I did some Testing and Tuning tonight at Music City Raceway with a 75 shot. The car pulls like a freight train and I'm confident there's a tenth or two still on the table based on the trap speed. That's all.

That's moving.

1/4 mile estimate?

 

7.4 should be good for a 11.5. Each run was heat soaked like crazy, so I'm sure the car has an easy 7.3 and maybe even a 7.2 the way it sets. The 7.2 would net me a 11.23, which is my goal this year.

 

street tires? or slicks

 

You'd think street tires with the high MPH, but I was running Mickey Thompson ET Streets.

 

guessing your running 18"? I thought the brabus were street tires, either way that's damn fast. wish they'd have you a 1/4 mile time

 

I don't follow what's meant by "the beans" expression. I'm an introvert, so I really don't get around.

Technically the tires are drag radials I guess, and can be run on the street legally. I was going to run them on the SL550 wheels I bought, but I decided I liked having 19" rear wheels too much to do it.

 

brabus.. damn autocorrect on my phone ha

 

lmao

 

Nice numbers

 

Nice! That trap speed is pretty crazy... NA's struggle for that in the 1/4....

 

Somewhere in Murfreesboro, a Porsche owner just bought more go-fast parts...

Must... beat... the Chrysler

 

He's got a 10 second porkchop if he can get it to launch/hook properly. He needs something like this:

 

LMAO!!!

Once upon a time, he had four wheels digging into the tarmac... and was faster

 

It was close

 

75 shot and a crazy 1.66 sixty footer

 

That's simply insane. I *might* have to come up to Bowling Green to watch this...
