Project RoadCone and update...

Well it’s been a bit, but I thought I would give the forum an update. Last November I ran a 9.61@156 with a manual transmission and got asked not to come back. So I started preparing for this year. Cortex Racing in Cincinnati Ohio took on the task of doing a 10pt. legal cage. The process was very involved to get the Ultimate tight fit. We added a parachute and addressed all the safety needs of Evil. I have shared some of the pictures in this thread.

As for any good build, I believed it is time to add power since I added some weight. I contacted @Whipple SC. Dustin and I decided it would make some big power with Whipple’s new Gen 5.... Cobra Jet setup with the bigger intercooler bricks and alternator relocation kit to lose 40-45 inches of blowe belt. I’m super excited as our first goal will be to take the S550 manual transmission record ... on our way to the Ultimate Goal of an 8 second slip.

Steeda has also assisted in addressing suspension needs and Cortex/JRi coilovers will be assuring to get the new power to the ground while hopefully taming the chassis.

I have also included a video done by BA Motorsports that gives a HD walk around of the car. I hope you all enjoy the video. Also feel free to add any comments, suggestions or questions!

I didn't know the video of this pass existed until he contacted me today on 6G. It isn't a clean pass at all, but this just shows the potential of the car on a good pass. You can actually see it pull the wheels hitting second gear!!

The Panda currently holds the record with 9.47@149. Time slips and video clearly shows mine went 9.61, not 9.80. :rolleyes:

Terry has 5-6 mph on everyone else on the list and he's about to add at least another 100-150 hp. He will decimate that list this year. I guarantee it.

Panda is auto swapped. You're already number one as far as s550 that actively have a stick shift.

I’m aware of the “Bama” car owned by your brother. The car has been 9.49@136mph. New owner now... has he ran it??

The “Panda” who I know only has one power added and has converted it to auto as 2-tone stated. Those two have been quicker, but none faster..... 156mph says it all. That’s on a soft launch and a couple of times out with that combo.

You keep bringing up this stock MT-82, I don’t qualify for that as I have a Tremec. I believe that’s the reason for his 136mph and not going to 5th.

Thanks brother!! Interesting part is he said with auto swap and no other changes, he gained a solid 5mph!! Can’t wait to see how yours does!

I know your car is insanely fast and also that was my mistake on the transmission type that you have. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b903b52057.jpg that was the video I was referring too

Your MPH though is impressive. With a good 60ft, your car is going to fly no doubt.

Yeah I do. That car has not been running or made a pass in several years. Additionally that record was set with a different engine management setup. That's why that car has an 11-14 cam setup. It was not running s550 ecm. So that was not a s550 record imo.

Thank you! We are currently upgrading the suspension to handle the lower level of the car. Also after a few test hits, if all goes well it’s time for the two step and Send it!
