oh sorry
here they are, although I think when posting mile numbers weather conditions should be noted as well,
217.9 mph, stock goodyears, whipple with nitrous(150 shot), built motor and tune by(fastlane), stainless works exhaust 110deg heat:eek
here is the break down on my car,
started life just like anyother gt, once I got her it was only a matter days or so before the whipple went on, that wasnt enough so the smaller pulley went on and that wasnt enough so the nitrous system went on, and that wasnt enough so here is the latest on the car
we pulled the motor, did a compression and a leakdown and this baby was perfect in everyway, really broke my heart to have to tear into her but tear we did, ported the head, put in bigger custom grind comp cams, new wiseco pistons, increased the compression a bit, blue print and balanced all of the rotating assembly put her back together fired her up took her to dyno and on the first pass with no tune, on boost alone it made 800 to the wheel on a hot day. we were able to make about 825 to the wheels on boost alone with a very conservative tune 16 deg timing, we could not put too many tunes on the sct but this car will make every bit of 850 to 880 on boost alone with an aggressive tune, but we left it like that so we can tune for nitrous, on the first pass with a 100 shot it make 909, and when we put in the 150 pill it made 939 and the next day I put on the boost a pumps and without changing anything it made 962, it wants the fuel and its running out on the top end,
the next project for this car will be a meth injection system that will be plumbed under the whipple to cool the incoming air, that plus the nitrous and the built motor should hopefully put her well into four digit territory, we will have to wait and see:wink
stay tuned
Weather conditions.
Gentlemen,
Weather certainly does have a big effect on the numbers being posted here. Soroush made this run during the absolute worst conditions of the day. About 1:00 in the afternoon, very high humidity, sweltering heat, and with a stiff quartering headwind. Density altitude was probably around 3000 feet. Most of the GTs running that day saw their best times very early, or very late in the day after things had cooled off and the wind had calmed down.
I'd be willing to bet that if it had been a cool, zero wind day, Soroush would've been pushing 225+MPH. Maybe even 230 mph. :cheers

I had a belt tension adjustment that I finally got a tool to fix in the early afternoon. After a few easy runs and a couple of back to back runs my wife did, I went out hot and did 187. I really feel this gal has more to give without the headwind and heat.

Hello Terry,
We met at the Scottsdale Pre-Rally, Don & Charlies.
I have the Black Mark II, with the FRPP racing exhaust.
Congrats on the great run. I am glad Shadowman was able to help you out so you could make those impressive runs. I wish I could have been there.
Please keep us posted when you & your girl hit 200+ MPH.
FYI. Stay in 5th gear.
Take care.

Hi Greg, Thanks! We sure did enjoy meeting you and all the other great people at the rally. Maybe you can make it to Mojave? I think Chip is going to make it. I think this is an addiction....
Happy Thanksgiving!

Updated again.
Shoot - should have asked color .......... :biggrin
So far looks like (approximately):
Stock - 160 to 175
Pulley & Tune - 170 to 185
Whipple - 180 to 195
TT and more - over 200
Makes you appreciate a 200 plus run - takes a sh*tload of power to get you there.
Keep posting - the more data we have, the more trends we will be able to see (tires, etc).
