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
Image

Image

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.
Image

Image

Freakin' bad-ass Avanti. You never see these, let alone at a dragstrip with some meaty slicks on the back!
Image

...and pullin' a wheel, while we're at it!
Image

Random mis-hap my buddy's 2g. It ain't a DSM until it has to get pushed off the track, right???
Image

Possibly the most quintessential DSM picture ever? I think so...
Image

Don't try this at home
Image

I saw this thing run a 5.7x @ 124mph :shock:
Image

Captain's log...
Image

Image

Someone needs a welded diff....
Image

Beefy...
Image

This thing ran mid 9's! SO cool!
Image

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.
Image

The most bad-ass VW truck you'll ever see
Image

Image

S63 AMG V12 bi-turbo, and the dude's wife was driving!
Image

Puts on a good smokeshow, and then ran a 7.4 @ 97mph
Image

The Mustang I mentioned before, pullin' a wheel. I should mention that he paid $375 for this car
Image

Image

An actual '98 TSi AWD
Image

This car started life as a FWD automatic, and now it's an AWD 5spd. Go figure!
Image

Image

Lolz
Image

Image

Another 2g, who was there for moral support

Well, he doesn't really get hassled because he's Military, and they tend to be more cooperative with Military peeps. In general, the cops don't like it when you have out-of-state plates and a California license. They know what you're trying to do...
