1/4 Mile Chat Thread

[Robert Palmer]

Talk shit about your times here.



So with the 14.626 I was stoked but now with the Diablo coming around, I am coming for Mario's 14.323! :D


Its an arms race between Blackpepper and Elvis. :D :D :D :D :D

[blackpepper]

Sorry man, earlier I had no service.. ****ing verison! LOL

I'll take whatever I can get to go faster.. my goal is to be in TBSS territory by the end of November.

[Scottina06]

either one of you get some performance tires and your probably there....SRT reps?

[Robert Palmer]

Frankie, lend me your SRT rims. LOL

I'm faster than a stock TBSS..:o:D:eek:

[blackpepper]

I'm faster than a stock TBSS..:o:D:eek:

You're the middle man btwn the srt and tbss.. you're running a 13.4, right?

[blackpepper]

Where can I find a calculator that corrects the ET?

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

Daniel, you're faster than a modded TBSS! :eek:

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

my goal is to be in TBSS territory by the end of November.

That shouldn't be hard LOL

[Bslagle05]

and the TBSS shit talking begins... gotta love it! :)

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

I will put my Jeep up against any TBSS. ;) I don't back down. Just bring it.

[LTrainGC]

Hmmm.... I've got an intake and exhaust, and now a tune. I wonder what I'd be running in the 1/4.

hurry Frank....go to the track and break before these two peckers......LOL

[Robert Palmer]

^****er! LOL

[Matt]

Do you guys think there is a significant advantage for a 2wd 5.7L WK compared to a 4wd 5.7L WK...?

[Robert Palmer]

^Less weight.

[Knightrider03m]

and the TBSS shit talking begins... gotta love it! :)

I'm sorry but ever since that little "problem" that I had on the highway with one, I lost all respect for it lol.

[Knightrider03m]

Do you guys think there is a significant advantage for a 2wd 5.7L WK compared to a 4wd 5.7L WK...?

The 2WD maybe faster. AWD systems only help when your car is super powerful. With the way that the computer limit cars for 1st gear, your engine isn't powerful at start up lol

[DirtyBlackJeepSRT]

Like the SRT8? Yeah. It's super powerful. :p

[LTrainGC]

hurry Frank....go to the track and break before these two peckers......LOL

Hahaha, I don't even know where the nearest track is to me.. I just moved here like 2 weeks ago.

It feels strong as hell though.

[Frankie]

frankie, lend me your srt rims. Lol

haha!

[Frankie]

^Less weight.

But also less traction!

[blackpepper]

4x4 is better in the first 60 feet.

[QBNKID]

Talk shit about your times here.

Its an arms race between Blackpepper and Elvis. :D :D :D :D :DI'll just sit back relax and wait till it happens... :cool:
Do it... Do It...! :D

Sorry man, earlier I had no service.. ****ing verison! LOL

I'll take whatever I can get to go faster.. my goal is to be in TBSS territory by the end of November.I always wanted to race a stock TBSS at the track when I had the 5.7L.
I'm sure that now with the Predator and UD Pulley you'll be on their territory and they might not like it :). Imagine... they would feel terrible to loose to a 5.7L and they can just picture the results vs a 6.1L :eek:

Do you guys think there is a significant advantage for a 2wd 5.7L WK compared to a 4wd 5.7L WK...?There's only one way to find out... bring it to a track and find someone with same mods and 4WD :). Line them up and let's see...

The 2WD maybe faster. AWD systems only help when your car is super powerful. With the way that the computer limit cars for 1st gear, your engine isn't powerful at start up lolLOL What??? We are talking about V8 HEMIs over here.... I think the 60ft are just fine for what they are.

But also less traction!All I have to say is AWD :ftmfw:

[Knightrider03m]

^^^^
I was talking about the 5.7L, not the 6.1L.

[Robert Palmer]

If I can get my hands on a UD and then you combine that with a COLD day at ATCO. Can you say 13.9? :D

[Knightrider03m]

^^^
whats a UD?

[LTrainGC]

^^^
whats a UD?

Underdrive pulley.

[QBNKID]

^^^^
I was talking about the 5.7L, not the 6.1L.Marcus, me too... I was talking about the 5.7L, that's why I said 4WD and not AWD ;).
I think they are pretty quick off the line, they cut good 60ft marks considering their weight, 4WD and hp/tq.

If I can get my hands on a UD and then you combine that with a COLD day at ATCO. Can you say 13.9? :DAs a matter of fact, yes, just ask Ryan... that's exactly what I told him today.

^^^
whats a UD?Under Drive, for Under Drive Pulley.

[Knightrider03m]

Marcus, me too... I was talking about the 5.7L, that's why I said 4WD and not AWD ;).

----------------

Under Drive, for Under Drive Pulley.

I wasn't saying that it wasn't quick. I think that it could be quicker since the computer doesn't give you full power at 1st.


Thanks for fixing my dumb moment guys :thumbsup:

[QBNKID]

I wasn't saying that it wasn't quick. I think that it could be quicker since the computer doesn't give you full power at 1st.


Thanks for fixing my dumb moment guys :thumbsup:Sorry Marcus, I don't understand. Where did you read that the computer doesn't give you full power at 1st? Personally I think that for the hp/tq and weight of the vehicle the numbers that pulls are about right.

