I have a metco pulley but I haven't put it on yet. Do I have to worry about it coming off? Will they exchange the old design for the new one?
dgussin1 said:the goat was quick, but it was heavily modded and he still couldn't keep up unless he was on the 150 shot. He was with a few others that were running 14's.
dgussin1 said:The way I have my suspension set up makes it harder to launch than stock. I feel if I had the stock suspension, I would have some 1.5's...which I still don't think is out of the question with my setup.
it is definitely a weight transfer issue, it doesn't do it. The stiffer springs also are shocking the tires harder, some guys can dump the clutch where I have to ease out of the hole.JETSOLVER said:Do you think its a weight transfer issue? or is it a function of the stiffer coil overs making the launch shock to the tires harder(thus adding to the loss of traction)? And did you have to change the pinion angle to deal with the one piece drive shaft?
Hope I haven't missed anything and thanks again.
his best pass was a 11.7, his average was high 11.8. i was averaging low 11.6's.Formula51 said:Not that it really matters, but you said the GTO was running 11.7 off the bottle which is certainly keeping up with your 11.6 and 11.8 runs. You also said it ran 10.9 on the bottle, which is waxing your a$$. Now go get that pulley and belt fixed and see if you can't return the favor!
Best of luck hitting 10's with the pulley!
Do you have any performance mods other than tune, drive shaft, and tires?
I know you have the coilovers and was wondering how you are adjusting them at the track, or if you are at all? If anything I would expect them to hurt your launch, so a 1.6 60' is very impressive.
total BS. The stock pulley has been taken off and put on 3 times now.1BADGT500 said:Hey Dave, any issues in putting the stock pulley back on or is that just BS about the stock pulley breaking once you take it off the car?
I didn't have the gears or the cai when i ran my 12.7 or my 11.89, i also did those runs on the stock tires and 275/40/17 mt dr's.bunk22 said:I noticed in the video it said you had 3.73 gears. Did you have those when you ran prior, such as your 12.7@120 on street tires? Big difference between stock?

also had a 11.606 @ 118.73, 11.62 @ 118.18 and other 11.7-11.8's.
once i figured out how to launch the car I ran low 11.6's. my last 3 passes were 11.59, 11.60 and 11.62. My first pass of the day was 12.3 with a 2.2 60' and missing second.Formula51 said:From your original post:
Sounds like you ran some 11.7's and 11.8's which would certainly make your average higher than low 11.6's. Regardless, one or two tenths is definitely "keeping up" as you put it.
Realize I am just giving you a hard time because so many people rag on the GTO and it is a plenty capable car. :beer:
Let us know when you get back to the track with the new pulley.
