YIKES!!! Lots of passes to go, Gixx beats the record on the first pass...However, we have an R63 that wants a piece as well as another E, and heck this does not begin to discuss the worlds fastest 55(stock) he is likely maticulously planning his 11.75 run on his new Drag Rads.


This is gonna be one heck of a day.

I'm hearing that there have been a few casualties already. Namely an R63's tranny and an M6's clutch.

R63 transmission failure, and Enzoms tires are being re-balanced..

Dam he need to put his stockers back. Maybe the R63 is simply in limp mode ?
M6 clutch oh shi*,

Rob get back out there and rip another sub 12

We've got THE FASTEST tracks here in NJ and as a result a lot of things get broken. There is definitely such a thing as TOO MUCH traction, as is discussed ad nauseum on SupraForums.com. If you hook up too solid, kiss your tranny goodbye.

I'm not surprised by the R63's tranny nor the M6's clutch. Mine is definitely about to explode and is making crunching/thumping noises now when engaging at low speeds. Not good.

Yeah I watched a brand new 335 blow his trans last week. Guess "not hooking" has its benefits LOL.

Interesting, you are in NJ and not at Atco, the horror

hmm an E63 runs 11.95 and oil is 107.00 , perfect
