To answer some questions, my tranny was bone stock in these vids, nothing done to or the stall. You will be at that track in a couple months Elliot, the track itself is average, prep is good but it is by no means a fast or slow track, it makes you work for your times

My mods are relatively simple in these runs:

82mm t/b
180mm pulley
ttm fueling
FF long tubes
BIP offroad x pipe
BIP HE
C16 race gas toooon by Tony
car dynode 543rwhp/635rwtq on a Dynojet right before the runs

Race driver seat, no passenger seat, no back seat and braille battery. Track scale said 3860lbs without me in it..... She is a light little girl, the way I like my sheila's!

Perfectly stated.

I can't even imagine what's next for this BEAST. Records will be falling quicker than the ladies undergarments that are lucky enough to be in its presence.

What Braille are you running? That Shuriken I bought doesnt seem to be starting my car for some reason?? It might just be the cold weather, but not sure

Nice passes - You're knocking on the door of a 10 sec pass and it's probably coming soon.

Thanks homeys, I was hoping you would enjoy watching the vids as much as I did. Truly amazing how these 4 door tanks get it done.

Chawkins, you're such a noob at the track! LOL...J/K

It's pretty impressive how it launched ahead of the ZR-1...sticky tires sure do wonders.

Cool vid Craig. Good job making the Corvettes tires go cold...street racing tactics 101!


+2 to pearlpower


AKnight, that battery is not intended for full time use in a MB unless you plan on keeping it on a trickle charger every day/night. The low amp/hr cannot keep up with the constant draw from all the MB electronics.

Yaw, that would be great to trim out the staging issue, post it up when finished.

Hope you and your beast are recovering nicely.

Vette probably went straight to the dealership to sell the car after that run...
