Before I did any suspension mods on mine it was 4710 ready to race with me in it. If I remember right, I think it was running 11.40's around 120 mph at that time. I was able to shed a little weight when I did the 4/6 drop, 5 lug conversion and other small things. It ultimately weighed 4550 ready to race with me in it when it ran its best. I do remember that a few weeks before it ran 10.46 @ 126, I had it running 10.90's @ 126. I don't have the log anymore, but the it flung the water pump pulley off of it on the 10.46 pass and I remember this being the reason it only trapped 126 again. For the life of me, I can not remember where on the track the belt came off of it. I wanna say it was around 1000' but I really don't remember.
This does have me intrigued though, so I have been grinding numbers through the old calculator. At 4175 lbs, I'm thinking my truck would have run somewhere around 10.teens and 132 mph.
**** man, I want another truck now. lol

Travis based on your 1/8 mile speed, it seems you MAYBE lose your water pump 100' from the finish line and thats being generous. It takes an amazingly drastic thing to happen that late in a run to effect a time bu as much as .2 seconds and your trap speed is maybe a single MPH low, maybe. I don't think you would have had 10.teens on that run had nothing happened. Kurt has a 3 MPH advantage in the 1/8th trap speed for reference.
The other thing to keep in mind... this was his only 1/4 mile pass of the day and its been his only clean run since the truck was last changed. As I mentioned before... 10.45 wont stand long and look for speeds upwards of 135 MPH.

What I was saying is that at 4175lb I think mine would have ran 10.teens at 130+ with the tune up I had in it that day.

New thread is needed for that, agreed! I will say with a high level of confidence that the 1900 wont outgun a properly set up D1. A 2300... that could be up for discussion. The thing to remember though is that an F1 is a very easy swap...
