Those SRT forums aren't making your language look as Bad @$$ as your car now, right?

when we ran at great lakes all the times were very very slow for some reason. all the drivers thought that the times were off. it could have been the fact that it was 1000 degrees and 1000% humidity.

With some practice you should be consistently in the very low 14's.

I'd hope so anyway. My lowly NA 2.5L has run 14.6 @ 96...

What are you running for rubber? Are you having a hard time hooking up? Those 60fts might not be all that bad if you don't have teh right tires to match up with all that power.

I am running Falken Azenzis (sp?) up front and G-force ta's in the back. The 60' foot times are most definately me not knowing what the heck was happening and just trying to get a good hookup. All that happened on that 3.3 60' was wheel hop bad, I thought I broke something. when I relized things were ok I shifted to second gear and punched it, so I was around 2500 rpms and the zetec final drive doesn't like that low rpm. the other two was like this. the second launch I bogged down hard, and the third launch I wheel hopped reletively bad. By the way, Demon, I need you to take my car to the track to see what the cars capable of

Very impressive! Hehe my SE is on your tail...NOT... But i did run 15.021 @ 90.43, I WILL get into the 14's but the end of the year dangit! I have yet to optomise my Y-pipe...anyone good at welding?

Anyway, you do have a super fast car trapping at over 100mph, you should be able to get that bad boy into the low 14, mabee high 13's. If you have LOTS of wheel spin, remember sometimes you have to slow down to speed up...

Yup. Same for the WRX drivers...shame on them!

Which Azenis do you have? Sports or ST-115s? Did you heat them up any? Try using stiffer, taller rear suspension, and get more weight on the front wheels. Also, some drag radials or even slicks would help cure those short times. I've found that my Azenis Sports aren't as sticky as they used to be. Only 7,000 miles old, and I smoke all 4 off the line.

This was running extremely lean peaking above 18:1 between 4-5krpm and the rest about 15:1. I need tuned but I have to figure out my problem before I tune it.






Ack your not running your car like that are you? You better drive it easy if you are, and hope you havent hurt anything yet!

As for what the problem could be, how long since you changed your fuel filter? Also, what kind of computer management are you running or are you running an FMU?

I know how it feels to lean out a SC car...it cost me my bottom end.
