hit the track saturday

ran a few times on the 20's just to see. truck was full weight, tool box loaded, carseat, diapers, baby clothes, etc. LOL just wanted to see exactly what i would run as compared to being on the street. ( 1/8th mile track)

best on the 20's and street tires was a 7.79 with a 1.82 60'. i was impressed! that was n/a at over 5100 lbs.

swapped the 20's out for my brothers loaner slicks. only got in 2 more runs. first was n/a spinning off the line (shitty burnout on my part) went a 7.69 with a 1.75 60'

last pass did a good burnout, slipped a little off the line, went a 7.36 with a 1.71 60'. this was on a 100 shot dry, spraying after the 60' . think i trapped about 91 mph on this one.

all in all i was proud of my setup. stock suspension, heavy as hell.

got a couple pics, wanted video but no luck

on a side note, i was trapping less mph then anyone around my times, thinking because of the baby slicks. 26"x10"x15" hoosiers.


{ the first pic was a launch pic. leaving at 3000 and letting it eat! } looks like good transfer of weight to me for stock setup with shackles.

 

Good times, vids next time for sure.

 

WTF wheres the vid at GUMP... Def hauling the fukin mail.. Next time remember your lug nuts.. Tell the ms I want some new shirts to you bastad, oh and some new seat covers

 

why does your rcsb weigh over 5100lbs?? that seems like alot even with a toolbox. i just weighed in at 4090lbs 4300lbs with me in it.

good times though..

 

That is on the high side, mine is 4550 with me in it.

congrats on the new times, are you going to make some 1/4mile runs with it?

 

great times for sure...mine is 4645 with me in it.

 

my ext cab is 4800 with me in it

 

No kidding on the weight. Mine was 4520 at the heaviest in full street trim on the 20's with me in it. Nice times in street trim btw.

 

you guys have me thinking about going to a different scale next time.

i weighed at the recycling place (dump) it was a digital scale, not sure how accurate though. we didnt have one at the track

 

i am going to try and get some 1/4 times with it. i had too much gear for the 1/4 that day for sure with the 26" slicks. LOL i was turning 3500 in 3rd gear going through the big end in the 1/8th.

i need some 29-30" slicks. gotta talk the new girl into buying them first
