we need VIDEO's! awsome.

 

congrats Derek, thats an awesome time

 

If you are talking about Derek's most recent run...click on his 1/4 time on the original post...

 

way to go!!!

 

What tires did you use on that run?

 

Derek,

Have you ever ran against a 996 turbo x50 or a GT2 (like the cobra the video), say from about 30 mph roll? I was wondering how bad your car started to pull away?

 

off n20 he should be pretty close to a gt2, probably pulling a car or 2 by 110. On n20 he should pull easily to about 4-5 cars by 110. He should be able to handle a turbo w/o a problem. My car traps similar to his n20 to his and I smoke turbos and gt2's easily. When mods come into play for the P cars it can get pretty scary. From what I've seen the P cars arent very good on the drag strip, but they are killers from a roll race.

 

Congrats big dawg!~!

 

You went from a 50HP N20 shot to a 65HP shot? Next stop is a 100HP shot. You know it's coming, go ahead 10's are close. Awesome achievement Derick. I wish I had the ***** and the money to run with you.

 

Thanks for the love. Running the MT Street Radials on the 16" CCW's. They hook well but not a huge difference from the BF's. But with only 4 passes on them, they are not yet broken in.

DGussin, I'm launching about as hard as I can without spinning. Having a stock stall on there, I can't get past a 1,500 rpm powerload before it starts to break traction. You gotta remember that these things do not look like a stang when they launch.

WayneE, yes it is still stock. I'm spraying with a finger button as soon as I have traction. I'll scan the slip tomorrow.

Evolution, no more 190... at least for now.

Tooth, we don't have cars like that here in Tallahassee. Unfortunately, I never get to run anything that doesn't show up at the track and that is rarely anything exotic.

Vetluver, it's not ***** or money- it's blind stupidity. I was wrong about the 50 shot, it was an estimate. It was more like 60-65. We added about 50 to it for this last run. With only knocking off about .12 seconds with another 50 shot, I'm thinking I am running lean. I'm heading across the pond Tuesday to run with the bulls but will get it dyno tuned when I get back. I think with more fuel, I'll get more out of the upped shot.

Thanks again for the props!

 

Insane Derek! Mad Props

 

congrats! can't wait to see it run 10's!

 

just a little more info--the time starts when your front wheel passes the beam, or if you pop a wheely. another words when the beam isn't broken anymore.

 

Hey Derek,

Great job on the 11s run.

What are you doing about tuning? Chip, EMS? What company?

What offset and width are your 16" rims?

Thanks
Sean.

 

Derek, you should get yourself a wideband in the car. They are fairly inexpensive, especially compared to a couple of pistons

 

If you guys go PM me ill join you all.

Also LACR is a terrible track. usually people at LACR run 1-2 seconds off what they should be running. Ive seen 03/04 cobras at LACR in the high 13s/14s.

Also Derek you are a very sexy man...When you get into the 10s, ill send out a russian prostitute your way.

 

Derek,
Congratulations, awesome times,

P.S. I think you posted the wrong timesheet picture on Dragtimes.com; it has 11.3.

 

stone cold fat, u da man.

 

WOW! That is friggin awesome...Congrats on the time and the trophy

 

WOW an 11.13

Great going Derek, Keep it up, I pray one day you'll be the first E in the 10's and make history

MBH

 

Derek,

One question, what gas do you run in your car at the track??

MBH

 

Russian the best you can do? Shiiiiiet.

I'll send you some French ones!

 

He didnt ask for a girl with more hair than him, and will try to run away at the site of Dereks glorious 10 second *****.

 

Oh god, I've read too much.

Way too much. I quit mbWorld. Thanks DancingBenzos.

 

And, historically, the French are much more likely to surrender, so that's a plus.