Yes all stock tunes are kind of holding you back a little but that's why there's tuners out there to get a little better results. But we are talking stock 5.7L numbers right?

[blackpepper]

I would like to point out that Mario mentioned to me me that the UD hasn't strained anything electrical in his street and racing tech thingy :D I had read concerns that a UD pulley could dim the lights, make the a/c less effective and also heard that raising the idle rpms might be a good idea but Mario reports no issues.

I am powering a 600w amp so I'll probably raise the idle rpm up 100rpm if I notice anything.. remember my goal is early November.. power over rims for the win! (it's like a right brain/left brain struggle :D)

Ryan so what's the ET goal for November?

And right about now is when I start feeling like a dumbass.. :eek:lol I read it thanks for the info!

[Robert Palmer]

Bump.


New time to beat is 14.255. :D

[Scottina06]

what is the record for the wk 4.7 V8? Do you need pics of a slip or is a pic of superchips good enough?

[Robert Palmer]

IDK the record for a 4.7.


I would say slips are needed as the SC, DH and those types of devices are never accurate.

Isn't that right Frankie? :D

[Dylans3960ccs]

I bet this bad boy could do the quarter mile in 16 flat!

http://i588.photobucket.com/albums/ss324/Dylans3960/Jeep001.jpg

hehe.

[scjeep4.7HO]

I wanna race. I wanna race.

[Scottina06]

uh they are accurate....I ran a 16.1 completely stock and 13.93 now bitches.......

[Robert Palmer]

OOOOOOOhhhhh!

[QBNKID]

Bump.


New time to beat is 14.255. :DI have a feeling you'll be braking that record yourself soon again ;). 13s is a just a matter of time my friend, just let it get a bit colder, as you know these HEMIs love cold temps. ATCO he we come.... :D.


what is the record for the wk 4.7 V8? Do you need pics of a slip or is a pic of superchips good enough?Well, so far all I've seen is the one set by someone name Chaz that raced at Etown back in 2007 with a Laredo 4.7L and ran 16.1.
So why not...? Let's set that as the number to beat from now (9/23/09)
Take a look...

I'll race any of you guys with a 4.7 WK vs my 4.7L WJ... Let's do it...! Scott, not yours :D.

[Megatron]

[scjeep4.7HO]

Congrats on the record.I think you meat to say... 5.7L Naturally Aspirated (N/A) with regular bolt-ons ie. CAI, exhaust, Tune.

N/A 5.7L you hold the record. ;)

[blackpepper]

I'm well invested in this n/a 5.7 battle... will report back on Wednesday.

[Dylans3960ccs]

does anybody have any 3.7L 1/4 mile times . . . :D

[Megatron]

Just wondering if maybe joe time is better in comparison to tman and frankies because of his wheel and tired combo. From what I could remember or understand they all shared a similar tune?.. Feel free to correct, it was just a random thought I had this morning.

[Robert Palmer]

Tman and I have the same tune.

Wheels;

Elvis: 17in Chrome Stockers

T-Man: 18in Frisbees

Frankie: 20in Real SRT's


And my tire size is 245-65-17. I dont know about everyone else.

[Megatron]

do the H rated tires play a major factor ?

[Robert Palmer]

No.

[Megatron]

Ok.

[QBNKID]

lol, then what's your wj supposed to run :pHey Dylan I found one of the videos of the jeep running mid 15s. There's another video of a 15.5 run somewhere I believe, I just can't find it now.
BTW, isn't this what some 5.7L HEMIs are running stock?

Ohh, take a look at the dial-in and what I ran... ;)

[blackpepper]

Off to the track today.. yay.

[QBNKID]

Off to the track today.. yay.Good luck bro! Go brake that record now.
Don't tell Joe I said that :lol:.

[blackpepper]

Joe! Mario wants me to break your record!


oops... :lol:

[Robert Palmer]

Don't worry his Jeep is not as fast as mine. :D


Oh wait there is a test and tune session at E-Town tonight. Should I? :D

[blackpepper]

It's pretty cold here today...
http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=94920

[Robert Palmer]

As soon as I said that it started to rain. WTF! :mad:

[blackpepper]

Oh damn, I guess you're taking the subway b/c you don't wanna get your Jeep dirty...

[FlyinRyan]

Whenever one of you wants "the edge" in this N/A arms race, you give me a call.....;)

[Robert Palmer]

I am still the King! :joe:

[blackpepper]

*coughfluke!!

[Robert Palmer]

I am still the King! :joe:
.

[blackpepper]

wow :buttkick:

I wonder if 91 v. 93 octane really makes that much of a difference...

[FlyinRyan]

It does.

[blackpepper]

Son of a bitch. I'm moving.

[Scottina06]

add some octane boost

[blackpepper]

That could work.. but every tank?

I'm kinda lazy :lol:

Anyway my CMR is already set up for 91 so I'd have to go back.. maybe I could get a 93 tune just for the track (they have 96 oct) but I'm not that kind of baller :cool:

[FlyinRyan]

You are only leaving a few HP on the table. make up for it in other ways, Ryan.
