The Derploader

[Eric Smit]

most exciting. is this weight loss doing it for you?

 

[sx sonic]

Holy commitment lol. What's the wifey think of that?? Well it is more cargo space so maybe she'll like it.

BTW intake mani

 

[Preloader]

Are you on the list for intake mani?

I figure I'll be about 100 lbs lighter than when I ran my 15.0 flat last season. Plus I have much stickier tires, ZZP downpipe, TTR lower mount and 2 tune updates.

I should be under 14.5 with all this, but I'm fighting my optimism that it might be even lower than that.

 

[sx sonic]

I'm not on the list, and will probably never buy one, nothing agianst the product its just a huge price with a low return Imho. I was just busting your chops . Derploader is Racecar and must have Max mods

100lb drop, better tires, and atleast 8 more Hp. Yeah id say your gonna do significantly better than your last run

 

[Eric Smit]

I hope you hop like I did and get a 14.6.

 

[Preloader]

I'll do a couple runs before I decide if I should smoke my tires for traction.
That might give me a little extra edge. I'd estimate that I'm at least 12-15 more hp. Vince gave me a generous bump in my timing per my request on my last update. It created a dramatically noticeable increase in power.

 

[Eric Smit]

I didn't burn them at all. I just took off. no spinning at all.

 

[Preloader]

You're saying you had no traction issues on a hard launch?

 

[Eric Smit]

only the first run when I was the first down the track and launched too high. other than that it was just hopping like mad if I launched too high.

 

[Preloader]

Well I know the track is a little grippier than the street, and I hope it helps, because I break tire on the street hot-dogging green lights and 1-2 gear NLS's.

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

I ripped through 1st and 2nd NLS tonight first time trying since pulling the abs fuse and it spun till about half way through 2nd. Lots of fun

 

[Eric Smit]

ditto on that, but when you watch the track officials cleaning up the start area and their shoes are sticking, I feel good.

 

[ThatTmoGuy]

Yeah the track is mad sticky

 

[Aonarch]

Love it!

 

[Preloader]

I'm pretty dialed in for Wednesday night at Sacway. My buddy was there on Sunday with his 9-sec Chevelle and said the track is extra tacky. I'm weighing in right now at 2,548. Tune is dialed in and chirping NLS's even on the BFGs.

I will say after commuting for a couple weeks without the rear seats, that the exhaust volume levels inside the cab are insane. I'll be surprised if Smit reads this and doesn't have his seats out before the night ends.

13 sec sonic?

 

[Preloader]

There has to be a first, I'm trying my darnedest to make it me.opcorn:

 

[slitzell]

Hey Vince, did you have your cf body parts clear coated?

 

[Preloader]

Not yet. If the fiber fades, I'll just paint'em.

 

[slitzell]

Not yet. If the fiber fades, I'll just paint'em.

Heard it, that is what I figured. I am in debate, I have this heavily chipped stock hood, and i am comtemplating getting the cf one, but I think I would want to paint it black, in order to keep it low profile. My plan may changed once it is on the car of course.


Let us know how your day at the track goes!
