Official: Fastest Festiva's "PROOF" thread

[eurotiva]

I know, what are the chances?

[drddan]

Really! The stars must have all been aligned just right!

[eurotiva]

Yea, 15.8 @ 84 mph.

Tonite it went 12.11 @112

Heres my proof. Mike and RJ were there, and I want to thank them for all their help. I couldn't have done it without you guys.

Made multiple 12 second passes, but the last two counted the most. Car still has AC, full interior, DVD, etc, blah, blah,blah,streetcar...rj and I drove it 75 miles to the track, made 8 passes, and drove it home. It was a good day. I got a vid or two, I'll upload soon.but was dark, so vids aren't the greatest

I'm glad the Trans survived.
I plan on gutting it, and see if it will go faster.

It weighed .........2120 lbs. Without me, but with two tires and tools, so it's about the same.

And here's a video

Wow, 1.7 sec 60' time?!?

Very impressive Greg!! I'll try to get the list updated later today guys

[neanderpaul]

KILLIN!! YES GREG!!!

[neanderpaul]

What transmission?!

[M3NTAL]

Nice run Greg. almost had 11s I'm sure next time you'll get it though.
Was that launch on 2 step ?

[eurotiva]

Thanks guys. No launch control. Just holding it wide open and leaving at 7k and 10 lbs of boost.

Xr2 Trans with ? Miles
Still have everything in car,.so 11 isn't too far away

[navdoc101]

Beautiful !! What track did ya'll go to?

[eurotiva]

Orlando, which they re paved and it hooks.

If I haven't been goofing off, it would have gone 11s. I wasted two passes earlier in the day.

One I tried to launch in second...epic fail

The other I had a quarter tank of gas an when I launched it died of fuel starvation. Added fuel before the last two passes, and it was good to go

[bhazard]

I can't believe it held up to that kinda launch. I was scared launching at 5k with no boost, but I was slipping it out too.

Cue music..... "like a rock"

Built Ford tough bRad, where's the faith bro?

I didn't know if it was gonna hold, or how many times it's going to hold, but it's running good. Solid mounts and fourth Trans mount really helped. It made some crazy noises that I've never heard before

"It made some crazy noises I've never heard before"
:lol:

[M3NTAL]

What did Mike and RJs car run?

[Aaronbrook37]

That is a ridiculous 60 foot time! I'm shocked - very nicely done, my friend!
