Wish us luck!!!

We are testing Wednesday night with more boost at Texas Raceway. trying to get comfortable to the new setup and to learn the boost controller a little better. I'll try to post a video Thursday.

good luck!!

make sure all the chebbys have the cameras on the dash so we can get a good look at your acceleration

Good luck and God speed Ford brother.

you better get her lined out and bring your azz to the bash !!!! cause turbos suck and blowers blow






j/k ...yall be safe and take a bunch of video

I'm glad I am a better motor man than camera man. I failed to get any good passes on film. I did manage to get some really cool shots of my feet with some awesome background noise. we fought ignition troubles all night. I guess we have a bad coil. the first pass we could barely do a dang burnout and couldn't stage very well. after a couple times prestage he just went in tried to make a pass. 2.15 60' terrible time boost didn't come on until after the 330. 78mph 330 and 129mph 660. We switched coils and went a 1.35 60' but brought in the boost too fast had to get off and on to still manage 141mph. no pass had good times so I will keep them to myself. we gathered a lot of data and have all the suspension issues worked out. I already ordered a new coil. all this was with a max of 15 pounds of boost.

As long as everyone was safe right??

Might order 2 coils, on to keep in the trailer!! I guess we can never have too many spare parts.

Glad it was somewhat productive

still very impressive mph at the 1/8 ....... better luck next time out

Hope you get everything sorted out soon man. very good mph's still

we read all of the data logs this morning and found the problems. sometimes you just overlook the small stuff. along with the coil we had some other items that we need to fix in the computer. we went through 725 lbs of ice too. dang. glad we own an ice machine and have connections. we usually only use about 35lbs per pass but we were running the car a lot and the engine and transmission are cooled with the intercooler water.

for the fox body guys, I think you will appreciate these numbers. we scaled the car 3260lbs total (required race weight is 3250 after the run so we have about 220lbs of lead in the car), LF 861, RF 867, LR 764, and RR 768. pretty close to a 53/47 split.
