2018, What-cha got??

[Maximus]

Im plugging away on my 84 and hoping it will be out this spring. Id like to see mid 10s ET wise, but just getting it out on the streets would be a big enough goal for me. :)

Whats everyone wanting to do this year, plans, goals, expectations, with your car?

[redfirepearlgt]

The Circle D 258 2C is waiting to go in the 3800 lb full weight street car. It ran a best last year of 10.83@131 at E20 (even with the spare in the trunk). With the addition of the stall converter and a little possible massaging of the transmission tuning I am going to conservative hope for 10.70's this year. The addition of some single rear adjustable QA1's or Vikings may also be in the works. My goal on 60ft is 1.50. That should keep me consistently in the 10's for most air conditions. If not, I may pulley down to a 79mm, install some 56# injectors and seek a little bit more torque and HP. Of course a 10.69999999 wouldn't hurt my feelings any.

I plan on trying a new intake manifold for the 4.6 in hopes of preventing any puddling of fuel and subsequent backfires. I really want to see some 10 second slips with my stock long block. 11.01 at our running of the dozen left me a little disappointed. Haha. But with a stock $400 lincoln engine with 160k miles on it i was pleased. I would like to tweak a few things and get to where i can stay ahead of Chad next year instead of watching him walk a car length on me from the 1/8 mile. I enjoyed it Chad... we will do it again i am sure :)

Touche Monsieur, Touche!

We were a little closer in ET for a while when you were hovering in the low 11s. Then you took off and left me to play catch up. It is always fun racing with you Chad. We have had some good battles the last couple of years.

4R70W swap going in along with Detroit Locker and Moser Axles - shooting for high 10's - 10.7 or so. Cage right behind it.

[draggin50]

Im in need of a clutch... Seriously thinking about swapping in a TH400 and trying some spray. Id love to see some 9.30's.

[98stangv6]

Already swapped the T5 for a TKO600. Keeping the stock bottom end 5.0. Converting to fuel injection and using MS3X. Added a little Borg S366. Hoping to make a few UMTR races this year and see what the budget combo will do.

[PKFIRE]

Just trying to save up for a new blower for my 03 Cobra. I probably won't have it installed till next year. I'm hoping to be able run 11.5-11.9 on my 555R street tires at Edgewater. 12.3 is best I've been able to do on them.

I need new slicks to make this Monster hook hard!!! Lol

You'll blow the welds on the intake! Just kidding those cars love spray. The torque they gain on the sauce is ridiculous. And say goodbye to high iats. My 2.3 car gained like 200 ft lbs on a 175 shot. Try the rxt1200 upgrade before you go auto.

Its got a price!! I keep thinking about moving it. Hate to mess it up.

Im going to get with Mcleod and see what they can do for the upgrade. I haven't even messed with it yet. I need to get it out atleast.

I’m just hoping to get down the track since my first outing with the coyote swap didn’t go well.

I did decided to add aerospace brakes front and rear which with any luck will be on the car this weekend.

It broke the spider gears on the very first pass but I won’t have that issue again. It’s now got a Moser M88 housing, spool, 35 spline gun drilled axles with the pro flange, and 4.56 gears.

[SN95N/A]

I'd just like to get my garbage back together

Daaaaaaamn!!

I was there when it happened - was going to shoot video of his first pass. It was a sad scarey moment cause it wouldn't start right away after he did it and thought it was something else wrong. That track in BG for the NMRA end event is known to eat rear ends and driveshafts .

I blew up a trac lock there in 2016.

Daaaaaaamn!!

Bish was making some torque.

[cstreu1026]

It definitely didn’t like the 6000 RPM 2-step launch.

Maybe some of you soft ass girls should come out and run the XOS Street Car Shootout. 89Notch keeps getting his back broke by a LS Swapped SN95. He could use your emotional support.

I personally quit supporting the series because 1) I thought the series had been disbanded due to tracks cancelling the series, and 2) previous 2016 I got tired of coming to KK to watch you guys and never see the finals because of KK's curfew and for holding their boring bracket series in higher regard than the XOS series by not making special allowances that would allow you all to complete the series when its there.

What kind of ET does it take to be competitive in that event? 1/8 or 1/4 mile?

Wheres the "Come Race with XOS at KilKare, under NEW management!!" post? Maybe post up the rules and such? :bigthumb

Great point. Blowing one's horn through thread hijacking is a real poor example of promotion for a series.

Fast.... 1/4 mile 7.50 passes!! Its no joke!

Toot toot mudda fudgers!
One of SBZs most esteemed members and one of SBZs most hated members is now running the best track in the land.

That's just the LS guys... we are gonna have to handicap for the SBF loyals.

[2Fast4You]

I'm going to just gasket match my intake to my heads, the intake is currently untouched.

So good to hear!!! Bring some of these fast cars from out of state!!!

[Rick93coupe]

That twin turbo nova is no joke. Seriously impressed the hell out of me. For an LS shitbox. :lol:

[evil8]

We will get some Michigan hate going for sure. Jay Payso and his hitters Raj Boaz and JP Delisi were talking until Dan Rensch in the Nova and Jeff Zerkle in the Red Trans Am popped in the convo. Crickets.

[Rick93coupe]

That's funny.

Cant wait to see what this year holds. Should be some good racing now that Kilkare is in good hands!

[evil8]

We are working on an LS Swap class. LS cannot be in a body that originally had one. FBodys ,Vettes, and GTOs are out!

[Rick93coupe]

So the LS has to be in a chassis that works? Gee, I wonder what kind of cars that will bring out, LOL

Dew it!

[beefcake]

sold the 15 2 weeks ago, had it going mid 8's at 3800lbs, now were gonna get after the 18 and see how quick we can get it into the 8's.

hellcat should hopefully be going mid 9's once weather brakes,

and then our 93 project we are waiting on the welder to get the rear done, then it's getting a 347 stroker, full upr setup, along with viking front and rear coilovers

[adragon72]

Did the car go to indy or out west? I could have sworn I seen it on a trailer headed toward Indianapolis.

Im still debating it. Don't know which way I want to go yet.

[USMCPONY]

If you want to go faster. You gotta go auto lol.

[2Fast4You]

I'm hearing rumors of a bunch of guys wanting to step it up this year. That's exactly why I decided to gasket match my intake manifold to the heads, I hope it will be enough! Lol

[cyah92]

Im just spending alot of money on a big ass na engine. Just saying

[draggin50]

Yeah I know it will pick up a good bit going auto. I may start on another fox body that I have setting here in the garage. Maybe a 306/C4 combo with an On3 kit just to start. Then leave the Cobra alone and quit beating on it.

[draggin50]

You missed out on a killer deal! Could've blown right past Shayne with a little 365 inch turbo combo! And be able to drive it all over!

[cyah92]

Didn't have the cash in hand at the time but its all good

[347sc]

Since I got off to a late start last year I'm hoping to finish data logging the 150 nitrous tune and finish out my suspension to keep the front end down and the back from bouncing. If I can 1.39-1.42 with the new parts that should put me down in the low 10 second range. Not bad for a daily driver.

[2Fast4You]

Good to hear, I hope all goes well.

[S281SC]

I am hoping that my new intake and the gasket matching that nxcoupe is doing can get me down there with you in the 10s
