Couple highway runs down in Mexico (this one is for you Chawkins)

I got a terrible jump on the first run, and it shows.. Runs were from about 40-125 or so.. Both had a passenger in each car..

Woah That a buddy of yours or just some random? Try some dig runs, if he can't drive it will be rape time.

Friend of a friend.. Hes on 315 BFGs, so hes got good traction, but it may have been different from a dig.. Im going to run him again, once I get a pulley and tune ( I think I will put a few lengths on him then).. He does have plans to go to a bigger blower though.. Must be nice just swapping out blowers like that..

Tune and a pulley will do the trick.
Great runs nonetheless.

Scratch, you did not sell the beast?

Oh, and btw, just because he has drags does not mean much in those cars. You have to be a descent driver to be able to launch that car well, even with drags, it will still spin so I would imagine it would be much closer than the highway runs.

You also did damn well hanging with a ported eaton, there are guys running that combo into deep 10's, and few of them into the 9's

Nice run considering there was traffic all up that road. I'm sure you both had to wait for that certain window to open up on the road.
Love the sound of that supercharger when it let's loose !!!

Yea, im suprised he didnt beat me by more.. Even know It says I got the hit on the second run, It was actually about evem, and he even started about half a car length ahead of me on that run..His best run in the 1/4 mile is 11.2 or so..

yea, this was right after a one lane road went into two.. His supercharger was loud for sure..

Its actually not crooked, it just sticks out too far.. There magnaflow mufflers and couldnt push them any further back, because of the suspension.. They sound great, but dont look too great from the side.. Going to go back to the stock mufflers next year..

Aknight, you deffinetly have the best looking Pewter E55 around. The color scheme you chose with wheels and all is perfect. What fogs are you running? The match to headlights is spot on. Are those factory headlights?

Chawkins can attest, the Terminators are no joke!

Your just so smart installing a GHETTO exhaust system on your car that doesnt fit. Why not just install stacks coming out of your trunk? Ricer
