[Lady's Top Banana Charger]

This definitely interests me! Though going to Sudbury this weekend, perhaps next Friday if enough people are willing to meet?
I have never been on the track and would like some assistance from someone who's been there! :wave:

[Buckola]

Count me in...weather permitting.

L.T.B.C I think you will find most people at the track willing to help. They're a friendly bunch.

[JSRT8]

I'll likely be there. Haven't ran this car at the track yet.

[mississaugamadman]

Hey Trevor,
Can’t make it for this Friday my sister in laws is going in to be endued. She’s 4day pass her due date I think it’s time to welcome a new member to the family anyways.

Soon to be uncle madman:D

But you never know the hemi may get restless :rockon:

[canadiancharger]

$#@!,
I have to go to Ottawa for the weekend, but contact me next week.

Next Friday would be cool.

[Trevor]

Racing Day, it's Racing Day,
Racing Day, it's Racing Day,
It's not nervous pacing day,
Today's the day we race.

[Buckola]

Just checked the weather it looks like the rain is supposed to hold off until early morning.
On my way!!

[Trevor]

I think I'm going to skip Cayuga this Friday night (September 8) but plan to go up again next week (September 15). I hit a best of 14.018 last time, and am dying to drop it into the 13s.

LTBC (and anyone else who's interested) - let me know if you'd like to meet up or need directions, etc. - it's good times.

Buckola - nice pitting with you! Make sure you head up again before the snow flies...

[Buckola]

Trevor,
If you keep getting times like that I may never go again!!! Good meeting you Trevor . Your car,s a rocket...couple of mods and you,ll definately be in the 13,s
Weather permitting I,ll be back next week.And again the week after!!

steve
ps. You got me thinking hard on the drag radials and a 75 shot:)

75 shot, eh? I'm totally inspecting your setup next time I see you up there... ...at that rate you'll need some stickier track tires for sure!

[Buckola]

That.ll be our little secret ...right...question for ya ...whose SRT8 did you kill on your 8:39 pm run last friday

[JSRT8]

That was my SRT, kill, I ran a 13.95 that run. I was sleeping at the light. Trevor, your car does haul ass. I couldn't do better than a 2.3 60' all night. My car had 800km on it, it was like a virgin, to tight and didn't know how to perform well.

[Trevor]

JSRT8 is 100% correct - the reaction time contributed to this kill, and I'm not fooling myself into thinking it'll be a regular occurance - but I'll take it where I can get it!

By the way, my R/T woke up considerably after I'd had a chance to come on to it for a few weeks in a row - I'm sure yours will do the same. Make sure you pit so I can get some drool time in on your wheels next time you're up.

[Buckola]

Glad you came forward JSRT8 !!! I guess Trevors going to have to issue a "Correction Notice" lol. Gotto admit...that R/T goes like a sumbich

JSRt8 , My times have'nt been much better. But I have traction issues. Hopefully once I get that resolved I'll be in the mid 13's

[JSRT8]

Traction issues? I could hardly get my tires to spin:confused: Are you power braking? I did 1 run while power braking at 2300 rpm and lit them up, I ran a 16.3 that run, blah. Do you have any mods? Any info will be helpful.

I will have traction issues in the spring when I put the supercharger on it. I'm waiting for ATI to release their kit.

[Buckola]

No mods and only power braking to keep me in place. Maybe 1000 / 1500 max. If I roll on too hard I break loose until the it shifts to second then of course bogs till the revs come up. When it hooks up ...its a rocket. I believe other posts that boast low 13''s high 12's. I hav'nt reduced rear tire pressure yet but will tomorow. I feel it will help. Stupid question...are you sure you are fully disabling your esp? I see no reason why you arnt having traction issues as well.
Will you be heading down tomorow nite?

[mississaugamadman]

Okay who is going to the track this Friday night?:rockon:

Mississaugamadman

[Buckola]

Me and the whole fam damly are going. (I think they're only going for the fries!!)

[mississaugamadman]

I'll be going up next Friday 100% with about 10 cars as for this Friday if I go I will not be at the track till 8:30/9:00.:rockon:

[ChargerR/T]

Can't go tonight, but I think I might be up for next week friday. Be good to see what times I can run before any mods really. Only thing i'v done is subs and daytona honeycomb grill. Which I'v been dieing to do but cant right now because of certian reasons and that, next year hopfully can start with some performance mods.

