Day at Darlington [Pics/Vids]

[BIRDMAN]

I know, not a big deal, especially with a slow vehicle but a photographer friend (Mixtography) was there along with a few other guys I know so figured I'd share some pics and vids with y'all.

I started off shitty and then after I lowered the psi some in the tires I started to get some much better times. My mods are quite light: 2.8 upper, 4lb lower, intake/exhaust, valvebody, Randy Tune, Hankook All Seasons. lol

Here was my best of the day:

A vid or two to follow, though both of my best runs I forgot to turn on the damn gopro, so fial.

[Mike]

Nice E.T. for your mods.

Oh, I forgot to mention an important one: RANDY TUNE! :mrgreen:

[jmd]

[TLyons90]

:bigthumb: Lookin good and runnin right!

[bambooi]

what did the cts, bmw m?, and stang run that day? Nice times for mods for sure.

Part of me didn't want to show this slip cause of our forever-pending race but oh well...who knows if I'll have it too much longer anyways lol.

[BIRDMAN]

CTS-V had a best of 12.05 @ 116.

M5 had a best of 11.72 @ 124.

Both of those cars weigh a ton and are stock.

Which 'stang? And not sure regardless...don't think I know him.

[BIRDMAN]

Some videos... I wasn't working on reaction times and was simply just trying to get some clean launches. I of course forgot to record my better runs.

Playing with that LS3 C7 (intake/exhaust/tune):

Wow, did not think that heavy M 5 would run that kind of #. Not bad.

[bambooi]

Dang I didn't think the M would go that fast either.

[chrisheltra]

11.72@124 sounds weird. I ran a 10.81@124 in the truck.

Did he have traction issues?

[RoadconeTuning]

those new M5/M6 cars are rated at like 550hp... they usually dyno at over 550 to the tire.

[CarsAndGames]

Since you live down the street from me. If you're going to the track again let me know. I've never been to the track here.

Sure thing! I had posted in the "Who's going to Darlington this weekend" thread here but I'll send you a PM if you like lol.

[CarsAndGames]

LOL....whoops.

[BIRDMAN]

If I don't "accidentally" trade the truck for something else then I'll probably be heading back in two weeks. lol

[TLyons90]

:hysterical: You would have me! I would def kill you on the launch but you would run me down no doubt!

[BIRDMAN]

It would have been more fun to find out in person! Lol

[RoadconeTuning]

I'm surprised you dont get a miata or something to be able to race with.

[BIRDMAN]

I'm surprised you dont get a miata or something to be able to race with.

How am I supposed to over compensate with a miata??

I should just get a G8 GXP and drive around revving my exhaust at people while avoiding my friends who do race...yeah, that's the ticket! :finger:
