2 cammed G8's run 12.0x at 114 MPH (video)

[g8_795]

So I got beat but it is close. Reggie was running pretty good today. I will let him talk to his numbers. Roy needs some DR's. He was spinning all the way down the track it seemed like.

My last run was my fastest. It was taking me some time to learn how to launch with these DR's. I am pretty sure I can get into the 11's pretty easy. I was struggling with my 1->2 shifts all day and I finally got it dialed in on my last run. I kept hitting the fuel cutoff and stalling the car.

It was a lot of fun out there today.

Here is a video of one of our races:

Yes.....that was a sweet race. I felt left out. Sorry I didn't say bye but I got a call from work and had to leave that second.

No problem. We thought you got frustrated with the traction issue and left. Do you have plans to get tires any time soon?

[edmanet]

I'm going to work on that.

Dude, you guys are the Maryland R's: Robert, Reggie, & Roy......

Holy epiphany Batman! :)

That video is probably the coolest & one of the closest I've seen. Nice run guys!

When I ran Robert we both ran 114mph but I ran a 13.4. He ran a 12.4 and beat me by about a dozen car lengths. Oh to have a set of tires.......LMAO

Roy, trust me, I totally feel your pain. It seems when you start to make some serious HP & TQ, you definitely need Drag Radials or all you will do is spin.

awesome race and video, btw bllue car sounded sick doing thar burnout

[edmanet]

He doesn't have mufflers on the car. I believe just a pipe going back to the tips.

Roy all you need is a 2.0 60 to run some 12.30's and a 1.8 should put you in the 11's. BTW good runs Rob and Reggie w/ any kind of track prep you guys should be able to go some 1.6's, I think mid to low 1.7's was killer for that torn up mess of a track. - Jay

Thanks guys. I have a couple more videos I may post up tonight. Man, it was a blast today. I want to hit up MIR or Cecil at some point. I hear they are much better tracks.

Jay thanks for taking my car down the track. DRs are next on the list.

[Last_ResorT_G8]

lmao at roberto... that is a good ass race

[g8_795]

haha. yeah that cracked me up. The only thing that could have made it better was if the grey car won. :puke:

Your car is screaming...

[Last_ResorT_G8]

I have some 3 inch dynomax race mufflers on my car... and thanks for the compliment on the burnout.

[locrzn#92]

Great runs, Mike at NewEra also ran 11.98, very impressive how these cars have come around and all the stuff thats available now. You just gotta open you wallet.

[GRRRR8]

Excellent race! GRRRR8 times for both of you.

[G8GT594]

Great times! Obviously at the power we are making all that matters is our 60ft.

[Mike@NewEra]

So, what did Reggie run?

[Last_ResorT_G8]

I ran a 11.98, got a thread on the other forum.