[Trevor]

Me and the whole fam damly are going. (I think they're only going for the fries!!)

It's all about the fries...

...Buckola - I've got a good pic of you at the line from last week. Do you want me to post it?

[Buckola]

Ha ha ha - you can't see THAT closely...

...here it is - http://www.2006ChargerRT.com/images/buck1.jpg - too bad I didn't get the tree in the shot. Darn SRT8s move too fast!

[Buckola]

Thanks Trevor !!!
I was hoping my first picture on the internet would have been porn related ...but this is cool !!

[Buckola]

With winter looming we're running out of Fast and Furious Fridays. Can we get a head count?

[Trevor]

Weather looks great - I'm in for Friday, September 15th - guaranteed.

[mississaugamadman]

I'm in this Friday.

[ChargerR/T]

I'll be up for this friday. Will be my first time to a track with my car.

What are the times that the runs start at?

[Trevor]

Hey Grimsby - I'm going up the back way (through Smithville) - let me know if you want to convoy. I'll likely leave around 6:15 (gates open at 6:30, racing starts at 7).

[Silver_RT]

guys on average what are the quarter mile times for stock R/T?

[Trevor]

I've got two sets of stock R/T runs on my site - www.2006ChargerRT.com

[ChargerR/T]

Hey Grimsby - I'm going up the back way (through Smithville) - let me know if you want to convoy. I'll likely leave around 6:15 (gates open at 6:30, racing starts at 7).

Thats sounds good. I'm going to Niagara college right now and living in a hours in Thorld, but i will be going back to my house in Grimsby to wash and clean the car before going to the track friday so this would work nicely. My girlfriends comming along and she lives in St. Anns, which if you know is like 2 minutes from smithville town. What route do you take up to the track then?
oh and where bouts do you live? I live right on hwy 8 just as you come into Grismby from Beamsville. Just past the new TSC store.

[Buckola]

Looks like a a good crowd heading out!!!
Charger R/T... You might want to bring your Dad!!

[ChargerR/T]

haha, yea I know, I should, but he probly has to work. I'm going to see if my brother wants to go with his hemi truck, he's got a K&N CAI, Jet Chip modual, and 3" exuhast from the headers back. They firgure around 400hp at the fly he's looking at now. He wants to put a SC on next summer. Not sure if he will or not tho yet. This winter were going to get our dad to start doing work on the viper, like exhaust, CAI, and other engie work to get it to like 600HP or so to start. He's talked bout doing it, but with him, he always needs to think bout getting or doing things for like 6 months to a year before he does it.

[Buckola]

Thats the problem with us old guys...we think to much:grin: Looks like we should have a good turn out..see ya's there

I spoke with blzcrzr, and he and his wife should be coming up too - ironically they are staying a few blocks from where I work, so I'm going to offer for them to follow me to Hamilton so that they can eat and then cruise up to the track (blzcrzr - if you read this before I call you, I'm dropping directions off at your hotel at lunch time).

Can't wait to see everyone there (Buckola - please don't embarass me with all that SRT8 power you'll be bringing)! :smoke:

[ChargerR/T]

Thanks Trevor, got it. ok, sounds good for 6:30 then. Hopefully the sun comes out today, cause then im going to be washing my car and cleaning it all up to look good. Cause it's been miserable wheather where i'm staying now so it's all dirty:(

I'm glad you and your wife enjoyed your stay. Don't be a stranger, pop in anytime:) Have a safe trip home.:wave:

Steve

PS. I'm nominating Trevor as our Track Ambassador...all in favor?...:yes:

[Trevor]

Whoo-hoo! What a turn-out! There was definitely some MOPAR representation at the track this time around.

Lincoln, Mississauga, Campbellville, Grimsby times 3 (a couple of sweet HEMI RAMS came along with ChargerR/T), and of course our new friend blzcrzr from Chester, MD!

Ed, it was great to meet you and Elena, and I hope we can meet up again sometime.

