He ran a new best 1/4...12.5 @ 108, but he missed 5th gear so he coasted through the lights. That was with a 2.2 60'. On an earlier run when he screwed up the launch, he had a 115 mph trap speed This was on BFG drag radials. Man someone needs to put this Zetec kit on a Contour Simon new- '04 Dodge Dakota 4x4.

Contour tips the scale at 3126Lbs. 376Lbs difference (using the ol' track rat rule of thumb that every 100Lbs. lost equates to a .1 drop in ET) would mean a tour potentially running 12.5 + .376 = 12.876. THAT WOULD BE VERY IMPRESSIVE! Mark Semper Fi "They've got us surrounded. Poor bastards." -Chesty

Throw on some whitewall 14" rims with hubcaps. Go Viper hunting. Damn that would be fun. -'96 SE MTX 3L -'98 SVT 1,173 of 6,535 -'05 Mazda 6s, loaded, g/f's ride -Need a 96-00 manual on CD?

I offer PnP Heads for all durtec's details at PnPheads.com or jesse@pnpheads.com for details.
