C-5 conv. Busted

88workcar · 08-30-2002, 05:49 AM

I have been racing a Yamaha Banshee for the last two years. Last night was bike night at the track. I decided to pull with my Car last night. Just to show off

, it went 12.20 @ 110 Wed. As I am passing Burger King thier sits a tan c-5 conv. ready to pull out. I rapped up twice, Had to. He got in behind me and we headed toward the track. Within minutes he tried to pass, I pulled from him. On his next attempt I let him get to the back bumper then hit it and again pulled him. I let off and waved for him to go ahead and pass. He pulled up on the side of me and gave me a thumbs up and a big sh1t eating grin and went on. I notched my belt soon as I got home. Oh the banshee went 7.10 @ 89 1.49 60ft 1/8th last night. Still no 6sec pass.

What do you guys do to get those quads to go so damm fast?? Two weeks ago there was one here that went 5.85@112! I dont remember what kind it was. It was awesome though! It looked like it was all the guy could do to to hang on!

There are a few that run out here but they are not fast they only run 9.0's @80.

I dont like it when they run cause they driver straight through the water and drag it up through the launching pad.

What kind of tires do you have on there to pull a 1.49 60ft.

Later.

Quads aren't that hard to get them fast at all. I got a video of a fox body gt racing a banshee on kazaa.

Dark, we run hoosier micro sprint tires. 61x10x10 59x10x10 or 18'' or 19'' Jr dragster tires
Andy, see if you can get me that guys name and #, he must be on a big motor, mine is a .040 over 350cc

All I remember about it was, it was yellow, and it was a 2 stroke. I will talk to him next time I see him, but there arent many test-n-tune nights left, it might be awhile before I see him.

You beat that C5 pulling a quad trailer too?? hehehe

Congrats on beating him and even more for getting him to race in the first place. I've yet to be able to get one to play on the street.
