New speedrecord at 1/8 131 MPH

mrsyclone

8.76/161 mph AWD POWER
Finally things are looking better. Was at a local racetrack and did some testing. The trackcondition was terrible almoust worse then regualr asphalt. The only positive thing was that the track was only 15 min. drive from me, and it was sunny and 88 F.

The best time was 9.1/156 mph 60 foot was terrible 1.65-1.7. I made a new speedrecord at 1/8 mile 131 mph "power"! :) The wing took about 6 miles from the topspeed, but the car is much moore stable.

When we are gonna fix the 60 foot time, You can imagine what kind of time it´s gonna be :) I put a camera at the rear of the car. Look at the wheelspin from the start! Yes it´s allwheeldrive with too much power, and bad trackcondition :)

Nice record, that wing seem above 120-130 it is holding you back A ton. can you adjust it were it is level with the bed? just to reduce the air pressure going over the wing. have you tried running with it off the truck?

it looks like he got out of the groove. maybe that could have been one of the reasons for poor traction???
