Default Hit the strip again..

One word..ughh
Ughh..

Start the day..cruising down the highway to meet some guys..state trooper pulls out, follows me then pulls in behind me at the gas station..I'm open cutout and everything... ... ..tint ticket.. tint..
Retarded.

Anyways me and 97 hit the strip, and let me say this track suckkkss. To make it simple I did a great burnout and 2.1 60' 8.0 / 98.6mph
Thing is my clutch/something went out and it wouldn't let me go into 4th.. Slave cylinder or something went out.

So now I have to get a new clutch/whatever before any new times. Last trip was 7.8 @ 95 and 11.8@123 with less boost and a 20mph head wind. I'm confident it's a 129-131mph car..just have to get traction...and not break stuff. lul

I'll post a few vids when they are sent to me. Clutch was acting up every run though, now I'm driving with no clutch.

So you were having clutch issues and still picked up 3+ mph in the 1/8? I would be pretty happy about that even tho you ran slower times man. Sucks about the ticket tho! Hopefully my track visit tomorrow turns out to be better!

Sucks about the ticket, but congrats on the mph! That is very impressive. Since I know absolutely nothing about the SRT4's, what are your mods?? I have always liked those cars, especially when they run like yours!

Just a turbo swap, head with a stock bottom and all the normal bolt-ons/etc. Nothing too crazy. Boost was 20/29/29, still just fine tuned for 21psi. I'm still just barely working this turbo, haha.

It looks like a much better 60' with that camera angle, lol. Was that a go-pro?

Hate that you guys got stuck with a crap track like that, but I'm sure you fellas still had a good time.

Your trap is up though. I agree with your predictions of what the car is capable of..

Whats the diameter? Maybe they are just too small?
