Ocala, Fl Wannagofast 1/2 mile event, Oct 19th and 20th.

FL 4Motion · 10-07-2019, 12:23 AM

My guess is 163 mph in the standing 1/2 mile. Launching will be tricky.

(This is for Spooler btw).

To all the haters and negative Nancy's out there. The car is going to run what it runs. I am not too worried about it. Solidus and I are going to have fun. That's the objective,
"To Have Fun". I don't need to do this or that, I am running what I have. I am not worried to much about it. If I get traction and do a good job of driving, it is all over. So, that being said, "Al, get your car going dude".

My guesses:

2.8 sec 60 ft
11.9 sec 1/4 mi
Top speed 142 mph

I'm being neither. Just giving an honest guess from what I've seen people run in the half mile on runways.

SOHO has the overall VQ 1/2mi record at 172.5mph, but I believe you're correct w/ Dynosty holding the VHR record specifically. I think SOHO's fastest 370Z pass was about 156mph.

That record is going to fall. If one of us don't do it Seb will be out at Shiftsector with his car 2 weeks after us.

Would the record be official if you removed your side mirrors and taped up body gaps?

The reason I asked is when my buddy ran his Supra at Shiftsector he picked up 6 mph by doing that.

In my humble opinion, if it’s a street car, it will be much more meaningful to run it in street trim, so there won’t be any asterisk attached to the result.

It’s like that Tesla Model S lap time around the Nurburgring, besting the Taycan by some 20 seconds, but with a gutted interior, prototype drive mode, Cup 2’s and flare fender. That lap time just doesn’t mean nearly as much.

But, I am not judging though. Best of luck to everyone, and stay safe!

I was going to tape the nose of my car up because I didn't want anything flying off. LOL

Not sticking any other kind to it because I am not fighting to get the glue off.
I will run with nothing before 100mph tape, Duck tape.

They use it nascar for a reason. You risking tearing apart your front facia over glue. Just use painters tape to go over your gap then run duct tape over it.
