BlackJeepSRT 11-23-2008, 06:51 PM Nice vinny! :D I wanted to go, but it was too late. Wasn't worth driving down at 11am.
billyboys 11-23-2008, 06:51 PM Great runs...Thats a strong runner for what lil mods..
FLACO 11-23-2008, 06:55 PM Good to hear Vinny. Any reason you aren't running the 93 octane on the Predator? Just curios, that's all. Congrats once again for breaking into the 12's:)

I tried it and it was doing the high 12.9
Vinnysrt8 11-23-2008, 07:00 PM Nice vinny! :D I wanted to go, but it was too late. Wasn't worth driving down at 11am.
That the time i actually left the bronx there was no one at the track it was great.
BlackJeepSRT 11-23-2008, 07:05 PM Really? That's a little surprising. So when does Atco close? :D

They are open until it snows.

Vinnysrt8 11-25-2008, 05:29 AM I dont have the times slip its in my car when i get back from school i will look but 0-60 ft was 1.6 on all the runs
Grip Grip 11-25-2008, 06:25 AM Nice find Mario. :)
Vinnysrt8 11-25-2008, 06:32 AM Nice find Mario. :)
that was a great find.
tomsws6 11-25-2008, 08:24 AM You said that you pulled the fuse for the abs and transfer case? So you ran those times in 2wd???
Matt McKenzie 11-25-2008, 08:34 AM Great times Vinny! Good job!!!!
QBNKID 11-25-2008, 09:10 AM You said that you pulled the fuse for the abs and transfer case? So you ran those times in 2wd???On his first post he mentioned that he pulled those fuses only on his 5th run, that's why he ran a 13.719, seems about right after lighting up the rears during the launch. :D
Vinnysrt8 11-25-2008, 10:16 AM the 13.7 was with the abs and transfer case pulled i spun all the way down the track so the last run i just puller the abs fuse.
1BAMFR 11-25-2008, 10:18 AM the 13.7 was with the abs and transfer case pulled i spun all the way down the track so the last run i just puller the abs fuse.
I have never pulled any of my fuses nor tried it in 2wd
tomsws6 11-25-2008, 10:47 AM is it pretty safe to run in 2wd?
QBNKID 11-25-2008, 11:26 AM I was told by junior666 that after he had some 2WD dyno runs he had some transfer case problems. That's good enough for me to never run it in 2WD at the track or at the dyno. If I ever need to dyno it, I'll find a 4WD dyno somewhere.
Vinnysrt8 11-25-2008, 12:41 PM dont run it in 2wd i did it b/c my tc is making a noise and now its at the dealer getting fixed.
Vinnysrt8 11-25-2008, 12:42 PM 1/8 mile time
8.240
8.242
8.220
8.268
9.007
7.992
S8ER01Z 11-25-2008, 03:42 PM They are open until it snows.
That's crazy... tracks here are done early November and we don't usually see snow until december... DA is finally -1500+ and there is no where to run :(
Vinnysrt8 11-25-2008, 08:20 PM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zkw8KSkaWdc
some one took a video of my jeep this was the 3rd run
QBNKID 11-25-2008, 10:13 PM Damn you Vinny...! :D I was looking for that 7.9 on the 1/8 mile all day on Saturday, but couldn't get it, I spun in all my launches and all I got was 8.0s all day, if I would have hooked at least once I bet I would have gotten that 7.9, I wish Etown had the same track prep that ATCO has.
Your jeep looked awesome racing the Mustang. GOOD JOB!!!
BlackJeepSRT 11-25-2008, 10:30 PM I got a 12.7 @ 103 but only a 8.1 1/8. Weird. I guess I have more top end than you. Mopar CAI > Volant! :D
Vinnysrt8 11-26-2008, 03:42 AM thanks for all the compliments.
