FFW Norwalk Debrief (info on stock 4.0L autos and video)

[rygenstormlocke]

Well, FFW Norwalk has come and gone. There were some interesting cars for the 4.0L crowd.

There was red Vortech mustang that was a customer car, parked with the PHP car that was running consistent mid 13’s, 13.5 I think. I don’t know anything about the boost it was running.

The PHP car was running 11.44 I believe, something around there. Absolutely amazing, though keep in mind this was a 100% track car, but doable, though no AC, seats, etc. When I looked under the hood, it appeared the Zex was still installed and heard they were spraying on top of the SC. Wow!!!!! Gutsy!

There were a few stock V6’s there, auto’s running consistent 16’s. The two I ran against/slaughtered ran 16.1 and 16.2. But keep in mind this was most likely from an idle launch.

And of course Scrming had some awesome runs, was a finalist in the Ultra Stang class (won some money LOL) and ran low 13.4’s (which is awesome considering the weight/pulley he is running). I didn’t manage to best my 13.08 run in Richmond, my best was a 13.1.

Oh…here is the video I promised.......

So, here you go...enjoy!!!!!

Something gives me the feeling you spoke to Scott this week about your built motor.

Something gives me the feeling you spoke to Scott this week about your built motor.

not really... if i remember the conversation went something like this...

Me: Car appears to be a 13.4 car. Not going to hit the 12's as she sits...
Paul: Well, we can stick a new pulley on her...
Me: No! We'll keep it as is and just have fun with her, until we have the motor built for next year...
Scott: Yep....

LOL
