2005 Lincoln LS w/ 100 shot nitrous new best ET's 11/18/06

Finally took the LS to the track today when it was fairly cold out. I got alot better times than I did last time I went out to test my car with nitrous. Here is how my timeslip looked:


R/T... .748
60'... 2.205
330... 5.797
1/8... 8.751
MPH... 84.75
1000... 11.263
1/4... 13.382
MPH.. 106.59

I am still spinning off the line. I figure that once I get traction (LSD & DR's) along with curing my tranny hesitation problem I will be easily able to dip into the 12's. I figure with all of that cured I should have no problem scooting through 12.9's and moving right onto 12.8's with ideal conditions.

I also got a new best N/A time. I topped my previous N/A best of a 14.34 with a new best of 14.29... Not much better, but it does get me into the 14.2's bracket now.

Though I wasn't lucky enough to get my 13.3 run on video I had my friend take a few vids of me racing some fairly respectable cars. Take a look.

05 Lincoln LS -vs- LS1 GTO

05 Lincoln LS -vs- 97 Cobra

I should have beat them both by a decent amount. Instead the Cobra barely edged me out but I did still put a hurting on the LS1 GTO driver. Ya win some ya lose some. Good times.

it was nice meeting you. Great running car, it suprised me when I saw you starting to yank back on me in the cobra! Great sleeper man.

Thanks. Yeah you YANKED my ass out of the hole! Good launches and good driving.

Once I fix my traction and you get past the bogging launches; with a little luck we should both be able to scoot into the 12's early next season. :beer:

Oh wait a minute, I almost forgot that your probably going to just skip 12's, 11's, maybe 10's, and go straight to 9's.... :thumbsup:
