Somebody in a Mars Red C63 is going to join in.

The weather also looks like it's going to be fantastic w/ a high of 68-degrees and sunny!

I'm headed down the night before. A few others mentioned cruising down together the morning of. Be sure to be there by 10:00am!

9. MoMorg, 2009 G8 GT <---- Has not confirmed
10. 99Blkcobravert, 1999 Cobra (2003 Cobra Motor) <---- Has not confirmed

----------------

I'm going to be paying the difference out of my own pocket to keep the cost @ $165/car for all the other cars in the event we don't reach 10-cars. If we can get a few more cars involved the per car price starts to come down and everyone benefits. Call your friends fellas, all are welcome.

I'll also find out on Friday what other local cars Gene was able to get. Either way this is going to be awesome. Expect a ton of photos and video!

I'm really shocked not to see any BMW 3-series cars. The 335i and M3s can be quick as hell when modded. You'd think they'd want to join in.

 

Sweet, I was hoping avenger could make it I'm asking around for some more participants so hopefully I hear back from them soon! Would be nice to get at least 15 cars.

 

Yay! Let's set up a meeting point for those of us who are going down Friday morning, so we can all head down together.

 

Thanks, nrgy. That would be sweet.
Glad you are coming down, avenger.

 

I'm looking forward to it! Thanks for setting this up!

 

B.E.R.U.A.N.G is trying to get his buddy with an M6 to join.

Gene at Woodburn has a few cars that might join too . . . one if which is in the 9's.

I'll be sending an email tonight to the confirmed list. This is going to be awesome.

 

He's 70% sure, Hopefully he can confirmed the latest on Wedsneday.

Any one from Seattle are going to drive down on Friday morning? 7 AM?

 

12 hours and counting....can you feel it?

 

Car is packed. I'm ready.

I will be at the Eastgate Tully's (by the Toyota dealer) at 6:30am for anyone who wants to caravan down...

 

Damn! I really wanted to get down on the last one but it was cancelled and I just now saw this! How is it going? Wish I could've seen what my 335i could do...

 

It was a freaking blast. Thank you to all that came out today. Collectively we made over 150 runs. Pretty impressive.

Below are the best two runs, sorted by ET and MPH for each participant. These are all uncorrected. DA (according to Dragtimes) ranged from 500-700ft today; based on the heat/humidity at the track today I'd say that is a bit understated.

On to the results.

We have a ton of videos and photos. More to come later tonight when everyone gets back to Washington State.

 

Wayne,
Congrats on the Run!!
Another 11 second C63!!

Gotta have soft shoes to run these cars!!

 

Congratulations to everyone on some good runs. Wayne good to see that the headers without a tune gained so much. Around .3 and 4mph. Also about a .1 on the 60'. Wish this would have worked out for me to come. Sounds like a blast.

 

Wow this is really saying a lot for the Eurocharged tune..... beat the kleeman tune WITH the MHP headers

 

I had a hoot today guys!

Super: thanks a TON for setting this up. Paypal (with some extra thrown in) is "in the mail".

Drag radials v. street tires make ALL the difference. I am confident I would have had very low 12s if I had drag radials. I never did get a really good launch.

Oh, and the GREAT thing about a private strip rental like this? I think I had at LEAST 30 runs. I'll have to add up all the timeslips I have :-).

Some photos below. Videos to come...

 

Thanks. I made five 11.7 runs @ ~119.

1.796 60', 11.744 @ 119.18 MPH (1/8th 7.595 @ 94.59 MPH)
1.782 60', 11.753 @ 119.17 MPH (1/8th 7.600 @ 94.50 MPH)
1.769 60', 11.754 @ 118.87 MPH (1/8th 7.595 @ 94.40 MPH)
1.788 60', 11.760 @ 119.12 MPH (1/8th 7.605 @ 94.41 MPH)
1.783 60', 11.761 @ 119.00 MPH (1/8th 7.607 @ 94.46 MPH)

I was actually amazed at how well this car hot-lapped. I know there was more in there if I would have let it cool for a good hour. Both avenger and nrgy have the power to join me in the elevens. They just need some DRs.
Thanks. I'm going to dyno this combo in the winter when it's 20-degrees cooler and then test out the MHP header tune (designed for these headers) at the track/dyno.
Whoa there. That is a horrible assumption. You can't look at the ETs alone ignoring all the other data. I edited my post above to include a MPH-sort. A much better indicator of Horsepower.

Anyhow, B.E.R.U.A.N.G's car was neck in neck with the P31 stock car all day long. They actually tied ET and MPH (low 114's) twice when they ran heads-up. I've got all 150+ runs in front of me. It wasn't until I layed down about 2/3 of my Nitto tread on a well prepped lane when he made an incredible pass as he finally got some traction on those street tires.

 

You rock, cek.

 

This was not his best launch, but I got it on film and it looks (and SOUNDS) great!

Lol. Love it. Track prep was certainly hit or miss. I blame a certain red car.

You mean this one?

All that VHT . . . gone in a matter of seconds.

He's going to be famous for that one.

We should really make a new post for all these photos and videos. I've got a ton I need to process.

No more posting the bad launches. LOL
