atlanticblue98 Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Planning on going out to Funday Sunday at Orlando Speed World on September 9th to try and get farther into the 13's on untuned imrc deletes.Previously I've had absolutely bald 275 nexen tires and have ran a best of 13.9@101 with full interior, sub, amp, spare tires, all that stuff. One night ran a 14.0@102 literally spinning all 4 gears (car going sideways spinning, scary shit)I now have new tires (shitty 245 primewells) but new tires nonetheless and do not have a sub or amp in my car anymore. I plan on removing the rear seat along with the front passenger seat. Spare tire and jack are taken out as well.I can't wait to go back and try to get it a little bit lower as I've also lost 20lbs myself since then. Gonna try and take a large poop before I run too, every bit counts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
330CubeGt Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 We have to set up a race man!.. I went 2.1 60' 14.0@100 that same night on bald sumis, IRS, full interior with the subs in. Now that its SRA with the nonsence I had in the trunk out with the new conti's im wanting to hit the track again Heads up and ass kickin!

Luis@OrtizPerformance Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Damn dude, I remember I did 13.8 @ 101 with my 99 Gt and only had an intake and exhaust. You tuned yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musturd Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Frank will for sure be in the 13's he IRS swapped his car and it was hurting his launch. But yea the biggest thing is shifting before the car unloads and falls on its face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knuckles Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Ill say this from experience when you enter the 13s zone thats when the "passion" becomes obsession best of luck to you both and be safe out there above anything else.Knuckles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musturd Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Knucks is so right on this. Then you get addicted. I haven't been out that much this year but I've still laid down some 135+mph passes so I'm happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yea the biggest thing is shifting before the car unloads and falls on its faceWell im betting its in the 13.7 range at 101-102 with a 1.9 60". (I think Ryan might be in the same ballpark) The 1986 Posi is a one wheel wonder thats in the car now But im also on street rubbers so i can't leave to hard or it will just spin. I was going to rebuild the posi but i really want a locker so ill just deal with the 1 wheel peel lol.Car has dropped about 250 Lbs since the 14.0 Pass (Figuring in some of the IRS weight) And i got rid of the junk autozone clutch for a ACT 6 puck.

I thought I'd be happy with a low 13 car, got that, now I'm high 12s and keep wanting more, it's a terrible obession/addiction problem. My goal is 11.6 with a procharger, not caging this car!

justinschmidt1 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 You guys need to invest in some decent rubber.Removing weight is great and all but if traction was already an issue you're gonna have worse issue after removing a bunch of weight from the car, especially since all of the weight is coming out of the trunk/ rear of the car.Just saying, not a bad idea to pick up a set of 15x7 tri bar stockers or something and throw a DR or slick on them for the track. Ive got all of like 80 bucks in my tri bars with slicks after paying to get them mounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive got all of like 80 bucks in my tri bars with slicks after paying to get them mounted.Oh I agree, but when my last set of shitty nexens weren't bald (I had npi power back then, so my et and trap blew dick) I still cut a couple 2.0 60'sWhen I deleted my imrcs, my tires were already bald. Even going back with these still shitty but new tires, if I can match my old 60 ft from before my deletes, ill be content. I'm actually at this point more concerned with my trap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
330CubeGt Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I made the ride out there and there was light to no rain, they were closing up when we pulled in...Like 30 Mins later the rain cleared up and it was dry as F about 15 mins up the street from the track at a buddy's house..OSW is so damn annoying that they get 1hr of little to no rain and they close down a 6 Hr event like Funday Sunday...

Luis@OrtizPerformance Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 I have to agree with Justin. Mod motors like being on the high rpm band where as old pushrods have some great low end. Why do you think the 2v guys like 4.10s or 4v guys love 4.56 gears? High compression on the mod motors gives the torque it wants on our mod motors, just ask Brett what his torque curve looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

330CubeGt Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 Having that low end grunt also somes with lack of rpm's. The 302 in stock form is around 300tq +/- as well as the 99-04 4.6 motors making 300tq +/- so saying the 4.6 lacks torque sounds dumb to me as the tq stock for stock is the same. The 5.0 makes its max torque around 2500rpm +/- & the 4.6 is in the ballpark of 3500+ rpm for max torque but the 4.6 motors seem to do just fine getting out of the hole when leaving at the right rpm...

Heads up and ass kickin! Using Tapatalk 2I think what justin meant is low rpm torque. People just assume the word torque is what is in the low end and Hp is the top end. OEM, mod motors have torque but they don't have the oomph like a pushrod does at low rpms to just light up the tires. Off idle in my uncle's 69 camaro that thing will light em up. When the roush was stock there wasn't way its light up off of any rpm lower than 3k.. now I've changed that lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinschmidt1 Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) Yep exactly, im talking low end grunt, theres a big difference when you're making 300 ft lb at 2k rpms vs making it at 4k rpms.Im not going to bother proving my claim cause its pretty much common knowledge at this point.If you have ever driven a pushrod 5.0 and a 4.6 mustang you know exactly what im talking about.

Musturd Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 Justin's right with my 4.6 I'd leave at around 5k to cut a 1.6-17 60ft . The two step is set at 4k with a trans brake and leaves like nobodies business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
