Problem is no one will believe it, especially em' 5.0 boys.

Oh well, great job Seb! I think your mph up top could be a littler higher but most importantly, 1.4 60ft. at one point was considered an impossibility a few years ago.

Yes the mp/h in the back half of the run make me confuse, but like I have told , I'm suspecting a little 1.5 degre of KR , 12 PSI in the tires, and the most important 13 mp/h head wind.

Instead of that, I have no idea yet .

Sebast i watched the videos and you are on point sir. Fantastic job very proud of you and your accomplishment(s). You've worked very hard and doing most of the work/research yourself. I must concede that I think you are out of my cars/wallets reach.

On a side note. Wow do the rpms drop when you shift from 3rd to 4th gear with the new tranny gear ratio.


P.S. I love the helmet and jacket. I think a 10.09 would be possible w/o the jacket unless you are filling the jacket with helium to make you lighter?

Congrats, that is quite an achievement. Very impressive.

Love to see what bolt-on cars can do. So many guys just keep adding more and more power without really dialing in a setup and getting the most out of what they got. Again congrats.

Bruce , thank you very much. It are very appreciate specialy from you.
Competition and challenge between us are healthy !!!!

So the RPM drop are not ideal from 3-4 shift, that things buse me since day one. So , I will check if anyone could do a 1.13 custom 4th gear ratio. That would bring my shift at around 5700 5800 rpm, instead of 5050 ....

Yeah, my jacket are filled with N2O !!1 lollll very funny things !!!

Is that track in kilometers?


Just kidding, most impressive indeed!!

Did you weigh your car?

Could you post up a screen shot of your HP tuners scan on the record run? I'd love to see your launch points and shift points on HP Tuners.

If you do not want to post publicly, can I ask you to send to me at joegut at gmail dot com? I am very interested to learn from your technique. I will not post publicly you can be assured if you don't want me to.

Congrats again. Very nice accomplishment.

Congratulations, great driving!

Maybe the brand of wax you're using has something to do with why you're down on mph
