Took awhile to get the car dialed in, the transmisson is showing signs of failing on the 3-4 shift......with half a second to 3/4 of second slipping. Only happens at WOT. PH is working on it, to determine if a new tranny is needed or if its a bug in the way the transmission gets commands from the tune. Should know more in the week to come.

Put the 75 shot on the car, cut a 1.5 60ft and despite the 3-4 shift hang, I was able to make up for it with an aggressive launch. Battery is dying on the laptop (still at FFW Norwalk) so more details to come. Here is the slip...



I'm stoked. We think the car has 10.6's in it once we work out the transmission issues. Special thanks to PH and crew for all the work they did on the car. Buckman and Navbtcret for convincing me not to fear the bottle and Ranebowcyxx and Firestang70 for providing tips on mastering the launch.

More to come for sure.

 

saw those times on the broadcast today! Great Job, be proud, and keep digging. Thanks for sharing the times!!!

 

Congratulations!! Fantastic run!!

 

Simply amazing. Great friggin 60's too. That car is just a beast and you remain the KING.

 

Too bad Buckman couldn't join you in breaking into the 10s. Once again, you set the example for us all Todd.

 

Lances car will be faster than mine when he is done, of that I am sure. Thanks again.

 

Excellent work Todd, I can't think of anyone more worthy to hit that milestone.
Your car was running great out there, and I was glad to personally witness you breaking the 10's. Good driver mod too!

 

Thanks for showing me the setup that got me there man.

 

A Frickin 1.5 60, unbelieveable. That blows me away almost as much as the 10 sec run

 

Yep, I think that is something that is overlooked in all this. The sexy number is the 10.9x final number, but the one that propelled him there was that 1.5x 60'. That is simply incredible, excellent 60' times, launching like that would be akin to being shot out of a cannon!

 

Looks like it's time for a new title!

Sweet run

 

LOL, thanks man.

 

No words..

 

Thanks for the support all. It means a lot to get props from all the various stang owners accross multiple platforms.

 

Todd awesome job. That thing is a beast.

 

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

 

To put it in perspective...Car and Driver recently ran a Lambo Murcielago LP640 roadster at 11.8 in the 1/4 mi. Enough said.

 

This makes you the second fastest S197 'Stang on the forum. Incredible stuff.

 

Thanks AMM. Though there are some pending updates to that list, so I'm not sure where Lance and I will land on it.
