STEALTH 99 C5

At today's rental I ran a best of 9.32 at 150.36 , I'm starting to get the launch more consistent , had a 1.43 60ft on this pass , best of the day was a 1.42 , the car is pretty violent without a boost controller , there's a fine line between spinning and hooking , still on my pump gas tune , ran it a little lighter this time , still a little over 3700lbs , the boost is getting turned up in the next week or so . I really beat on the car today , I was trying to break it and it kept taking it , I must have made a dozen runs , even hot lapped it a few times , my Cartek 402cid motor and RPM 4L80E trans performed like clockwork . Today was the first time I got some consistent seat time with the new set up , we'll see what happens with another 4-5lbs of boost .
As always , the car was driven to and from the track and run in full street trim . I'm looking forward to the next few weeks , I'll keep beating on this car until I reach my goal .

Big thanks to Cartek for having my car running strong and coordinating the rental .

Good seeing you at the track Mike. Your car is awesome to run those times and drive home. Like you mentioned, I kinda feel guilty beating the crap out of the cars but they seem to be holding up to the challenge. 8's are just around the corner.

Hummmmm...

I don't know Mike..
A "REAL" street car usually has a kick azz stereo system!

GREAT RUN!
WAS GLAD TO BE THERE TO SEE IT IN PERSON!

My stock Bose system is good enough for me , plus there's no better sound than that turbo spooling on the street or track .

excellent pass. you got a chute on that thing yet? Lets see a pic of that setup. Looks like you have some time left in it. Didn't appear the turbos were spooled up when you left, but came up quick.

Thanks , I've analyzed the video , it seems it's fully spooled right about the 60ft mark , and it shifts 1-2 right there , we'll see what happens the way it is now , I may have to drop back down to a 3.15 rear . If I tried to come out harder the car would blow the tires off

Here's a few pics ,

A true street car. Amazing. Congrats on the new best and I can't wait to see it run on more boost.
