G35 stomps Mustang after Mustang

[gwoods]

I just finished uploading my racing videos from tonight!!!

The tiny tires are awesome!! but I get wheels spin 1-2, 2-3 and am in 4th for a good part of the back 1/8th.

The weather was crap my best time was a 14.3

beating 350GT 14.48 vs 14.986

I raced this silver GT twice. he red lighted the first time but we still raced.



This is a V6 5spd stang with a ton of mods

This 350z was the coolest thing at the track



It is an 06 with a built motor and transmission, 2 turbos. It ran high 12's on 10 psi and 20" street tires!

The guy said he had ordered slick and could turn up the boost to 35psi. He said the torque convertor was built for 4000rpm stall and giving him problems. He was waiting for the slicks and a 3000 stall convertor to turn up the boost. Should be a 9 second car year round.

I really think this WRX was playing with me. I lost to it twice





this focus called me out



12 second stang



funny car





my first race against a V6 accord I won 14.305 to his 15.472 FU Honda!

[SVTCOBRA]

Thanks Jeff!!!!Those were fun!

Did the guy in the focus fall asleep at the line!?!?!

Have you beat up on any old Cobra's like mine??I wonder how mine would do.....I know my 245's on the rear are way too skinny for second gear.

Jeff:

Nice! That Ford focus must have been dazed.

[TeflonG35]

Friday was my first time at the track without racing. The one time I go there not to race and there is another G. A spiffy new g37 was there and did 14.6. I wanted to race it soooo bad because I know I'd get atleast a 14.4 or quicker. It was much cooler that night then when I raced last. Also I have the fan conversion now.

I was all set in line to race a s2000 that had been running 14.7-14.9's all night. Then the focus got out of his car ran up to the spotter and pointed at me. I LOL, this guy just doesn't know.

I toyed with the V6 Mustang keeping the race close but NO mercy for a FOCUS calling me out. I killed him.

Finding a stock one is the problem.... stock for stock yes. They are sooo easy to modify.

The G37 is a couple tenths slower then my sedan

I am sure I can get a 13 on these tires they are so fast off the line.

I may go to California for work later this year and I will be sure to run at sealevel when I go! I know my car is a mid 13 second car at sealevel in go weather.

The focus race was too funny. Why didn't you race the funny car??

[TeflonG35]

Nice videos. I really need to invest in some rims and tires for the track. Probably after I deal with my headers and cat replacements.

[audtatious]

What were your 60' times?

[G_whizz]

Awesome vids as always Jeff!!

That 1 Mustang made it look like you drove a Focus..

Those WRX's are damn quick.

Nice to see you spanked the Hon-duh tho!

[gwoods]

What were your 60' times?

last night 2.1-2.3 when its cooler 2.0

That 1 Mustang made it look like you drove a Focus..

yeah I knew what the end result of that race would be, we had all been watching that stang beat everyone. it had that nice raspy exhaust sound with a cackle on rev-down that you can only get from a camed 5.0 Ford.

Hey Jeff.

Would these work do you think?http://delaware.craigslist.org/pts/787672734.html

Hey Jeff.

Those would be a good deal for $100. That rash isn't that bad but it LOOKS scary. A good tech inspector at the track may not let you race over it. Usually they just glance at your tires but if that caught their eye you could be out of luck.

You can check fitment on this web site, your G needs 5x114.3 bolt pattern so do MOST 5 bolt mustangs

[TeflonG35]

Lol I'm pretty sure cobra r rims on a G will draw someone's eyes.

I may offer him $100 after I get paid.

I dident know curb damage would get you kicked out of the lanes.

[SVTCOBRA]

Teflon, when my wife curbed one of my NEW Ford Cobra R's, I sanded the damage and painted it. Could not tell unless you got up close.

[TeflonG35]

Thats what I was thinking. As long as It's not cracked or bent.

[infinitgkid]

lolz that focus got destroyed... hahaha my goodness...

FLAWLESS VICTORY!

gwoods wins!

[AddictionG35]

Out of curiosity, what mods have you done to your G? It's not stock is it? Just curious.

[Sentientbydesign]

Jeff is stock IIRC. He doesn't allow himself any mods for good reason.

Hey Jeff,

Let me know when you come out here to Cali. I'd love to run against you. I'll need to swap out my clutch before then, but it would be nice to actually get on a track with a seasoned pro.

Fujita intake kit and 23" tall tires are my only mods.

For sure, once the mod bug bites it is impossible for me to stop....

Yeah I love to race would love to have another G at the track.

I got booted for missing the clamp on the overflow tank hose LOL..... my hemi ram didn't come with a clamp because the overflow box had a flared fitting.

I lost the battery hold down bolt one of the many times I had the motor apart and I was not allowed to race until I found someone with a bungy cord to use as a hold down.

Its all up to the track official who races and who doesn't.... If the track offical thought that there was a risk of loosing that tire and wrecking your car he would not let you race.

Nice kills Jeff.

How you ever had the coolant bypass mod. You live in hot climate. You should try it on your G. It is a cheapest mod I believe. Somebody can correct me if I am wrong.

zozo

[gwoods]

whats that? basically a thermostate bypass??

[zozoka1212]

you bypass the throttle body coolant. That helps to lower the intake air temperature. Not to familiar with it since I always lived in cold climate. You are ok as long as not reaching to cold weather.

Here is a little more not G but mazda6.

I don't think all cars use this type of system for the throttle body. I know on the hemi ram it had electric heat for the throttle body.

My buddy with the 426 cubic inch 11 second charger put a second throttle body on his intake manifold at the rear. He used the heater wire for power to open and close it.

Good looking out but not applicable to my car

I know on my Kinetix plenum that I it removed a coolant entrance around the throttle body. It just gave me something to connect 2 coolant lines together. I'm not sure for certain if it was to the throttle body. I did the install a long time ago. And My old stock plenum is in my moms basement in maryland. So maybe he does have something.

[zozoka1212]

I think it should work. vq has coolant going into. Maybe that's all the gain from. Not even from the Kinetix. Who knows. I would try it if I live in warmer place where I don't freeze things.

It would be the cheapest mod for sure.

Oh well.
