I decided to head out to Barona to check out the 1/8th-mile drags, over the weekend. There were a couple of my DSM buddies racing, and a buddy with an extremely fast Fox Body Mustang. Here are some pics!
My buddy's 1g. HX35 with a BEP housing. Link. E85. Has ran a best of 7.6 @ 99
This is my buddy's Mustang. 5.3 liter GM truck block, stock internals, Turbo 400 trans, T76 turbo, MegaSquirt, 110 octane, runs consistent 5.9's @ 116-118mph in the 1/8th. Total beast.
Freakin' bad-ass Avanti. You never see these, let alone at a dragstrip with some meaty slicks on the back!
...and pullin' a wheel, while we're at it!
Random mis-hap my buddy's 2g. It ain't a DSM until it has to get pushed off the track, right???
Possibly the most quintessential DSM picture ever? I think so...
Don't try this at home
I saw this thing run a 5.7x @ 124mph :shock:
Captain's log...
Someone needs a welded diff....
Beefy...
This thing ran mid 9's! SO cool!
FP HTA68, Link, E85. Has done 440whp with this setup, and has done 11.60's in the 1/4, trapping like 124 I think.
The most bad-ass VW truck you'll ever see
S63 AMG V12 bi-turbo, and the dude's wife was driving!
Puts on a good smokeshow, and then ran a 7.4 @ 97mph
The Mustang I mentioned before, pullin' a wheel. I should mention that he paid $375 for this car
An actual '98 TSi AWD
This car started life as a FWD automatic, and now it's an AWD 5spd. Go figure!
Lolz
Another 2g, who was there for moral support
