12.308@116.7mph!!!! HELL YES!!!!
 

A RAN A FUCKIN 12.308 LAST NIGHT!!!!!!! I DID IT!!!! :cssNET:

excuse the shitty scanner quality, i used the office coppier at work, but i'm car 339 in the right lane....

I launched at about 5500rpm and they spun for like two second and just fuckin hooked like nothing..... For the first time i used full throttle all the way through the damn quarter and had a 116mph trap!!!!

Unfortunately that was the only run I could do that night, I went around again, revved it to 6 grand, dumped the clutch and heard... SCRRRRRR BANG!!!... So now i've successfully snapped BOTH of the halfshafts in the axle leading out of the tranny.... When we get the axles on, I might even need a new clutch I'm thinking... The tranny itself seems to be okay.... thats a good thing at least

BTW...if you're wondering.... the left lane driver is a kid with a 99-04 V-6 Mustang..... lol he kept looking over and revving with his K&N filter and actually laughed when he saw me put my helment on.... The only time he was ever close to me during the entire race was at the staging line :lol:

"Whoa man do you got like a 300 shot of NOS?" he asked after we were done. "That sounded like a four cylinder! I mean I have a V-6 man! What the the hell!"

Kids these days are watching way too much Fast and Furious....

sweet :twothumbs

nice..

God damn

Damn son good shit

Nice times dude, i hope to join you soon in the 12sec club.

Very nice!

Good drivin' sir! :twothumbs

Great time. Congratulations. I would go celebrate. http://justblowme.com/images/smilies/bottle.gif

Congrats on red lighting the take off. If it was my track they would void that run.

Good job on the times. Glad to finally see it can run 12's. :)

I know, I was a little anxious and too jumpy... I red lighted like a mother, but it was wednesday night drags, basically the same thing as Friday's Test and Tune night.... so we weren't racing for anything...

My time there was more like a "test and break" lol

Hi GrandAm -

Outstanding!

With a better 60' time you'll be in the high 11's.

Great run! :twothumbs :twothumbs

best regards -

mqqn

sweet ass run

congrats

good lord that grand am is fast. I was going to bust your balls on the red light but sneaky already took care of that lol. So I will say you ran a 12.6 Still freaking awesome.

its doesnt matter if you red light or not... it starts timing after you brake the beams... so its still a 12.308.

what did u break?

HOLY SHIT MAN, nice!

im here thinking it was rob, and its this guy in a freaking 89 grand am. im pissed now. Good times tho.

what engine do u have in the GA?

what engine do u have in the GA?

Sweet time! That's very impressive! Keep it up. :)

Wow frkn sweet dude! Fastest Grand Am in the US mebe?

Nice...dude...11s are thatclose. Get 400 hp axles, go at 6000 and dump your exhaust (IF YOU RUN ONE). I hope you make the magic 1-1.

BTW help us future 2.4 Turbos out and throw up some pics of your engine bay and set-up.!!

Nice!

check my gallery for some pics and thanks guys....

Too bad my car's out of commision for a while... Gotta wait until the next paycheck to get some new axles, and we're gonna put the new head gasket on this Friday, the engine's already torn apart now, we're just waiting on the part

I snapped the axles in two, anf fried the CV joints leading from the tranny's differential housing.... about 450-500 bucks worth of shit..... Thats what i get for punishing her, but she ran my 12's so its all good

Redlighting does not affect ur 1/4 time. Time starts when you leave the beams.

Cool ass car , damn . I LOVE sleepers like this . Great job man :twothumbs

Ya even got a nice lil bundle of destruction for the wall of shame in the garage:lol:

Nice times! At least you ran an awesome pass before the axles broke! Definately nice work though.

Damn, nice to see a Grand Am that f-ing fast.

That car moves. Get the 60's down and you will be in the 11.s you might want to get your hands on some slicks.

Congratulations! The best part is that you break shit and you don't get all ass bent about it, you just take it in stride. Good luck and hope to hear you are in the 11s soon!!!

89 Grand Am? Can't you read my signature, better yet my user name?! I have a 2003 smart one....:lol:

congratulations!

sucks about the axles though...

LMAO ROFL

so True...sad but true!!!!!

I call BS.

First of all you have a 2003 GT. That means you have a 3400HO V6 but you say you have a 4 banger which would be a 2.2l or 2.4l and neither one of those engines came in the GT.....EVER.

Second the pics in your gallery are stolen from HPP website.....that isnt your car.

You can go here to dispute this if ya want.

hmmm the plot thickens...

hey 3400, nice that people are watching us get these things faster , but the "bunch of boy racers" comment isn't entirely true... maybe 98% correct... lol

edit: I jsut read ur post on their...kinda fishy...holding comments

I'm not saying it's not possible, and in fact I really want to believe that Gran Am is built the way it is, but look at this website.

Clicky.

Look at all the pictures on that site, and tell me this picutre isn't of a turbo kit from the 3.4l engine.

I think this new guy may be on to something, but again, I'm really hoping he's wrong.
