this just in... my aunt might be around tomorrow night to hang w/doug- i probably won't race because of the full-ish tank situation, but it looks good for me to at least come and watch!

13.6! That's no joke, congrats. 1.4 second improvement, sounds like someone's figuring out how to drive pretty well, haha.

I can't find what you have done to your car though, quick mods list? Those DSM's get quick easily!

yea mamma we will... i beat my best by a hundredth :roll: getting a little frustrated w/my car and my driver :o

although i have to say, that time i launched a bit high (6k) and lit up all 4 felt pretty damn cool!

but it was certainly an eventful night - don't forget the maniac in the rotary that almost slammed into the wall from his burnout, and the turbo lincoln that went 7.74!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: i was pretty glad i gave it up for that last run and watched- that was cool to see!

chris- she upgraded the turbo , hence the major drop in time (took the seats out too :wink: )

go mamma! despite my own disappointment i really am happy for ya!!!

You will get there. Infact I know you can.

Yep went from running a 15.0 with a 13b/td04 to a 13.6 with a 14b/tdo5. Atleast the car is where its supposed to be at with the right turbo that it was supposed to come with the car in the first place.

Oh and the seats where ripped out. The stock front seat is heavy as hell!! I'll be looking at some lighter seats in the future for this car and doing some other mods to make it lighter.

EvlEgl
05-13-2006, 02:03 PM
Hers mods Include...An Exhaust, and A Cone Filter, Lol.

Even though it was the 5 of us, I had a blast, The drive there was Great! And being prom night for ALOT of schools there werent that many High school kiddies running around...Which meant it was dead for Most of the evening.

I knew Allie's car had that in it. She's Catching me :)

As for the SRT4 driver, Just anoter exmple of why you guys dont get credit in the drag racing world...This guy wouldnt Shut his mouth and was complning about how to get Traction...Me and Karl simple suggested AWD or RWD and he laughed like we were kidding. Nonthless Karma came around b/c His car didnt make it to the staging lights on his last run and he wound up pushing the car off the track.

Ash you'll get there Kiddo...Time/Practice and another one of those 6k launches will do it for ya :)

lol @ scott calling me 'kiddo' :-p
but thanks- yea, if i can boost at the track like i do on the street, and launch well, i think i'll get it.

it was funny - i was telling my dad about it and he said 'sounds like you need more top end... might be time for a bigger turbo' -hahaha :rotfl: thanks dad!

LadyTSi
05-13-2006, 07:31 PM
Thanks for the Video Karl!!! love it!!!


Yea i am catching Scott but it'll be a little while before i pass him. Had a great time....

Beat an EVO 2 times but at least he was cool about it... the SRT got what was coming to him./... kept hearing " she has to have a bigger turbo.,.... Is SHE running on pump gas? .... Oh well without everything taken out she wouldn't be that fast!"


After he broke i went up to him, asked him what happened and he said CLUTCH i then ( smiled ) and said "Oh well i only ran a 13.8... he replies with the fact he would have beaten me, so walking away i said " Ah nah i would have driven more aggressively if you ACTAULLY raced " yea i was being a little ****y but for over an hr i listened to this guy bash me.

And your right Scott,,,, he is why FEMALE racers don't get taken seriously... but oh well i ran my personal best and had a great time//// ( will fix my garage tonight )

Typical SRT - 60 fts own them and the fact most of them are young kids with ****y attitudes it just isn't cool. It sucks that the car has such a bad rep when they are actually really fun. O well. . .

BTW I have an SRT-4 but i don't act like that - i'll be there tomorrow to post my times, this will be the first time running on drs.

My car did what I wanted out of it, my runs went like this -

12.8, 12.7, 12.7, 13.2, 12.8, 12.7, 13.0. The best run of the day was my 12.705 @ 109.35 w/ a 1.937 60ft.

I'm only spiking 19 holding 14-15 (3rd gear). For having less than $2000 invested i'm content.

I didn't upload any of the vids or pics so if ya want them just ask...

carazyguy
05-14-2006, 05:03 PM
Nah just bfg drag radials at like 18 lbs, i still spun a bit in first, i was striving for a 1.8 60ft but the car didn't want that.

TehWagon
05-15-2006, 09:43 AM
DAMN you people with higher 60's and LOWER times!!! :furious:

Congrats, Allie!

Looks like you are getting much better at launching the car too. 1.8, 60ftr is pretty good. I bet your clutch is much happier with you now. ;)

How much boost were you running?

Here's my best 12.7 of the day. . . I finally got the upload to work. I need someone with a zoom camera for better footage, you can't tell by the vid but I had two cars on that vette.

That is kind of high on the stock fuel pump. Did the car feel like it was hesitating at all?

Great run.. Those little SOBs make a ton of power for close to nothing.
I wish I had traded the Mini and not my SRT.
