Dear Joseph,

Thanks for your interest. 

 

5481 was run for this event without any aero mods for all venues. The car was aligned to factory specs except for the caster which is 6 + degrees courtesy of Johnny Woods

. 

Transaxle has the standard ZF gearing. 

 

The engine was built by Dave McLain in Cuba, MO.. There is a detailed article regarding the build by Dan Jones at the following link. Basically 623 HP and  

521 TQ.

The headers that I used have 2" primaries (probably should be 1.875" s) with 3" collector and 3" exhaust pipe. No muffler. 

 

Tires are Sumitomo  HTRZ111. Size 245/40/17  and 285/35/18  These are not the best tires for a one mile shootout, as they have a very high wear rating. I need them because I need a Y rated tire for SSCC next month. I prefer Toyo R888. 

 

In the One Mile Shootout I spun the tries through 1st gear in the first run. 2nd run I hit the rev limiter in 2nd  and 3rd gear (7000RPM),. 3rd run, I hit the rev limiter in 1st gear. 

 

On all three runs the front hood popped open at approx. 165mph.

Mark

Tires, aero mods, engine, rpm limit, gearing?

Man that is consistant.
I can't run 3 - 1/4 miles within 1.2 mph
