First 10 second pass!
« on: July 13, 2009, 10:06:32 PM »
One of our local shops threw an event up at Brainerd International Raceway this weekend.  My former best was an 11.0 @ 133.  Friday I managed to run a new personal best of 10.93 @ 137!!  Timeslip and vid below, I'm on the right.
Halon going 10.93 @ 137mph


Still some room for improvement on my 60' time.  If I can get that down to 1.6, that should help put me deeper into the 10's.  This is still on some Sumitomo HTR Z3's, and some crappy rear camber that can't be helping me.

My next pass I tried to launch a little harder to get that 60' time down and ended up with this.  It is a DSM after all...

Yeah, a local guy with a burly DSM has the same problem - axles or driveshaft or four bolt.  He just went with a 9", kind of overkill for the amount of power if you ask me, but his family has some money.

You, sir, should strongly consider picking up a $100 8.8" rear end and going from there.  :)

I'm still on the stock WEAK 3-bolt rear setup, which are known for breaking.

Someday I'll consider upgrading to the stronger 4-bolt rear end setup.  But for now, I'll just continue to let er buck.

congrats man 10's ain't easy. Keep on the lookout for a four bolt and your drivetrain issues in the rear will probably be come a thing of the past. I'm sure the LSD in the four bolt could probably help as well.

im just saying, you had a how many mile axle fail. DSM tards always chalk it up to parts being weak. same kind of retards who say you cant use stock honda axles to go 9's

One of the guys finally uploaded the video.  I added it to the first post just now.

  Another person got a video from behind, right at the starting line, but it may be awhile until that vid gets put up.
