on a shakedown run..... come on!?!

hahaha awesomeness

 

saw this on their facebook. So badass!

 

Wasn't they already in 10's before?

 

Damnnn

 

no wheel hop? k, im gettin the ZZP tranny mounts

 

Lol yup saw it on the FB badass car! it's AUTO too!

 

No, low 11s. I was wondering how long it was gonna take them to add a wheelie bar, from the description they said it shaved .4 sec off. They did this to their grand prix a long time ago.

 

They have already ran 10's. I believe it was a 10.7 in Ryans car on the 5 speed. This car now has a set up to go mid to low 9's when they crank it up.

 

A 10 FLAT ON A SHAKEDOWN RUN... thats whats amazing.

 

yes the car previously ran a 10.7 on the 5 speed setup. this is the automatic trans with a 4500 stall on low boost. the track wouldn't hold anymore than 26psi iirc. the best part is it's consistency.

10.04

10.05

10.03

were the 3 runs of the day

 

Damn son, that's crazy!

 

Wow!

 

was that a wheelie bar...

 

for a fwd, technically not a wheelie bar. helps eliminate squat

 

Pretty badass

 

nice

 

lets see a 9s pass now

 

amazing

 

Damn is that zzp's work

 

Glad I was there to witness it, other's reactions are priceless! Amazing car.

 

we used to make solid bars and replace the rear shocks withthem at the track so it wouldnt squat.... worked the same but didnt look as cool

 

nice!

 

yes that is ryan@zzp's car

 

Making the rear suspension solid is much better then running typical suspension, but not as good as a wheelie bar. Even with solid suspension, there is weight behind the rear tires that works as leverage when the front tries to lift. With the wheelie bar out behind the car, the effective wheelbase is much longer and all of the weight is in front of the rear wheel. Unfortunately, the rear suspension can come into play and make things worse at this point. When running a wheelie bar, you want to set up the rear suspension as light as possible, basically taking it out of the equation. We have not done this on Ryan's car yet. When we do, it will run 1.4 sixty foots, no problem.

 

^^^ thats ideal but we were looking for a cheap solution and a quick swap... we wont have anywhere near your times but we have fun

and i cant wait to see what you get that car to do... good luck and keep us posted
