Quick vid from the drag strip a couple weeks ago...

I know, not an f-body, but I still have F-body love

I've been doing a lot of work on my little Talon, and got it running real nice. I went to the strip, and got one run in - then the clutch slave cyl popped..

I was still able to drive home with frequent clutch fluid fills, but I got it home without a tow which is what counts $50 and an hour or so later I was back in action. I haven't gone back since - I'll be back in September.

Here is the video from the one run I got in - I launched pretty crappy (1.87 short time) but you can see by my MPH that I gained a decent amount of power since the last time I ran it..

Here's the vid - save instead of stream please

Here is a dyno sheet from the day before I went to the track:

I'll post the next vid as soon as I go to the track. I'm shooting for LOW 12's, maybe high 11's.

Nice run............I bet that WRX guy was pissed!

[JeffM]

thanks

no, he wasn't pissed.. He actually went on to get a 12.2 after that. He's a good friend of mine. He just pulled that motor out though and is going for something more crazy. He made 440hp on that one and he is retiring it

I'm shooting for like 350awhp - it's my daily driver so I gotta keep it somewhat sane