Okay, okay, Steve, I'll do track ambassador duties for Cayuga (TMP) for chargerforums members. But you'll have to find someone else to take over when the U.N. decides to call me up for that sec gen position...

So... whens the next track meeting. If I can't make it this Friday Sept. 22, I'm targeting Sept 29.

[ChargerR/T]

I'm definatly going to be going agian a couple times once i'v got my new tires on. Not sure though on what tires i'm going to be getting though.

Slicks or snows lol: Your call CH R/T




Sorry I didnt get a chance to speak with you last Friday...next time for sure.

[Trevor]

I'm trying to keep the track addiction down by limiting myself to once every couple of weeks. I'll likely head up again on the 29th, and then because my cousin will be up from Quebec, break my self-imposed limit and go up again a week later on the 6th.

So, this (the 22nd) is my break week. :)

[ChargerR/T]

ya maybe i'll go the 29th too then. got new tires put on today, and got some new xenon headlight bulbs coming in tomorrow( ya wont help me at the track but will look better doing it lol)

[Trevor]

Sweet - which tires did you end up going with?

[ChargerR/T]

I ended up going with some Bridgestone Turanza EL400. There not performance tires, but they are definatly better then what was on there before, the conti's. And I needed all-season tires, just in case I dont end up getting rims in the spring.

[Trevor]

Good stuff - anything's better than bald contis.

[Buckola]

Cancel that Test and Tune this Friday...the Canadian Nationals are on this weekend.

Next week for sure.

[Buckola]

Checked out the long range forcast and it looks like a sun cloud mix for Friday with temps around 14.c
SO.. whose in for the Friday Test and Tune.?

[ChargerR/T]

I'll definatly go if nothing else comes up. Be cool to see how the new tires will affect the time. Best so far after going for the first time is 15.019 i think it was, but this time i'm also going to take my subs, spare tire and any extra **** out of my car too. Looking for atleast >14.5 this time.

[Buckola]

Can always count on you Trevor.:) Is your cousin from Quebec coming too?
Question....I've not seen any stock Daytona 's matching your 14.01. Is there somthing you want to get off your chest Trevor? Remember the truth will set you free:angel:

Charger RT..your times will get faster especially with the new tires and less weight. Sneak a pass in when your girl friend hits the ladies room.

A friend of mine plans to race his wifes Honda accord.. the 250 hp one . Should be interesting.

See ya's there

No, cous' won't be down from Quebec until October...

...damn Buck - you are NASTY! Whatsa matter - still hittin' that WOT rev-limiter? ;) I knew there was a reason I kept these timeslips - as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words...

I wish I could use the revlimiter as an excuse for my poor runs:(
I witnessed your 14.01 pass so I know it happened...the key word here is "stock" :whistle: :razz:

Shoot - the only mods I've done to "The Chah-jah" are "remove CDN visor warnings" and "2-second auto-headlamps" (I couldn't even bring myself to snap the stop off of the knob - I've just got it sitting out an 1/8 of an inch out from stock). :)

But, I am going out to the lot at work here to peel my side-moldings off in a few minutes. I figure if I don't do it today (71') then I'll run the risk of having stuff not match if I wait until it it warms up again next year.

I'm expecting this to drop me into the 13s and further fuel your brash and unfounded commentary... :laugh: :razz:

[Trevor]

I'm back and the door moldings are now in the trunk. You better watch out this Friday - I'm sure I've gained another 8 HP...

:grin:

[Buckola]

Dont forget to fold in your mirrors too. "Wind resistance Son...Wind resistance"

If you get into the 13's I'm demanding a teardown!!!

Trevor...what day is it today? Barring rain of course.:(

[ChargerR/T]

ChargerR/T whispers *Its race day!*


It looks like it could rain this afternoon, but thats it, and then it's showing a high of 9°C. So it's going to be nice weather for our Hemi's to breathe.

[Trevor]

Racing day, it's racing day,
Racing day, it's racing day!
It's not doily lacing day,
Today's the day we race!

September 29th - Cayuga - Friday evening - 9° C - Cloudy periods - 10% Chance of precipitation - 87% Humidity

You dudes rule. I've got a get-together for a departing co-worker this afternoon, so I'm not sure if I'll be heading home from Mississauga before going up to the track, BUT, I will be there by 7 at the latest!

