randizzle 10-18-2008, 07:22 PM you need tires!
Cobalttc05 10-18-2008, 07:23 PM oh there ya go thank you sir
SlowLSJ 10-18-2008, 07:24 PM dude i dont know... car is a freak i guess. i am scared to put DR's on it because of the axles... i already broke one a month ago

Thats awesome man. My best run with my mods was 13.5 @ 108mph. Congrats on the badass trap now get some Stage II axles, and sicks =D

thanks man, damn your car runs good to.. i have the slip how do i post it lol: i am a nooob
BoostedYards86 10-18-2008, 07:38 PM Holy trap speed batman... Damn I need to get back to the track. All this cold air is helping ppl out way to much and making my times look shitty lol
Rodimus_Prime 10-18-2008, 07:41 PM This looks like one of my passes lol
ralliartist 10-18-2008, 07:54 PM I'll just copy and paste the same thing I put in your thread on the redline forums
Your trap speed is inflated from your crappy driving. If/when you actually get a good launch and run the car hard, you won't trap but probably 105ish and run a mid 13.
I'm not talking shit, so please don't take that offensively. I'm just preaching the truth.
SlowLSJ 10-18-2008, 08:06 PM same here :)
/\ nah dont worry about me man its cool
stock 17inc falcon AZENIS RT-615 225/45
now i am running a 3in turn down in to a borla XL-R muffler.. could be why it had so much top end. there were was an LS1 there that i raced and he ran
13.3@104 MPH and i ran like 14.4@108 something and caught him in the end. LS1s pull like hell up top
but let me asked this, even with crappy driving and tires how many other people have traped that high before? i know of a few but thats it

Tell me about it, I trapped 100mph stock. Only one to do in on this site or the only one peroid. Bone stock 100mph trap. We must have freaks :lol:

i dont know.. my car hates me now
R&C_rallySS 10-18-2008, 08:21 PM Do you warm up your tires? Do you drop pressure in both front tires?
SlowLSJ 10-18-2008, 08:33 PM Do you warm up your tires? Do you drop pressure in both front tires?
no not with street tires, i dont warm them up... i drop the tire Pressure

yea...a lot of people don't realize if you spin your ass off you inflate your trap speed...
SlowLSJ 10-18-2008, 08:57 PM yea...a lot of people don't realize if you spin your ass off you inflate your trap speed...
i agree, but not that much more to it then just spining here
ralliartist 10-18-2008, 09:47 PM I retract my statement about his trap speed. There's a reason he trapped that high. I figured it out. Will anyone else? Who knows. Once I hit up the track again, I'll tell everyone why.
compucarnut 10-18-2008, 09:57 PM yeah, the reason he trapped so high is the dismal 2.4 60 foot. Whenever I 60 footed over 2.1 in my mustang I would usually trap 1-3 mph higher. Still, 109 is very good regardless.
StreetDreamz 10-19-2008, 10:48 AM High trap speeds means you suck at driving. All it means is you spun the shit out of the tires on the launch.

04YellowGT 10-19-2008, 11:30 AM The cold weather is helping your trap speed too. I see your in MI. I'm from Northern Indiana and I know the last few days have only been highs in the 60s. If you raced later in the day or at night your talking 50* temps and that is gonna pick you up some decent power.

ya it was about 50F out... i am going to dyno here in a few days i hope to put down 300+ to the wheels. we will se
HeavyRightFoot 10-20-2008, 12:49 PM Sounds like an easy launch with a sneeze of N2O.
hatrickstu 10-20-2008, 12:54 PM your car is not a freak, you cant drive. sorry
i agree, but not that much more to it then just spining here
actually it will.
Sounds like an easy launch with a sneeze of N2O.
no it doesnt, it would be way higher on spray
light'bolt 10-20-2008, 01:03 PM lol, I trapped 107.19 my first time out, lots of wheel spin in first and a little in second, it was also 60* outside though.. 18 in tires though looks like you had 17's
Steven Flit 10-20-2008, 01:06 PM at least you know your not heat soaking :lol:
hell of a 14.1 run :twothumbs
mcphatty 10-20-2008, 01:13 PM i dont quite get how spinning the tires off the launch results in higher trap speeds. anyone care to elaborate?

lVlemphizStylez 10-20-2008, 01:52 PM i dont quite get how spinning the tires off the launch results in higher trap speeds. anyone care to elaborate?
you're spinning in place, your covering less ground while gaining MPH
mcphatty 10-20-2008, 01:57 PM wouldnt that just increase the speed of your tires rotation though? if you're spinning, the car isnt moving as fast as the tires
light'bolt 10-20-2008, 02:02 PM probably something to do with wheel inertia or something like that. When you finally do hook your moving just a little faster, kinda like getting a running start.
lVlemphizStylez 10-20-2008, 02:06 PM wouldnt that just increase the speed of your tires rotation though? if you're spinning, the car isnt moving as fast as the tires
you can gain velocity without covering as much ground...You've broken traction, the traction force is no longer impeding the torque input from your car. When you regain traction, your car can be at a higher MPH while having covered a shorter distance. The acceleration of the wheel will increase, due to less resistance (constant T-in) so you can reach that higher instantaneous velocity in a shorter distance, of course since you're covering less ground it's taking you longer to finish the 1/4, and once that traction force comes back into play that higher instantaneous acceleration you had is now lowered dramatically
mcphatty 10-20-2008, 02:15 PM ah, i get it now. thanks for clearing that up
ralliartist 10-20-2008, 02:29 PM 17in rims!
more to it than that.
BoostedYards86 10-20-2008, 03:11 PM ralli i have no idea why he trapped so high, and my 13.6 trapped so low... please explain to me... 13.63 at 101.7??? He ran a 14.1 at almost 110???
mcphatty 10-20-2008, 03:12 PM I think the bottom few posts on page two will answer that question

i trap that exact speed and run a mid 12s on street tires :)
SlowLSJ 10-21-2008, 07:59 AM you can gain velocity without covering as much ground...You've broken traction, the traction force is no longer impeding the torque input from your car.

hmm, i found a few guys on here that had a crappy 60ft like me. 2.4 2.5 and only traped 104=105 2.4 60ft means they where spinning just as bad lol
lVlemphizStylez 10-21-2008, 08:13 AM not just the 60 ft applies....if after the 60 mark you're burning through second, that plays a role too. You can spin for more than just your 60 ft...
Blown 4-banger 10-21-2008, 03:34 PM Ahhh, reminds me of the good ol days. The days of the 14.1 @ 108 on pump gas in 90 degree heat. I remember I ran 14.1 @ 108 with a 2.65 60' lol. During the winter I ran 13.5 @ 113 on race gas, but I don't ever say it because the score boards were not working that night, and neither was the ET slip printer. The only way I knew what I ran was my friend listened to the announcer. So there isn't any PROOF that I actually did it :(
1BADSS/SC 10-21-2008, 05:57 PM so close hitting 110 it wasnt even funny. its done it before but he clutch just couldnt take it :(
