dynosteve,

well done, I was wondering what your 60 ft time was. Is that a quick terminal speed for a 13.0?

[dynosteve]

unfortunatley the 60 foot was pretty slow because of wheel spin I think 2.19 was the best.

[Cobra]

low 2's is ok .. remember the weight ...

dynosteve, what 60' time are you aiming for ?

113 trap speed is getting up there ... reckon you might be looking for about 0.4 secs in your eyes/hands/feet

with that ts .. 12.6-12.7 is there now

hooking up is a problem ... are you getting any hop in the rear or just spin ??

hot DRs and feather the cluctch for the spin mate !

cheers

[dynosteve]

mines a auto and it just spins no axle hop tough, want to get the 60 foot to 1.6 to 1.7. ok I know it's not my cortina that 60foots 1.21 but my ulitmate goal is to carry a tyre in the air.( and yes I will do it)

[fordboy1981]

good luck with that.....

[Cobra]

with an auto ... those figures are even more impressive ...

have you modified the staller ?? load to 2000-2500rpm ??

One of the guys on Performanceforums, Dynosteve, ran his XR-6 Turbo last Saturday night.

In a nut shell ...............

"times are in 13.0 @ 113mph with traction problems"

"but it should have gone well into the 12's and will do with slicks, anyway I'm planning a couple of other adjustments before the next outing in a couple of weeks, what to come home with an 11"

"unfortunatley with wheel spin it was only 2.2 60 foot, you just have to look at the mile an hour to work out what it's capable of"

"we didn't bring the 11psi in until 4500rpm as traction was a problem, we ran 8.8lbs first run and left car in drive and ran 13.4 @ 109mph. The reason I raced my car was to prove the kit that we invested alot of money in works and is reliable"

dynosteve, quite impressive with the 13.0 I saw you run. I was the guy in the old L-series subaru you raced when you had a bad 60 footer of 2.26 seconds (looking at the time card now) and I some how managed to win with 13.46 seconds and you ran a quicker time.

Any plan yet to get a 4WD dyno there? I have a AWD gearbox and I want to get a proper tune on my E6K one day.
