Cool vid of me (in the mach) racin' with my buddy Greg (in his '04 Cobra) @ MISSION RACEWAY PARK in beautiful Mission, British Columbia, Canada,

this past September at the MEGAFORD WEEKEND:

Great run. What mods are done to each car?

Larry Warcup

Both of our cars are well-modded; I know for sure that Greg's 2003 Cobra is far from stock
...Aluminator Block, a large Kenne Bell blower (not sure which one). Car is making 568rwhp!
He doesn't get to the track much, so I guess (with practice) he should have kicked the poop outta me, lol!

My 2003 mach1 has a ton of mods to the stock block; a 2.1 Intercooled Kenne Bell Supercharger just for starters,
Dyno-tuned with 8psi boost making 440rwhp...

I'm going to run it with 'Slicks & Skinnies' next season...hopefully this old
guy can make it into the mid 11's

Thanks for asking

darkmach1

What kind of DAs do you guys have up there? Is it at high altitude?

Larry Warcup

...we're at Sea Level here in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

On this day (of the video) it was about 70 degrees

Very Nice!

Think you could up the boost a little and make some more power outta that mach??

darkmach1

I wouldn't recommend it, I'd say just focus on getting that power to the ground, he's got another 6-7mph left in her.

Larry Warcup

Thanks darkmach1, you're right. I was told that, on this 'stock block,' that if I boost anymore
(it's actually able to do 9psi), there is a possibility of detonation! Crap, I even hate writing that word.

Anyway, yup, next year 'Slicks & Skinnies'....get a better launch (I'm 'bogging' it out right now)
and I should get into the mid 11's with some more top-end speed. Get my 60' to 1.6 - 1.7's
I'm still running stock clutch, driveshaft and 28-spline axles.

The company that sponsors me on big weekends, Brown Bros Ford Performance,
like the car I guess; of course, I'm a good customer, a nice guy and the car's pretty



They want to replace the clutch (Centerforce or Cobra) & axles (31's) over the Winter months.
(I'll just have to pay for 'fluids'...nice!)

Our drag-racing season is over here in the Pacific Northwest,
but I'll be sure to let ya know how the Winter-mods go!

Thanks for your comments, for sure!

^ Good plan. If I were you I would also order some Torco and mix it with your pump gas to prevent detonation at the track.

Larry Warcup

Yup, sorry...we've been using VP Racing Fuel (VP-110) in the car during the season.

Thanks for your advice...I'm new, but I'm learning.
