10.20 @ ...... Details coming in

 

You forgot to add April fools!!

 

Beat me to it.

 

Cl65 in Florida 10.27 @ 137

 

Well congrats to who ever ran it. That's a crazy fast time for a big car like that.

 

I hear there is nitrous and methanol involved. That info comes from an old Renntech employee., so don't murder the messenger. Regardless of any power adders, thats one fast car.

 

I just got a text? All I know

 

Hooleyboy, not going to murder the messenger, but will educate him. I own the car and it has never had nitrous. As you know from living on this board, I tried methanol in the standing mile and almost burned my car to the ground. Jealous jerkoffs like to spread nitrous rumors. Don't stand in that line unless you belong there.

I will happily place a 20k wager on the fact that the car ran the 10.27 tonight without nitrous or any other power adder. You can fly down meet me at the track and I will pencil whip a check for 20k and you bring yours. If there are any power adders other than turbos, I'll give you 20k. If not, you owe me 20k. I've offered this before in PMs and never had any takers.

For those interested, Renntech has been doing lots of R and D on my car for future Biturbo products. The R and D has taken a while but has paid off.

Here are the splits (video and timeslip will be posted soon)

60' 1.626
330 4.412
1/8 6.682
MPH 108.99
1000 8.629

1/4 10.274
MPH 137.46

 

I think its very cool what you did. Regardless of whatever setup you are running. My hats off to you. Dont want to take away from your accomplishments at all. I think its awesome how fast you getting your car to run

 

Its also cool that you came here and stopped the rumor

 

Thanks mthis.

We were a little surprise as well. Tonight was also the first time we used Hoosier drag radials (275 40 17). By far the best out there. I've tried Nittos, Mickey Thompson and BF Goodrich and they don't come close. Best 60' foot tonight and was actually able to leave the line on boost. A first.

Ran 10.51 last week with a DA of 1400 on a set of Mickey Thompsons that I could not get to work.

 

No problem. Sorry for being so harsh.

To push this CL to a 10.27 took lots of time and effort by the guys at RENNtech. I got a little aggravated because I don't want their efforts being tainted by a bs rumor.

 

Well done!! Such a big car moving so fast.

 

ET: 10.27
TRAP SPEED: 137.4 mph


Big congrats to Steve (SGC) for running this amazing time

 

Wow....!
At those ET's and with hooking up a heavy car with good tires, I'd start thinking about picking up a spare rear.

Tell Hartmut, Nice Work...

 

ok its April 2nd...


For real?

 

Hey Steve,
CONGRATS!!
You are a great guy and well deserving!!
I know that you and Renntech have been working hard and its paid off!!
Now you've set the bar a little higher for us.

Great job!
Keith

 

Congrats! Overall record.. wow... Gonna have to be in the 9's soon...

Amazing job.

 

OK, you Florida boys are setting the bar right now and us New York guys are going to have to step our game up...... Don't worry we're definitely not gonna let you off that easily, were coming after you guys now.

 

Jon you hear that you better start getting the factory freak ready you are the northeast only chance of dethroning the south...

 

hurry up and take those 2 new supercharged cars to the track

 

What's even more amazing about this record is that it was run in Florida in not so decent weather where it's sometimes excessively humid.

 

Yes, we could use some info mods , slip?

 

Thanks guys. Video should be up shortly. Within the video is the timeslip. Also, I sent the time slip via text to a few on the board; as such, anyone who has it is welcome to post it.

As to the mods, Renntech has been messaging the tune and airboxes to make more power. In addition, Renntech installed prototype carbon ceramic rotors at all 4 wheels to reduce rotating mass. And last but not least, the transmission was further reinforced and a prototype torque converter installed. All of the items are in the testing phase to determine if they will go into production.
