Default 2011 ISF Pulls the front wheels in Drag Race

Here you go, the proof that this car can pull the front wheels with all the mods. Intake, Headers, Exhaust, 150 Shot of Nitrous right from the line and M&H slicks. They only come off the ground about 1-2 inches for about 10 feet so you have to pay attention, but the car does pull the wheels!

This particular run was a 7.17 @ 98.96mph. The dial in times on the windows were from the night before. There were 2 classes of cars, Pro and Super Pro. Pros were mostly street cars, I was the only Super Pro to drive to the track and drive home, not on a trailer.

Great run you can clearly see the front tires come off the ground.

That's awesome! When are you planning to run 1/4 mile? You could be the first F in the 10's. What DA are you running?

I know you've put quite a few runs down with this setup now also which should answer some questions about the ability of our trans to hold the torque of the pending SC release. If it can hold 150 shot off the line we are in good shape. I'm sure you are well over 600 rwtq with that setup. Have you had any issues at all?

Nice! Do you have the tune as well? And I'm def interested in seeing 1/4 mile time/trap speeds!

I've got about 20-25 passes on this setup now so I know the car can handle it. I'm pre loading to 1500 RPM's and I also pulled the connection to our dual intake outlet. So the secondary outlet is open from launch so I get maximum airflow while spraying.


I now live about 600 miles from any 1/4 mile tracks so it will be some time before I get to run on one. I believe the DA is roughly 1000ft give or take 100ft. Maybe someone can do the calculation and conversion for me to see if it would break into the 10's.

I am currently not running the tune and unsure if I will get it since I am running Nitrous. I don't know if it will compensate for such a big shot of nitrous.

Does anyone know how to do the calculation? I would love to know if I broke into the 10's!

This guy ran a 11.1 with a 7.36 second 1/8th. I'd say you would be in the 10s!

I've got 2-10ths on him in the 8th. 7.17 was my best
