14.88 @94.6 mph at 5,000 feet!
roughly a 13.9 at sea level!
with no traction and really bad reaction times.
I'm going to have vids of the run as soon as my friend uploads them as well as a vid of my dyno run.
I'm number 3400.

Well on that run wa swith street tires at a bad track. the dotn let you run in the groove. so no traction was present
I prolly spun to the 60'
I cant wait to see the vid of my car in action!
I'm gonna go bug him ot get it up.

Next mod is transmission
lots of custom fab stuff gonna be built. So I'm saving up
then I'm aiming for 12's up here with no more nitrous than what I currently have.

I wanna try and get into 13's without any type of boost. then tranny work, then boost :D

Pretty nice run for NA man. Especially at that altitude. Looks like you need some drag radials now.;)

Yes that first mod for next season
drag radials mounted on soem center line forged wheels.

first priority now though is store expansion.
I'm getting ready to pull out of the intake back order and get the wait way down. goal is to have 40 in stock by jan or feb. I"m going to do my best to make that happen.

Nice. :thumbs: Although I can't imagine a whole second difference at sea level; could be .6-.7 though. Good runs regardless.

The GTZ next to me that I raced runs a 16.1 up here
and a 15.1 at sea level

our altitude kills us:(

yeah, I was kinda doubting the whole 1 second thing until I looked online at some site with altitude correction and here is what I found at the NHRA site:

5000 feet. .9380 (elapsed time factor) 1.0661(mph factor)

so if you used those on his times... it would come out to

13.96 @ 100.85

I'm sure it isn't an EXACT science.... but definitely shows that 1 second of difference isn't too far from the truth!! Nice times!! and nice vids too. :)

Way to go Jon... and thanks for getting me those headers in time for the Philly meet. I ran my personal best of 14.9 at 91.1 Can't wait to see what the 62mm tb and stage 2 upper mani can add to that.:thumbs:
