Going to the Track tonight, race with a supercharged 00 SS
 
Hey guys, long time no chat. Well, there is a guy in town with a Blown SS. I don't know ifyou all remember me talking about the guy in the 98 Z28 that told everyone he beat me, when he jumped me around a U turn, but this is him, but now he has a 480 rwhp SS. Heh heh heh. We'll see :D I am hoping for an 11.1-11.2 @ 125-127. I just put my 1 chambers on and it sounds AWESOME! I will let you all know!

11.2 @ 126... ouch! you should be in the 10's with that mph especially in a foxbody. Good luck though.

Rip him a new one!

Good to hear from you, SaleenGTS.

Good luck with the race. Just concentrate on your launch/traction and you should get him.

with the hp/tq listed in your sig, i don't think you should have any problems as long as you get a good launch.
let us know the results

joe4speed 03-30-2002 01:17 PM

Woohoo! Good luck!

FivepointOH 03-30-2002 03:46 PM

Hey you have any sound files with the 1 chambers? I bet it's pretty sick.... you should show that SS your tailights with your mods and hp....

Coupe5oh 03-30-2002 11:49 PM

I heard a blown 306 with 1 chambers at the track, it sounded mean as he11, and when it bounced off the msd rev limiter it sounded tough, and tearing up almost anyone there, including some trailer queens, let us know what happens..

You are going to beat him badly. 480 rwhp at full weight(3,700#s) is not going to get him close to your ET and mph. At best he will run mid 11s at high 1-teens maybe 120. If he still has the stock rear and clutch, he might not make it off of the line with slicks and a hard launch. Why can't I ever get races like this?

And?

vtec8ter 04-02-2002 10:56 AM

what happened?
 
did you race yet? :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

SaleenGTS 04-02-2002 12:06 PM

OK, sorry about the delay. My internet has been down.

The track was packed, so I only got to run twice.

The first run I ran up against Todd(the guy with the SS)

It was A LOT closer that I would have ever thought.

I really need to swap out suspension, and I think after this, I will.

I ran: He ran:

60ft: 1.69 1.77
330ft: 4.91 5.07
660ft: 7.36@102.94 7.65@96.06
1000ft: 9.52 9.89
1/4: 11.344@127.13 11.761@119.37


My second run, I ran against a 98 GT that ran a 14.6. I had the left lane and launched better,getting a 1.63, and ran my best time of a 11.193, but at a lower speed of 126.82.

I think that after I swap out my suspension, I will have a 10.

Till this weekend :D

302 LX Eric 04-02-2002 12:38 PM

A win is a win. Congrats.

Now go get that 10 sec timeslip! :D

vtec8ter 04-02-2002 12:59 PM

hi or low 10's?
 
what are you thinking with the new suspension setup? hi or low 10's? and what about power adders? what are you doing there?

jonnyk 04-03-2002 12:56 AM

Hmmm I'd say 4 tenths and 8 mph is pretty much wasting him. Nice run!

SaleenGTS 04-03-2002 10:10 AM

I don't think I have the hp for low 10's. I would be happy with a 10.9, but I don't think my blower will support that time. My car is gettng to the point now to where it costs a fortune to get faster. With the cage, and rear seats gone, it isn't much of a passenger car anymore either. My next step is to either throw on a shot of N2O or get an ATI instead of the craphole blower I have now.

Coupe5oh 04-03-2002 11:04 PM

I heard stock fuel lines can support only around 550hp in a stang is this true?

good job man.

SaleenGTS 04-03-2002 11:43 PM

All of the articles I read say less than that. That is why I chose to upgrade early.....so not to mess something up.
