Ah, just run it for the freedom of breaking the speedlimit, legally. lol. Can't even describe to you how upset I am that this event is happening now,...when my car is apart. Really really sucks.... Hopefully I will be able to pilot another car or two.\ on that day instead. Either way,..its a cool time

Did some math,..with my six speed and my gear ratio I use....this is what I'm missin
@6250 rpm,....on a 335/35/18 on an MN6 with my runway special, 2.73 geared six speed.
1st Gear :1 69.75 MPH
2nd Gear :1 104.23 MPH
3rd Gear :1 142.72 MPH
4th Gear :1 185.53 MPH
5th Gear :1 250.72 MPH
6th Gear :1 371.07 MPH
Now, I don;t know how much room it will need to get into the 2xx's but,... I was really hoping to do that in a mile easily.

Well, 6th isn't useable obviously, unless I had about 2500hp. lol And I don't know what it will take distance wise for me to top out 5th,... so, I dunno. I really want to get the car to go 220+++ in the mile,...I would like to honestly go 230+ but, I have no clue what I am getting myself into. Soo much goes into that. For example, my fuel setup, which I will be runnning E85 when she rolls back out,...is capable of supporting 2000rwhp. 160lb injectors, driver box for them, and a big giant magnafuel pump. I figure 1100-1300rwhp will get me where I need to be mph wise. I just hope everything holds together. A one mile run is soo much more abusive on the motor then a 1/4 mile run obviously soo,...IAT's,...fuel pressure, and timing tables will come into effect bigtime.
I have great tuners though, so I am confident it'll do well. I could probably have the car slapped together for this event but,...there is soo much changing, I need to take my time and do one small step at a time. Atleast now I can see the light, and I can see the true potential. All just talk though until I can get it to an event.

my bad man. 142 isn't really slow but,..it's about where he traps as well. I'll text him to join the event

Awesome Chris

Sure hope to see that too. I don't know what the headstart means.....maybe a slow roll like I have seen a couple of videos but,..that wouldn't make it a standing mile...more like the creeping mile.
#29
Saw the Headstart thing as well. I'm with you guys, only thing that makes sense would be a rolling start?
I've been emailing people like mad and spreading the word on this and it's not even my event! I want it to be at least comparable to the last runway event we had at the airport. It was ridiculous.
Saleen S7, unfathomable amount of Lambos and exotics. I don't think there was a STOCK Lambo there last time. I am pretty sure each and every Lambo there was twin turbo, it was insane.
Underground Racing and Heffner brought out their toys too.
UR had their rumored 1300+hp Gallardo out there running 0-200mph in the first mile, stop halfway through the runway and hit 200mph again the second mile. It's a HUGE runway, not sure why they are restricting it to only a mile? It's a full solid 2 miles of open road if this is the exact same location as the last event.
Hell, we hit 175mph in my buddy's Bentley CGT!! lol We were the slowest car there.
During the end of the day they had multiple car drag races. TT Gallardos, TT Murcielago, Saleen S7, and SL65. To put it into comparison, the SL65 was absolutely obliterated which is sickening because everyone knows how fast they are.
I can't wait for this event!

Sounds badass. I stopped at Doug Levin's shop today, which is right down the street. He mentioned the last event, and how he was told to go WOT till the speed trap, then hit the brakes, he said he went off road, because it wasn't enough room for that. I don't know if that had something to do with making the event a one mile only.
Sounds like a blast though,...motivates me to hustle and get my car there.
Doug didn't confirm that he would be there but I gave him the site info. I also am promitting this thing to multiple sites,... I wanna see a good group of cars. They say they are limited to 130 cars or soo.
Should be dope
