NYIRP 6/26 Friday

brian, you aren’t helping. you need to relax with trying to defend your engine/setup/ford/etcetcetc all the time.

^^ haha

who cares who makes it, if its fast its fast (coming from the neon owner).

agreed.

what did gtr mike end up running that night? who ever was driving timed that let off perfectly!

from what i heard he was slamming the brakes so he didn’t get thrown out. i was meaning to say hi and officially end the BS but never had the chance

well… I only saw a few runs, he went like 11.36 @ 88 or something. so had to slow it down. I saw the 11.50 that was right on lol. he did a full pass at the very end :snky: maybe gleason is working on a different edit, The GTR record is only like 10.85 or somthing right now.

All I’m saying:

Stock “Ls1”:
5.7 Liter
~280 Wheel
~400 lbs
10.1:1
Maximum RPM: 6200

49.1hp/l
.7hp/lbs

Stock “5.0”:
4.9 liter
~190 wheel
~450 lb
9:1
Maximum RPM: ~~6200

38.8hp/l
.42hp/lbs

Stock for stock the “5.0” is an inferior motor compared to an LS1. So what the 5.0 has lower compression ratio, so what it weighs more, and sure it’s an older design. It doesn’t get around the fact that it’s inferior. It doesn’t make it a bad motor, no no not at all. The parts are cheap and they are pretty reliable. However, unless your tossing a shit load of money into it, they just don’t make the power an LS1 has.

End of arguement.

Yeah those are my shots, my brother was taking them while I was in the car most of the night.

First time EVER at the drag for me, the car could go faster but I suck at launching and I’m pretty sure the tranny blew up on my last run of the night. Rear end is binding too, so I lost a lot.

Gleason got my “best” run on vid, 14.99 @ 90.94mph, 2.0 60’ When I get it rebuilt, I wanna go back, I KNOW I can do better.

i hate that :snky: crap. ha.

jesus hes probly got that record killed. edit: gtrmike that is.

I just don’t comprehend why if I post some information about my car related to hp or track times or kills why any number of people on here have to start the “well if you had an Lsx blah blah blah” Its so fucking old.

dont take the bait, and maybe it will stop. noone actually cares about whether it’s an ford or gm or whatever. they just know you’re going to get all sandy vaginestic if someone cracks a meaningless joke about your car

Damn it, you’re like the kid in class who told the other kid that Santa isn’t real. Don’t ruin the fun

thats gay. im sure the track owner would of let him run all out to see what its max is if he would of asked.

It’s so easy to get this kid fired up about his mustang :lol:

+1 lol I normally would not fuel a fire either but he called the ls1 a POS :frowning:

So are the rest of you guys going to post slips or can I just give up on promoting the drag race results thread. :banghead:


thanks gleson

i will gladly post results if i ever actually make it to the track this year

The owner let him make 3 full track passes at the end of the night, I think he got down to a 10.93 if i remember but still missed the pump gas record

not to bad. i rode with him the other night and it felt good. ive never in my life been in a car or rode a bike that shifts faster then that car lol:eekdance:

i dont really have a slip worth posting… just a high mph, but everything else was poop
