A good time to test and tune.

Title: Re: 1/8th mile pass I made 3/4/10 Post by: Diederick/DVK on March 24, 2010, 00:39:55 am amazing 3rd gear acceleration too! looks like there's no end to the acceleration except when you lift off ;)
btw do you not have a headliner installed? Title: Re: 1/8th mile pass I made 3/4/10 Post by: Billyisgr8 on March 24, 2010, 04:59:40 am They allow t-shirts to race? I like the fly by look when you pass the other car, you even took your hand off the shifter ;D

Hey, come to think of it, I know a guy... ;) Title: Re: 1/8th mile pass I made 3/4/10 Post by: Jason Foster on March 25, 2010, 03:48:30 am No guys ... No headliner or carpet in my car. Just shiny paint. Less is more right? Thats how I built it clean and simple.
I keep saying one day I will put one in and carpet it but it never seems to happen. As for the 3rd gear pull yeah theres lot's left in it I do the 1/4 in 3rd also. Thanks for the compliments guys. But I must confess..... The vega had me. He got loose and lifted and it scared me when he decelerated so abrubptly that's what caused the "look" he almost crossed the center line on me. BUT it was still a 7.77 that's not too shabby. Title: Re: 1/8th mile pass I made 3/4/10 Post by: beetlemic on March 25, 2010, 11:32:02 am Cool, what kind of onboard camera do you use?
Title: Re: 1/8th mile pass I made 3/4/10 Post by: Type1/DVK on March 25, 2010, 12:05:23 pm Jason, you launch with 'pre-loading' the tranny? i see that in your vid (parking brake). Super cool vid, seen it to many times now ;)
Title: Re: 1/8th mile pass I made 3/4/10 Post by: Martin on March 25, 2010, 13:00:51 pm love the "looking over shoulder to see where they are" bit! lol Martin Title: Re: 1/8th mile pass I made 3/4/10 Post by: Jason Foster on March 25, 2010, 14:44:07 pm Jason, you launch with 'pre-loading' the tranny? i see that in your vid (parking brake). Super cool vid, seen it to many times now ;) Cool, what kind of onboard camera do you use? Yes I preload trans and suspension with the parking brake, I tape the button down so it drops when I let go. The camera is a GOPRO available from AJ SIMS at Low Bugget |
