My Tc cortina powered by a 350 chev, 2speed glide, 9" on 150shot of gas
ran a 9.51 @ 142 mile car weight is 1310kg's at that time the motor was only making 490hp rw. cold night at the wisd.

Let me know when you're ready for a shot at the title

Our times should be very close with our cars and engines being nearly the same, but you should be quicker given I'm running a stock ECU and you've got the unichip and a slightly bigger cam

1. 1999 AU Ghia. 2.5" cat back and a xr8 cold air intake.
2. 1580kg
3. not sure
4. i had a reaction time of two seconds on the first one. heheh. whoops
5. Wisd 5/4/06 was coolish
6. street potenza's
7. 15.416 ET quick for what it is i think. very stock. top speed was 144.23 k/mh

That's a very good 60 foot time there considering the time elapsed, being a ghia I assume it's an auto? How are you launching it?

hey adam... remember me, the white fairmont... they are good times for what ur car is.... good to see u join up here... on the fordmods...

still goota figure out the misfire prob... not sure about the fastest i6 na title.. more fastsest 60 footer on street tyres.. lol... a more achievable goal for me atm...

Well that's useful at the traffic lights when your lane merges just after the intersection...

so after this weekend at heathcote i suspect more listings on ET & miles per hour next week

2.3 for the 60's about right for an AUI Ghia remeber the IRS is grippier in the launch. The ET and TS line up pretty well with what I am running so they look fine to me. Not too sure about the weight though seems too light. I would bet it would weigh closer to the 1650kg mine does on WSID weighbridge lane 1 scrutineering bay

1. el2 xr8, 4.11 diff, difilip extractors, 2.5" zorst
2. duno, probs bout 1750 all up
3. 150 rwkw
4. 6/10 better than halfway.. but really not all tha flash.
5. kwinana, coolish nite.
6. 255 wide at street pressure, 4.11 diff ratio. t56 box too.
7. 15.028 at 148kmh
8. 2.1 60'

clutch pedal was shagged so i couldnt change gears fast.. im expecting a tenth or two better next time im down there..

thats not a bad time at all, next time dump most of the fuel, you'd be surprised what the difference it can make.

EA falcon 5 speed
about 1500kg??
dunno?
heathcote dragway
stockies at 22psi
14.89 at 96mph

1.EF fairmont , 4L I6, AUTO , N/A , (ITS stage 4 , billit cam , jmm tuner)
2. the usual weight
3. 156rwkw
4. 3/10 (first time on the strip , still trying to get a good launch technique)
5. Heathcote, 11.9 degrees
6. cant remember tyre size, tyre pressure was 29 PSI , 3.23 diff
7. 14.81 @ 95.97
