San Antonio Raceway - shut down
Houston Raceway Park - shut down

Next closest tracks are already closed for the year. Sad state of affairs for drag racing in Texas.
True story.
Drag racing and tracks in trouble.
While Dragy is accurate and reliable just something about having the slip.
Any pics of your Bronco?

0-30 eh?
Strange metric but I’m assuming a street roll start is significantly better. How do you like it at this level on the street?
Overall I’m very impressed with these 3.0 TT Ecoboost applications. They respond well to mods as seen here.

It drives better than a stock one around town. The 5 Star Tune cleans up the 10R quirks quite a bit.

That's the state most motorsports facilities are now facing.

Congratulations on the record! That’s moving for a brick! Do you know if 5 star has tuned any MKZ’s with the 3.0 twin turbo?
What are your plans to get more air into the motor?

Don't know about the MKZ, but you should give them a call.

It's currently out of octane. Once we fix that we'll find the limits of the turbos, then upgrade them.

The Braptor is a 2.7 correct? I know a lot of the fusion sport guys swap the MKZ turbos because they are from the 3.0 which I assume should have larger turbos.

BRaptor has the 3.0 HO Ecoboost.
I know it’s in the Ranger Raptor, Explorer ST and Platinum, Aviator but maybe a few others.

Awesome times! Gets moving off the line that for sure.

No intentions on trying Adam's tune from ZFG? IMO, his tunes are night and day over 5* and practically any tuner on the Explorer ST's. Hold's the record for the fastest ST with his tune and also with the F-150 EB

Nah, I'm very happy with the tunes and service I get from 5 Star. Hard to beat tune adjustments between runs at your local track.
