http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBOton1D02w Here are some street legal runs we made with the Buick. And some footage of other cars making runs. We were using the M&H 275/60/15 Dragradial slick. This tire was taller then the normal tires we normally used that had the same tires size. We had some trouble getting the same ET's because of that. But we made some good runs. Robert Noeken
Funny how the guy in the turbocharged hairdryer kept losing to you. Your low end torque got the best of him every time at the starting line. Good job ! :TU: John Biggs
Tnx! I uploaded Part 2 so enjoy watching that one to! The Engine is an 11.5:1 all Iron Stage 1 engine with only the S-Divider intake being aluminium. A very rough idling Lunati cam, with no vacuum left for the PB. An 850 Holley DP, with 83 jets in front 84 in rear and bigger squirters. We used an SP400 with 4000 high stall untill 2006, when the casing broke in the rear tail section after having made over 350 runs. Since then It has an TH400 unit with an 2800 stall convertor. Best time with that transsetup was an 12.321 ET using BFGOODRICH 275/60/15 tires.
Is that a 1km race? I thought I saw a terminal speed of 170MPH! I would LOVE to do 1km dragracing! -BC
Yes it is a 1KM race! :Brow: No, sorry the 170 speed is in fact 170KPH. If it was a 1KM race, then those hairdryers would blow up for sure at there first run. I never have seen so much cars (aka 4 bangers) blowup there engine, trans, frontaxle and radiator/intercoolers!:kodak:
