looks like the 1st vd you got on throttle before he did, i was daydreaming for 2nd vid, and 3rd seems right. Go run the 1320...i wanna see what you trap, cause if that Fbody is 450whp (or are you saying bhp?) its low 12's...maybe high 11's depending on other mods (like stall, gears, traction mods, etc)

Interesting placement for that shift light on that firehawk. On the pillar. Bright as hell...


Good runs

Listen,I don't know Hunter from Adam,but just because someone on a car forum has a lot of posts,doesn't mean they have good knowledge to share.Use better judgment other than post counts.

I like how you ignore the first too where i win but the last run where i am heatsoaked and let him take the hit is the only one you pay attention to.

yes it was 450WHP and he said he trapped 122. If you want you can join our local forum and ask him.

O and btw you can't stall a t56

i didnt ignore the first.. just the second one cause i started daydreaming. I suppose i can watch the video again now that im actually awake.

/w 122 traps, its definitely believable then...but i still want to know what YOU trap. Seems like you have a beast with all these videos.

and fail on the t56. lol. I somehow didnt put the whole 'shift light means manual' thought tgether...again, i was sleepy. haha.

this is a terrible reason to ask anyone or advice. (i didnt know i had that many though...lol. course ive been here for a long time). Hopefully you'll find other reasons to come to me for advice (i'd like to think just genuine knowledge) but i am FAAAR from the highest poster here.


edit: after re-watching them, you definitely took the jump in the 2nd video, and it looked like you didnt gain any ground after that initial jump. The first vid you may have jumped a little, but you were pulling regardless, so win goes to you.

port your heads? do more flow mods and at that point maybe a killer chiller or something. Are you on E85 or just using a lot of meth?

alot of meth and race gas. Head is ported. KC costs to much, alot easier to just do one run, then let it cool off, but them v8 kids have to redeem themselves

Yes, but mines scaled back, if it were actual airflow it would jump to the bottom of the spark map and then just cruise along the bottom, not the ideal situation here
