Justin Tolbert was finally able to send me his video of his record setting performance from last November. At the 2:30 mark of the video is his Eaton, blower only 6 speed/IRS record of 10.48 @ 132.93 w/ a 1.58 60' pass. The next run on the vid is Justin's 10.09 @ 134.52 w/ a 1.43 60' on nitrous, while missing 4th gear. Both of these are all-time Eaton/IRS/6 speed records. Justin's 132.93 on blower is the fastest Eaton MPH in history.
Thanks for posting the video for me IronTerp. Yes the car is currently impounded for street racing. I have little hope of getting it back. A lesson to learn for all of those who think they won't get caught like I used too!!!

Man!! That really sucks!
I'd do some community service work and try everything possible to sway the judge. Man, that's horrible. Congrats on the times though

Justin,
Hopefully you'll get your car back. Even though you race at sea level tracks, your car is making some serious power or is light as a feather to run those times and mph. I am curious as to your weight and set up. If you could PM me the details I would be curious to compare notes.

Awesome vid, it's obvious you have quite a set of driving skills. But really no hope of getting it back? I certainly don't mean to bring up what must be a rather sore subject but you seem certain that it's gone for good. I hope this is not the case, best of luck to you.

"Even though"??? Ahh, come on Chris.....You're not going to penalize Justin because he lives at sea level are you????
His setup is stock motor/heads, Stage V+ Eaton with ported Dragon TB/Plenum, long tubes, very well setup up suspension with Level 5 half shafts. Not a ton of weight reduction....maybe 3,600 lb race weight?

with that heavy IRS too i wonder what kind of power he made with that setup...stageV, ported Dragon TB/Plenum, long tubes. and lot of weight reduction is my next combo

He's tuned by Pro Dyno and I believe he hit mid 560's in RWHP.
The car made 568rwhp and 591rwtq on stage V+ port with 4lb. lower and 2.90 upper. Made 660rwhp and 739rwtq on the 125 shot. In the video the car weighed around 3640lbs. with me in the car. The car has a lot of other bolt-ons too though. Ported and welded Dragon throttle body and plenum, blower spacer, electric water pump, ported lower intake, all the cooling mods(which really help any eaton make power), etc. Also the car is tuned on 104 octane(unleaded) so the tune is agressive.
Your car and driving is amazing!!! I must say that is the sickest sounding Cobra I have ever heard, and I've heard a lot of them. The power, the sound, everything makes me drool.
Anyhow, I'm just curious to know what exhaust setup you are running. I love that sound, and hope to have my Cobra sound similar to that.
Good luck getting the car back. There is always a chance to do so. I hope it all works out for you.
Congrats on the times, that is bada$$

Nice to see the video's finally. I had a few buddies with Lightnings that went to that event and they were calling me all day about this badass silver Cobra that was running sick times. After seeing how that car ran at the Shootout and seeing some of the other videos I'm about sold on the Dragon TB/Plenum setup! This car is absolutely insane fast for such a simple combo! I'm sorry you guys haven't involved in that bust haven't had some resolution to that yet, have they given you any kind of time frame as to when everything can be settled and what you can do to possibly get the car back?

That wouldn't be one of NAZs ported lowers would it. I figured a full bolt on car with ported lower intake and the complete new stieg V dragon setup would do mid 500s.

He is also running 104octane, so that gives him alot of breathing room with regards to total timing.
IronTerp posted a graph in another thread, and he was at 539rwhp with 25* timing. I believe his setup is almost as the same (Different port stage and plenum)
No time frame as of yet to when this will all be over. I don't even know when my next court date is. I just wanted to say thanks for all of the kind comments. Just don't be like me and think it won't ever happen to you.