Staff are going to wonder why I'm leaving my spare tire, etc, in the office...

All I've got to say is...

...BOO-YEAH!!! 13.933@100.82. I think they could hear me whooping it up on on return road back in the stands. I'll keep you guys posted as to whether I'm heading back up this week, or what's going on.

Hopefully there aren't quite as many racers for the rest of the season - only getting 2 runs in really sucked.

[Buckola]

Congrats on that run Trevor...It was incredidble!!! Didnt Charger RT break some new ground as well?
The track manager told me they.ll keep it open till November ...weather permitting. They've not had a stellar year with all the rain.
Ditto on the 2 runs per night problem. They couldnt be bothered to clean up the spilled antifreeze so just kept one lane opened.
Let me know your next trip down. I'm free exept for the last weekend in October...National Sales Meeting...WhooHoooo!!!

[ChargerR/T]

Ya congratz agian Trevor, that was an amazing run. yea i got what i was hoping to get for my 2nd time(under14.5) to the track which was 14.468@97.19mph on the frist run and then 14.484@98.18mph. I probably could have done better on my 2nd run but the lights went really fast, so i kinda messed up abit. Both were good runs for me so far, and yes being able to get only 2 runs in did suck alot. I'm definatly planning to go again before the season is done. My K&N CAI should be coming in tomorrow lol So we'll see how that helps, that and the cold weather. Wont be able to get 13.9's tho like Trevor, that is just crazy for a stock Charger R/T. Anyone know of any other stock chargers running 13's?

oh hey Trevor i was thinking that you should get your car dyno'd some time. See if you got like a special motor from the factory lol. I wat to get mine done some time too.

Thanks dude - your 1/4 improvements were pretty good too! I can't wait to see your new CAI (so I can copy it on the cheap) :) and I would be all over getting a dyno done locally as long as it was reasonably priced. I'm REALLY curious to see what kind of numbers this powerplant's putting out.

Thanks Steve. Hey, I'm wondering what lane that girl who died was running in when she crashed her jet car on Sunday...

...I would be curious to see if it was the left. That really put a damper on my elation when I heard about it on the radio this morning.

oh really someone died on sunday...i wonder if it had anything to do with that spill from friday night that they closed down the left lane from.

i'm going to go to pick up my CAI right now then install it, so i'll try to remeber to post pics of it when it's done.

Very sad story. Hind sight is great but i don't know of a 17 year old anything thats ready for 480kph. I really feel for the family.

Teen racer killed
17-year-old girl's dragster crashes into wall at more than 480km/h on Hamilton-area track
By KIM BRADLEY, TORONTO SUN



A teen drag racer died yesterday at the Toronto Motorsport Park track after she hit a wall in her jet-propelled dragster at more than 480 km/h.

Not only was 17-year-old Kendall Hebert's death witnessed by horrified spectators including members of her family, but the event was "carried live on the Internet," OPP spokesman Const. Mark Foster said.

"She was not competing today, she was performing for the crowd," Foster said from the park in Cayuga, south of Hamilton.

Hebert was one of several members of the Gladiator Racing Team and was on her way to becoming a competitive racer once she turned 18, Foster said.

"She was up-and-coming in the racing scene," he said.

Hebert had just completed a quarter-mile run down the straight track at speeds in excess of 480 km/h yesterday at 3:20 p.m. when, "for unknown reasons, she hit the wall," Foster said.

Hebert's jet-powered dragster flew over the track's concrete barrier and rolled several times, throwing the teen clear.

According to Hebert's biography on the Gladiator Racing team web site, Hebert had just signed a three-year deal to drive the team's Firestorm car, which she had taken to speeds in excess of 482 km/h.

The site also says the teen, who is from Tecumseh in the Windsor area, "comes from a racing family. Kendall's father, Ken, races a Pro-Modified Volkswagen Beetle and her sister Shelby races a Junior dragster."

When she was just 3 years old, her father modified her Barbie Jeep, making it travel at 40 km/h, the site says.

Hebert was also a good student and enjoyed playing on her high school volleyball, field hockey, rugby and basketball teams.

Members of the Gladiator Racing Team could not be reached last night, but staff at the track were gathered together to mourn the teen.

