Congrats Ed, at least for your time. I guess you need to get a roll cage for the reason you got kicked out?

Congrats Ed! I am just glad the belt is finally staying on. I agree there is a 6.9 in it just shifting better. Your trans is real notchy.

The black Cobra was flying and still had more in it with the 60'!!

Geez - let me a guess, a big turbo and it takes half the night to spool?..lol

Those short times are de ja vue when I had the big turbo on my car.:sick:

With a 6 second reaction time, it's hard to beat anyone.:thud:

Its a single T-76. To be honest he is still getting use to it coming from a KB, it was his second time out with the turbo. He has a 2 step on order, that should take care of the line.

I don't know Greg. I had a T76 also and even after swapping to a smaller Q trim exhaust housing, It still took me a solid 5 seconds to build full boost. That meant my reactions times were always about a second or two at least.

That was with a transbrake. I doubt the two step will be much help but wish you luck. If it's an auto, I'd think a bigger stall in the converter is the best bet. if it's a manual, the two step may help some, but it's going to have to be set pretty damn high to load that thing by the third amber.

I'll be watching with interest. Good luck and keep us informed on the progress.

All right Eduardo! Woo-hoo! Add another 05+ to the list that will be kicking ass at the track!

That cobra's mph is sick. That car has 6.1X's in it. Geez---I don't ever want to go against that thing if he gets the line figured out...

He's definitely fast but it sucks that he almost always loses to everyone he races...:sick:

It was a sick pass but, once again, he had to sit on the line for 5 seconds after the green to build boost.

He said he was going to FFW next week but I honestly don't see how he'll make it pass one round with his set-up.

Too bad as fast as his car is, a stock civic can beat him at the track...:thud:
