, 5 lug conversion, Cobra R wheels, 3.27 gears and Moser Axles. |
BRING EM ALL! Any quick ford is fine by me. I love lightnings. I just want to get 2 passes in. One on the slicks and one on the radials.

Super, thanks for the info, I'll try that. I was worried about screwing up my drivetrain too, but my motorsport clutch only has about 17,000 miles on it and I am installing an aluminum ds tonight with better U joints, I think it will hold up ok.

Count me in! I'm not racin this time, maybe this summer, I haven't done any mods yet, but I sure as hell wanna go! I'd be coming from LA.
Fastang/Sky: Email me at andrewgarland@yahoo.com or send me a PM, with more information. Carlsbad at 1:00 pm on March 24th right? I live near NO SLO PK. NO SLO: I can lend you some cash if you need it... Not quite 2K, but if your'e serious I might be able to help you out. |
Sounds good guys... How crowded is it there? Id like to get 5-6 passes at least. Pomona was hell. 6 hours for 2-3 passes usually. Id like to try a couple settings on my timing and a couple runs on and off the mickey thompsons.

Well, I got 3 other Lightning owners that want to go, and I haven't even sent out an anouncement yet.
I might as well invite the SCOASCC (Cobra Club). WE'LL MAKE THIS A FORD VS. THE WORLD EVENT!!!!!

Ahh, not too many. Sorry, I dont mean to sound greedy, but Im driving 3.5 hours and i want to get atleast 5 passes in. http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...oard/smile.gif Just the lightening guys, we dont need the cobras too. http://www.mustangworks.com/interact...oard/smile.gif

Yeah sky's got a point there.
|
Hey Sky and Fastang, I wouldn't worry. I've been there a several times and you'll get 5-6 passes in easy. You can do even more if you don't let the engine cool between runs (which I don't recommend).
If you don't want me to invite a lot of people, then I won't. |
Im not sweating it at all. I will be happy if I get two in and satisfied with one. The last time I went to Pomona I only got one run in the whole damn day. There must have been a thousand 15 second ricers there. On the other hand I got 12 passes in once at pomona when my car was stock. Everyone left for some reason and I was able to stage, run, stage, run, and so forth. My car was quite consistant though.

Update anyone? People who are still going, how many people are joining you? Anyone slammin more parts on before the big day?

I will be bringing 3-4 friends with me and meeting in TO... as far as last minute mods http://www.mustangworks.com/msgboard/wink.gif
The poor gt is getting an Art Carr extreme duty AOD w/tbrake, manual vb, and 3k stall, and the rear from my lx (3.73's 31 spline), with eibach launch kit, steeda lowers, D&D adj uppers, D&D camber/caster plates.

Im not sure what your gonna run but you should have one helluva 60 ft!
|
I just put on Groundpounder subs, and I hope to get the Groundpounder lower control arms on this weekend. I'm also taking it to get it dyno'd Friday.
Hey - I just put on an Aeromotive FPR and it's jammed tight against my EGR valve. Anybody ever run into this? Is there an EGR valve that DOESN'T do this? AAHH! |
well, just talked to Summit and my cage will be shipped out fri or sat...just have to get it in the car in time to race! everyone still good to go?
|
HE11 yeah Im still goin. Im gonna do my best to get a new intake before then too.
|
We don't need cages for this, do we?
|
I dont think you need a cage untill you run 11's but I could be wrong, either way Im not gonna have to worry about it for a while. lol

no, you guys dont need cages unless you have a convertible that runs 13.99 or less. They usually are lieniant but I have been going there too often and was told last time that unless I get a cage, I cant go below 14's. (No fun if I cant go for my best time!)
|
Sky or Fastang, can you send me a private message with the details?

NO SLO PK, judging by your sig, your car looks awesome. Have you ever ran it before?
|
Well, since I've got a convertible, I guess I better not break into the 13's, or that'll be my only run for the day, huh? I'm taking it to Germanson Automotive in Oxnard for a dyno-tune on Friday, so I'll plug the results into the analyzer and see what I should run. Look at my sig and take a guess on RWHP.

Damn I'm gettin excited guys! I cant wait. withAmc- How did you get in there? I heard itw as a 6mo waiting list? Are they going to tune your car? I'd love to get a tuneing session in.

SKYMAN - Just call them up. That 6 month backlog was earlier in the year, they're OK now. I could have gone last week, but I wasn't ready yet. He's going to hook up a wideband O2 sensor, fuel pressure monitor, then run it, tweak it and run it some more. They can burn chips for you, but that gets expensive. It's $100 an hour for dyno time.

I am bringing a couple from here and maybe one more from san diego. I really hope the third person goes...his stang is set up for autocross and it is absolutly BAD! He has over 5K just in the suspention alone! He is also one hell of a driver. Dammit pete, if you are reading this you better be there!
|
Droppin the A/C huh Sky, What do you have to do about the belts?
|
Better than I thought it would be! 277 RWHP @ 5000 RPM, 313 ft/lbs torque @ 3500 RPM. It started out at 242 HP, dropped the fuel pressure to 35 PSI, advanced the timing to 16, 34 more HP.
If I figure my 86 convertible with 200 lb me in it weighs 3600 lbs, that should put me at a 13.7 at 99 MPH. (assuming I know how to drive). Think they'll kick me off the track? I'm putting the LCA's in this weekend, if I have time I'll rebuild the Trac-Lock and lose the sway bar before we go. [This message has been edited by withamc (edited 03-09-2001).] |
withamc: they will let you make a couple runs before telling you to pit it...
(one for the warning, 1 more to get put in the bleachers) |
Wow thats good Withamc. How much did it cost you for that tune? $100 or more?
Also I say you trap 103! just hunch, but we'll see. Does the car feel stronger after the tune? And could you get me the # for germanson I'm gonna get in there!! As for gettin kicked off at POMONA you need a helmet for 13.99. I got 4 runs in before they sent me back for not having one. Is carlsbad the same? if so I need one to borrow!! As for the A/C it was hot today and I decieded I think I'm going to keep it. Another 40lbs of my front end is just going to make it ride even higher than before... I think Im gonna ice down my car at the track though and pull the accessory belt completely for 1 run. I heard that gives you 2mph!

The gathering sounds great guys, hope you all have fun. This really isn't about street racing and it has gone on for quite some time. It has come down to a discussion between a few.
Since most of this can be handled via email I am going to close it here. Thread closed ------------------ SVO siamesed 351 stroked to 417ci,Yates heads, solid roller,Trans King glide and a little blue bottle of giggle gas. My Car |
