Eddie, the runway was just over 1/4 mile if I'm not mistaken. I was rolling out from 45 or so. With the lack of traction and knowing how fast we can get to 60 mph from a dead stop on a prepped track, I didn't see the help from a roll on comparing what it would have done in the 1/4 on a prepped track from a dead stop. We are going to take the silver car to the 1/4 mile and see what it will do on the same setup. (hopefully its not too cold after Sema to visit the track) I could be off but I would think that the blue vette would run easy 7.90s @ 180's at the power level it seemed to be at. Very fast car!

 

Have you guys ever ran that monster on 1/4 mile?

 

 

Cool vette and a pretty cool Lambo at that light next to the FGT.

 

Looks great with those rims.

 

That's what I like to see. Full weight street car. You can strip down any car and do 7's etc. But to see full weight, "real" street car doing this is so much more special imho. Nasty Vette. Can't help but think that this setup in the lighter Z06 package might be even nuttier?

 

Hard to believe people slagging Eddie for not making an event when he's known for overcoming trailer truck failure and simply driving his car to texas, going 230+mph, and driving the car another 1000 miles back home.

 

i,m going to MIR this weekend you should bring the car the biggest domestic vs import race of the year

 

Eddie I mean no disrespect but my Porsche weighs 3070 lbs. and makes 1230 whp! With that being said I was 15 mph off of Kevin's Lamborghini and 17 mph off of the LMR Vette! You would have had to bring ALOT more than you think!! Those ****ing cars are fast!!!

I'm not trying to take anything away from your accomplishments but your 164 mph pass in the quarter is 20 mph off these cars!! Just saying!

 

dude are you kidding me,take it to the 1320ft dynoand then talk. lf i do it from a 60roll i'll just hit tip 200 and now i'm changing my gear so i will go 210 in fourth. not to hurt your feelings 165mph 900hp. the car makes 1360hp 36psi going to MIR this weekend.

 

Still waiting on the 180mph timeslip.............

 

does google images count?

 

Eddie,
You have been at this forever and I have enjoyed watching from afar and also enjoyed meeting/hanging with you at the TX Mile in 2007. What is your highest trap speed in your car ? And are you saying that re-gearing is going to greatly affect this trap speed ? Good luck in your runs this weekend, we all would love to see monster results from your Porsche.

 

Who/what/when is this 180 mph timeslip ?

 

Video or fail.
