Thread with more on this kit installation: “ZHP TT impression”

So we all made a trip out to the local drag strip yesterday. With lots of prep, I was shooting for 12s at this horrible track, and Julio was aiming for the same. Our friend Chris came out with his e46 M3, as well as my room mate with his supercharged Mustang. We also met our buddy Laffyette at the track as well with his 325ci.

Things wen’t south from there.

On Julio’s first pass he broke a motor mount. On Chris’s first pass he snapped an axle (245/35/19 rears on the M3, go figure?). This put both of them out on their first run. Julio was able to drive home, but Chris had to call a flatbed.

On my first pass I went 13.12 @ 110mph. I proceeded to pull a 13.2, 13.3, 13.4, and 13.5 ALL @ 110mph… failure. My room mate was aiming for 11s, but couldn’t break a 12.6 @ 120mph.

Laffy was the most unfortunate out of us. He was aiming for a low 15, which he got, but on his last pass did the infamous money shift. 3-2 down instead of 3-4 up. He had the car trailered out by some guys that were nice enough to help out there. I’ll be updated with what he ends up doing with it.

The majority of my runs are on video, I just need to rip them off of the cam and upload them.

Performance only comes in one color, right?