"We're a family, we're all in shock," said a member of the track's staff who gave her name only as Cindy.

"Our thoughts are with her family."

[ChargerR/T]

Wow, that crazy.



I'm done the install and took it for a test drive and all i can say is ....WOW! There for one is a big difference on exhaust note, specials after 3000-3500rpm on acceleration. It's looks better, and i guess we'll have to see till i take it to the track if it's helped, which im sure it's going to. An now i got the cool whistle noise when you give it gas on acceleration. Here are some pics:

That looks great!!
How long did the install take you and where did you get it?
Do you have to pull any fuses for the computer re-calibrate?

Thanks. I got it from Automotive Warehouse in Niagara on the lake, it is a 2 minute drive from Niagara College where I am attending. It was around hour and a half from start to finish w/o rushing and texting my G/F too. I didn't pull any fuse, or disconnect the battery. No codes or anything came up when I went for a 20 minute test drive. It went faster then I thought it would. I am definatly glad i did it, looks much better and as I said before the exhuast sounds much more alive through-out the power band.

480 kmh, that's surreal. Thanks for posting the story, I was looking for it earlier. 17 yrs old, she was half my age and traveled twice as fast. Best wishes to her family.



Has anyone heard if the track is going to be open this weekend? If so, I'm there.

As far as I know I think it will still be open. Unless they for some reason are still doing some investigation as to what exactly happened. Would be sweet to see a Jeep SRT8 running at the track. Let me know if anyone finds out more info. I might be going then this week agian lol Got to see how much the K&N CAI helps in 1/4 mile times.

The track web site says they will be open for Friday Test and Tune. They also have a nice "In Memory of Kendall Herbert" on the front page.

See you there.

Sorry, I have a CHSRT 8. I never thought about the fact that the short form of Jeep Srt8 is JSRT 8 when I chose my user name. I can see why you thought that.

Steve, I just set-up an account for bulk purchasing Nitrous, this may be my last somewhat stock run(I have a K&N CAI). My car now has 4000km on it and it definately feels quicker, I'll finally have a good baseline. Only TIME will tell.

See you there,
Jeff

Trevors Wife and Trevor are heading up this Friday too! We'll be leaving as close to 6:30 as possible, and should be there for tech by 7:15. Can't wait to see the new CAI install.

There's a big SpoCo tuner event on Saturday, so there should be lots of road-rice around to fry up. Bwuaa haa ha... ...hopefully they don't clog up the track.

haha lol. road-rice :knockout: Ya i'll most likly be there unless something come up last minute. I'm shooting for low 14.2 or lower this time. I'll probably be thre around the same time as last time, maybe bit earlier too to let it cool down bit before the first run.

[Buckola]

Hey Trevors Wife...

What day is it today?:grin:

[Trevor]

She's probably still sleeping, Steve. ;)

Hey - we might have ANOTHER visitor tonight! :)

I spoke with Infernal yesterday, gave him some directions and offered up a convoy to get up to the track from Hamilton or wherever.

Anyway, see you up there...

[ChargerR/T]

Looks like another cold one tonight! :grin:

[Trevors Wife]

Racing Day, it's racing Day!
Racing Day, it's racing Day!
Trevor just can't get away
Because todays the day I race!!!

Sleeping - Puuleease, I was up the same time as you remember! Oh, right, you were still half asleep, stumbling to the charger as I pounded back my 2nd coffee, got the kids breakfast, got them dressed, put a load of laundry in and made your lunch :lie: Okay, the last one was a lie ;)
Just teasing of course. :)

Can't wait for tonight and it will be nice to meet you guys too. See you soon, only 4hours and 23 min. until departure time.

The realisation has just set in that last week was probably the last " Friday Fast and Furious" that I will be able to attend this year (unless the weather improves). I'll have to wait 7 long months before...

: The good natured tech inspector ( fail, fail, fail, fail)
: Stopping at Tims for a large regular
: Bench racing in the staging lane with Mustang , Camaro and other other car buffs.
: watching dirt bikes, snowmobiles, atv's and of course those certain Chargers:clap: :clap: thrash the sh*t out of their machines for the shear fun of it.;)
