Nice one there xdclevo....are your pipes off? Loud burnout, but softer on the takeoff, so I can't figure it out ;)

Yeah, pipes off, but the 3500 convertor was WAY too small with a 1.95 60 foot, so very doey off the line. Changed convertor to 4500 and ran 11.90 with wheels up (nearlly :evil3: )

Not exactly inthe same league as some of the fast V8's on here but someone found a clip of my car on Youtube that I didnt even know was there.

Up against an 11 second LS1 I just let him go first so I could run my own time:

M/T street slicks..Launching at 3000 rpm...A 2 step or some ecu work would help... But I'm not serious into drag racing.. Like some of its driver I must say...Very bussy in a manual, can't just dump clutch either...

Looks like that one was all down to the reaction time! That XR got caught snoozing, not necessarily "smoked" ;) ......he was 4 tenths quicker.
