  1. If it happens when it is hot, look into vapor-lock.
  2. I thought you were redoing the new house?
  3. Video of the Mclaren 9.97 test run is listed below
  4. With Evoms high flow Turbos it sounds even stronger.
  5. I'm running the AWE 200 cell cat pipes and the mclaren sport exhaust.
  6. Now that we ran the car and validated the performance 703 hp at the wheels and 827 hp at the crank to the real world drag strip times of high 9s. and 143mph we found it was smooth and very calm on the street so it goes back on the Dyno to add more boost and power and finalize the tune. We expect it to run much quicker then our first test passes and mid 9s are in the cards. I will post Dyno sheets and final HP and TQ numbers when completed. Evoms is one class act and knows how to make power
  7. I am in talks with GMG now about a full cage Did they have any real concerns about the carbon tub when they did your Roll bar. Were you really happy with the job.
  8. Right now I just back into the water box and floor it and it shoots up to the line. I need to have the front brakes lock and the rear tires to spin in place. I ran this weekend with tire temps between 70-85 degs that is terrible and with the in dash tire temp reading you can see where you are to control the tire Temps. and hold the burnout until you get what you want.
  9. I think he is talking about the exhaust rap not the tire rap. The problem with the tire rap after you get in the staging lanes you can sit there for 30 to 45 minutes. and then you lose the heat again.
  10. The bracket racing I really don't like but that is what is mostly out there but I still had to do it for 50 years. My preference is heads up last season I raced in all 4 NMCA west true street heads up events at California Dragway and won all 4 in the 10 second category and was runner-up in the overall event in one of them with cars in the 8 seconds and up area. Needing to back off at the end to not go to fast goes against every fiber of my being. I am sure I am the only serious racer in a McLaren at whatever track I go to. It drives to and from the track with the Air Cond on and still beats most of the dedicated drag cars there. I think with my new setup it will be a great bracket car on Sat night it ran 10.04 10.02 10.00 9.97 each one as the DA dropped a 100 ft between rounds I guess a line lock is in my future.
  11. Do you see any reason you can't use a line lock on that car all others have ABS and use one? That would be the best solution.
  12. I ran Nitto Nt05r 345/30/19 with 15 lbs air @ 3200-3300 launch the track condition was poor.
  13. Nice idea but I just drive to and from the track now, no more. Motor home trailer crew tools power just me and the car I did it the other way for decades. I guess there is always a way to hook up a line lock on that car. Right now it is waiting for a rollcage, window net, a master shutoff and a renew of my competition license.
  14. Yes everyone uses an all wheel drive Dyno with the rollers linked, that is the only way it can be done unless you have the factory equipment. The ECU wont let it run without the front tires turning.
  15. I had heat cover made for the entire exhaust. Pictures are on there Facebook page
  16. Yes your 10.55 was faster then most others running 10.70-10-80 your driving skill and a track at near sea level really helps. My setup at your tack would be a dream run of 9.70s 3000 ft vs 300 ft DA should be worth about .27 and there is about another .1 in my 60 ft if I can get heat into them running the tires at 70 -80 Degs is terrible No way yet to get heat in them at night with no line lock waiting 1 -1 1/2 hours between runs.
  17. A stock MP4 runs about 10.8 @132 This car can run 10.70s at 134 that is a lot more then .4 and 5 mph. The cars that you see running 10.40s are not factory stock and run in great weather. But it is not for everyone to modify there car, the Mclaren MP4 is a turbo car from the factory twin turbo is standard. Thank you for the Congrats
  18. I have been working with EVOMS in Tempe AZ to tune my MP4-12c to be a 9 second 1/4 mile car. They developed an EVOMS ECU Tune to go with what they call there big turbo kit which they will have in different stages. Also available is increased launch rpm if you like to spin your tires, there is a big difference in launch with that much additional power even at the stock launch rpm. My first time out without even giving the ECU time to learn was at White Horse pass Dragway in AZ formally Firebird raceway. Known for hot weather and a slippery track. The car dynoed at over 700AWHP and over 800 HP at the Crank and Crank torque around 670 ft lbs. Here are the real world track results to back it up. All 4 runs were between 2900 and 3100 Density Altitude. In other test runs it ran as high as 143 MPH in the 1/4 mile. Time slips attached. 9.97@141 10.00@141 [email protected] 10.06@142 http://www.lambopower.com/forum/style_imag...e_types/gif.gif http://www.lambopower.com/forum/style_imag...e_types/gif.gif http://www.lambopower.com/forum/style_imag...e_types/gif.gif http://www.lambopower.com/forum/style_imag...e_types/gif.gif http://www.lambopower.com/forum/style_imag...e_types/gif.gif
  19. My point exactly if you are 6 MPH slower you are not making power. Take out the 60FT difference which changes with each pass for many reasons and the Huracan is not even close to equal performance.
  20. If you study the time slip the Huracan ran about 6 mph slower then the other lane. It had a fantastic 60ft of 1.605 to a 1.866 if you equalize the traction difference the other car would have run 10.469 et MPH tells the story equalize the traction and you see who is making the power
  21. I have a 2015 wraith on order it is going online Nov 11 Diamond Black Seashell Int. I am planning to put a brushed steel wrap on just the hood, it should change the look of the all black car. I was not a fan of the two tone I thought it made the car look even bigger then it was. Any opinions welcome.
  22. This is not the same car or even the same year. I know this car. It was photographed on my driveway.
  23. With the new Dodge SRT now at 707 hp supercharged and the Viper at 640hp a major change will need to take place. A supercharged V10 Viper at around 725-750 HP will need to happen.
  24. Me to and the place I left 37 years ago, now when I complain about SoCal I just think back from where I came.
