x275, my new favoritest class O8.5 is cool too! i love small tire stock suspension stuff. TT5 is cool too, but i'm a radial fan at heart.

Re: Not bad day at the track
Wow, 26 MPH from an 84 jet. Thats pretty sick. What does this car weigh. These are some outstanding number for what you have. Even the 10.7 pass with a 12.1 350ci is moving IMO.

Damn station wagon proving the pulling the tires doesnt mean shiit, LOL.
How hard does your car come down from the inside, is it not too bad or do you have to be ready for it?

Re: Not bad day at the track
Do I understand right that you went from 11.17 to 10.74 by switching to E85? How do you like running the e85? Really encouraged by your setup because I'm putting together a similar setup right now. It will be a 13.5to1 350, gm crank on E85.

Re: Not bad day at the track
The first hit off the trailer shifting at 7400 it went 10.78 and i was like this is a fluke. i drove straight back to the staging lanes and it went 10.79. I couldnt believe that it ran that good.
I DO NOT have a a/f monitor in the car!

Re: Not bad day at the track
That particular wagon, along with Kenward's wagon, might have a trick or two up their sleeves.
Love this shot of it, coming down, but one rear is still off the ground -

Re: Not bad day at the track
TRZ has alot to do with the wagon sucess, along wth atillio@ double A performance. Atillio and I are working on a new K-Member for my car. It is going to be a 3 piece design,and will be using TRZ lower control arms, like this but this is for a mustang

Re: Not bad day at the track
Correct, when the car was on C16 it ran 11.17-11.23 on motor. I already had a Q850 gas carb from Quick Fuel, i then ordered the Metering blocks from jegs installed them called Zack @ Quick Fuel for a little help with the idle air bleeds. I jetted it 6 numbers from what the gas carb had to start with.
The first hit off the trailer shifting at 7400 it went 10.78 and i was like this is a fluke. i drove straight back to the staging lanes and it went 10.79. I couldnt believe that it ran that good.

How much of a shot is a 85 jet?

Knowing those guys, I'd imagine you know Enrique(the joker), Sean, and Ari. - Those guys are the likely the only reason I didn't blow my first nitrous combo to the moon. - sucks when you drive under your scoop......
Any chance you're coming down to run X @ the Tomatoes?
Roughly 225-250.

Re: Not bad day at the track
I haven't met him, but from what I've seen and heard Atillio is good people. - I figured he'd be knocking out more of those 3-piece k-members as soon as he had some donor cars to build off of. Him and TRZ have done wonders with the wagon, but that thing still sees more air time than a skate board at the x-games, lol. That thing is nasty, glad I don't have to run them.
