Up until late yesterday there was a thread with discussion about 1/4 mile times at the Nationals. What happened to it? I can't believe it got removed by moderators. What gives?

No moderators messed with it. The original creator removed it.....

He had a problem with the fact that the fastest SRT-4's in the country are all Mopar Performance S3R upgrades....

Apparently, all the aftermarket guys can do is break shit, can't win a race if you can't finish a race...

It would have been a different story if my new slicks were with and the fact that I rented somebody elses slicks for only 2 passes.

Don't be fooled my friend, Mopar's Stage III is alot more than a stage III. LOL

And the private owners who backed up those runs with their own Stage 3 cars?

Excuses are like assholes, everyone has them Steve....

winning timeslips though, those are harder to come by...

So far we've got a problem with somebody elses slicks, the Arizona car was worried about breaking, and everyone else ran 13's or high 12's...

It was cool to finally meet you Steve, it's rare to find someone who knows what they are doing.

their was a privately owned stage 3 car that ran consistant 12.07's 12.08's ethan ran an 11.9 in the lightweight car and that car has major weight reduction. just image what the private owned car would have done with that kind of weight reduction. i saw and know the private owned car and its basically a stage 3 car with an intake and exhaust not bad for a NEON

You forgot the most important part!!!! Ethan ran 7 11.9's in a row!!!!!!!!!!

Now if that is not consistancy i don't know what is. I have never seen a turbo car run that consistant of times.

john ran 12.07 12.08 12.07 and 12.09 only had one screw up and ran a 12.40 so he is pretty consistant too

it is amazing to watch turbo cars with manual transmissions run that consistant

and ethan is not a drag racer he is more of a road corse guy and he ran that consistant

Back-n-Black · 04-13-2005, 04:05 PM

Very nice. I am glad stage 3 is that consistant for everyone!! Soon there will be times from the Florida peeps and consistancy like that wins races.

Yeah.. That car is hella consistent... Last October, I ran almost 2 dozen 11.80's (colder temps) at Milan only to break out in the LAST bracket race with an 11.754 - and I was spinning at the top end of the track b/c some POS DSM (j/k) oiled the track down so I stayed in it.....

The key to driving that car is NOT spinning on the launch... The rest is acedemic and just requires driver consistency to WOT shift.
