Here is the story of how BigRed almost stole the N/A record ...
A few weeks ago my clutch wore out, I want to try something differnt but I really didn't have any extra $$ at the time. I see a post for a toasted fidanza and a new F1 blade style clutch(CHEAP.) I bought it from Hiss and rebuilt the flywheel, and put it all in. While I was doing this I decied to gut the cats, and remove anything extra on the truck. The first trip to the track was on street tires and I managed 12.5(100+ degrees out side). I couldn't afford DR so I found some G-force KDW's for the back, and I have 2 spares for the front.
So yesterday I went for it, I basicly gutted my truck and headed out to sealy for a private track day. The race weight had to be near 4900lbs, weather was hot and I had a head wind. The time slip is below (car 1001, left lane)...
The only two mods I added were the flywheel and gutted cats, so coming from a person that actuly races the aluminum flywheel saves a huge amount of time off your e.t. I slipped the clutch worse than a normaly do launching and it still seems to be fine, it didn't "toast it" after a pass like some people on here seem to think.
So trainman stick your light weight flywheel back in and lets see a n/a 11!!!!
I may have a video later...
