Ocala, Fl Wannagofast 1/2 mile event, Oct 19th and 20th.
 
Who's going. Solidus and I are in. Dynosty has the record at 164.17 mph as far as I can tell.

I think Z Nationals is this weekend. I will be doing this instead. I have been wanting to for a while.

Elmo370z 08-16-2019 04:32 PM

Only 1 other Z in Florida that would easily beat that 164.7, but he is scared to run his car

Spooler 08-16-2019 06:28 PM

Now I got to get some Ignite E90 on the way. I got time.

Hmm. I could make that trip. I’ll look up hotels and flights

FL 4Motion 08-17-2019 10:18 AM

Looks like fun, wife and I might go watch. :tup:

Spooler 08-17-2019 07:15 PM

I have no idea on how my car will do. I will have to release the "Driver Mod" I am sure.

Spooler 09-03-2019 09:20 PM

One month and 2 weeks until go time. I am ready to go see what she will do. I am praying for good weather.

A buddy of mine took his 750whp single turbo Supra to a half mile event out here in California and went 164mph. I'll bet your car does real well. Hopefully I'll get mine to the one out here this year.

We shall see. I don't want to guess a time, I might jinx myself.

You can't say it can if he doesn't try and does it. You get no credit for a dyno queen if you actually take it to the track.:gtfo2:

solidus 09-04-2019 10:03 AM

I'm sure we'll do very well.

Elmo370z 09-04-2019 02:29 PM

It is not about the whp, it is whether you can get the power to the ground and driver mod. If whp was the deal then we should see a bunch of Z running in the 9s for the quarter mile! Does he have the power to do 170 yes, but getting it done is a totally different thing. **** I get my *** handed to me by NA Zs at the track...why driver mod!!!

I can appreciate that too. I have no beef with him not running his car for whatever reason and I know his car is bad ***. I just don't think you can claim his car can do it simply based on whp. There are lot of factors that go into running a car at the speeds that are needed to push to 180 and then beyond that it get logarithmic.

You got that right. I am wondering if I still got it. I am going to have to drive my tail off. If not, I am gonna be the old fart in a midlife crisis car.

F' that...

I’ll volunteer to be the custodian of the pot, I am at stock power, too slow to run away with the funds, so no worries there...

Way too many variables. If we get traction, we could do well. If not, we will be doing good to hit the anywhere near the record.


:tiphat:


If you guys want to place some guesses into a pot, by all means go ahead.

LOL, I will be going all out to lay down the fastest time I can. I won't be messing around. I will probably be grumpy unless I hit the time I want to hit. Rusty at the track grumpy. :roflpuke2:

Elmo370z 09-04-2019 10:48 PM

I’m recordings

Elmo370z 09-04-2019 10:49 PM

170 by spooler, 167.4 by solidus

solidus 09-04-2019 11:07 PM

I'll be happy to hit 165, I'ma lose my mind if I go past that. In all honesty I'll be good if we just go out there and represent where we've all come with the platform. Alot of the folks that show up have a distinct impression this platform consists of Tomei Flamebois. There are alot of us who put some effort into this.
Since the Hurricane snacks are gone I can probably pick up the new race trailer, drop it off at storage and then finally replace the couplers. Maybe next week hit the dyno again.
After that all I need to do is install the winch in the trailer get in some good Area 51 launches, stockpile some E85 and wait.

Spooler 09-04-2019 11:33 PM

I want 180mph. I probably won't get it but what the heck. Gotta set your goals high in life.

Spooler 09-05-2019 12:06 AM

Kevin at Fast Intentions said "Crush the record". I am going to do my very best to put a number up that does just that.

Spooler 09-05-2019 05:41 PM

Ugg, Seb from Specialty Z is going to shift sector the weekend after this event. This puts the pressure on for sure.

He wants every possible way to go fast, Seb wasn’t against the idea
