New 63 Record???
Guys last night I posted what I think is both the quickest and fastest 1/4 mile pass yet for any 63. Pass was made at Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, IL elevation 632ft. Air temp was approx 69 degrees
I have time slips in hand, but no scanner. I am trying to snap some digital pics of the slips but not having much luck. Anyone with a scanner out there that I can fax the info to so you can post for me. below are the numbers from my best pass.
R/T .475 (I was sleeping LOL!)
60' 1.804
330' 5.003
1/8 7.641
MPH 93.61
1000' 9.910
1/4 11.824
MPH 118.29
Also note that I made three passes in the 11.8's, a 11.887 @117.25, a 11.861@117.80 and the record run posted above. Run was made on the Corsas with 21psi.
There is video of the 11.871 pass and the 11.861 pass, not sure about the record setting pass. I am waiting for the guy to e-mail me the footage of my passes, as soon as I get it I will post it. He said he was going to post on You Tube.
I also handed it to a Ktech tuned Z06 a couple times last night...with video proof!

Great consistant times now we need to get your trap speeds to 119 again. ET wise once I see the slip you will be 1/100 faster than the NOS CLS 63., But still MACHC5 has the trap speed record, and Mr. Gixxer is right there as well .
So post up some slips. Most impressive to me is your 60 ft and the consistant 1.80's thats really great. Man do we really have a new ET king of the 63's????
Great job Jim, timeslips and vid please :-)

Great job Jim, timeslips and vid please :-)I sent you a PM. Call me, I can fax you slips if you have a scanner or other way to post. I am trying digital pics but not having much luck. I will keep trying.

Actually not, I posted my findings on the CF Airbox thread. My best pass was with the stock configuration, however if the air temp was 15 degrees cooler and the car got to cool down for close to an hour and a half. Track closed before I could switch back again. I am sure the VRP CF airbox would post an even better E/t given the same temp and conditions.

Jim,
Congrats, you need to get into some bracket racing with that thing. Times that consistant are impressive. Those times would have taken the money at the event I was at two weeks ago. I am interested to see what it runs with the Mickey T's mounted up.

Jim, you need to run this beast at ATCO on Friday, the day before the MIR event. If you can run at -1400 ft DA and 46 F temps, your times should easily drop down to 11.60s, maybe even 11.50s.....
I can't wait......
