I thought you said you had been over 140 mph? Welcome to tcu rpm limiters Pal. ;). Log torque source next time to see what is up. Try manually paddle shifting it a little earlier @ 115-117 mph. That was 100mphclub’s work around on his ED stage 1.

The one in my avatar I beat. He broke his half shaft about 60’ out from starting line. I spun and axle hopped so bad I waited until 4th gear to hammer it rest of the way through 1/4. lol. They will run you down and go bye bye around 115-120 mph (sooner if the a10 is stock).

Anybody check on Stymee???? 911...???

Holy Phuck...? Is everyone ok????? :).

That 3.55 iron Torsen differential is not cheap either. ;).

Yeah, traction is the key. A few weeks back on the street my car went right up through the top of third gear doing that. lol. Cold street tires. ;).

I paid right @ $34.6 brand new 18 GT off a $41.6 list. This pp package cost me about $3300. No way I could duplicate the parts $ buying separately from Ford.

My 14 GT auto always ran faster off idle than any throttle on the brake. Everyone was always saying 1800-2000 rpms on the 18’s. I will have to try that next time.

Yes it does! I do pull it, but have a little better solution for next time. Just yank the paper part out of the oem filter. Instant drag screen. ;).

They are 275 pilot sport 4s, but yesterday I finally got some hook with 82 degree air temps. That makes a big difference too.

Who you going to put your money on...? Street race from 45 mph roll to take traction out of equation for most part. Two brand new 2020 GT’s with same options premium A10’s w/ drag mode. Both drivers weight about the same and both have 1/2 tank 93 fuel same station. Car #1 has Idaho Potato...

Plus in my experience the total tuning net gain is in direct relation to how many logs are you willing to run (on road, fuel you use) to make it as best as it can be for your particular car. A one log and done car is probably not fully optimized imo... There is a reason Beefcakes cars are flash...

I have owned an 18 pp1 car for almost 2 years and over 10k miles. Well worth the upgrade imo on S550. Once you negotiate a discount off the car you not paying full pop on that PP upgrade. Although that is a big price increase on later 2020 models.

Yeah my last trip I went too low on tire pressure 22 psi. And their air compressor at track was not working. 26 is a good number for street tire. Mine is 3.55 btw with pp1. I have not tried just flashing off idle yet either.

That is one dyno example. Pull in a hundred then do an average. lol Under the curve E85 gains via timing is also worth more than just a peak number...

My car and my buddies car are identical down to the color and options. Only difference was he had 1/8 tank of fuel and mine had 3/4 tank. lol. Pump tune in manual or drag mode car is minimal power gains. You can still add in more timing in low-mid range which is useable on the street. We have...

Depends what you are comparing. A manual car is not generally going to pick up much from just a pump tune. So yes, in that example you are correct. Also the driver of the manual car can greatly affect the outcome. But, a corn tuned 18 should pull a pump car. All things being equal. Take a 18 gt...

Agreed! I do not think it was the gearheads. It was a bunch of “pussies” to begin with that tried out a mustang for the first time that were the whiners. Lol.

I ran 11.91 and 11.92 back to back my first trip to track. Those where 1.94 and 1.96 60 foots leaving on brake 1400-1500 rpm. Last trip my best was 2.1’s (12.0’s @ 121mph) no matter what I did and literally had to bail out of 3 of my 5 runs due to traction/axle hop issues. A Hellcat widebody on...

It is hard if not almost impossible to run much better stock/drag mode stock tire than 11.8-11.9. Drag mode with traction will be the fastest/quickest. My Sport mode (E tuned) is drag mode in automatic. Drive shifts around 7100 and Sport 7500 rpms. I had to pedal it a tad on the first couple...
