Hi Ghastly, my Dark Horse drag pack - fronts are Weld Ventura 20x5 rims with Bridgestone Ecopia 175/55 R20 tires. My rears are Weld Ventura Beadlocks 18x10 with Mickey Thompson ET Street R Drag Radial P305/45 R18. This is what was originally suggested to me by Beefcake Racing and it has worked...
I had mine replaced while the whipple was being installed since they were that far down. This is the video of my install. It’s just one opinion, take it for what it’s worth.
ok, why does a simple whipple open air box kit with nothing but plastic and rubber have to turn from what should’ve been a 45 minute job max into a 2 hour cuss fest. Apparently I don’t have the suave and debonair like Lethal’s Mustang King to keep an easy job an easy job, even when using his...
Great question, thought about that 'after' I left the track. I set the rear pressure to 20# just cause I had read somewhere to start there. I was thinking I would try 17/18 on this next go round.
Thanks....I just saw your youtube page....actually watched a couple vids a while back....nice to meet you and good luck on the savings. This is an expensive hobby for sure!!!
Absolutely, my fronts are Weld Ventura 20x5 rims with Bridgestone Ecopia 175/55 R20 tires. My rears are Weld Ventura Beadlocks 18x10 with Mickey Thompson ET Street R Drag Radial P305/45 R18. I’m no expert but don’t think you can go smaller than 18 on the rears on a Dark Horse. From my reading...
My stage 2 came with a 3.75 pulley. I’ve heard that one of my future changes will probably eventually be changing the pulley to a smaller size but at some point that may also require an upgraded fuel system to feed it enough go go juice. Some people say going smaller or too small can start...
Don't know what DA was that day but do remember it being almost 90 degrees. Tires are Micky Thompson Street R Radials and zero other mods or weight reduction.
Appreciate everyone’s feedback. I hover a lot and try to read first before asking questions but I am a newbie at the end of the day around drag racing and the technical in’s and out’s….still have a ton to learn but I’m having fun and y’all’s input helps. Here’s a copy of the slip, don’t see DA...
No sir, this is a stage 2 kit with the 112MM throttle body....not sure why only 131/132 MPH but maybe just me not getting going enough off the line. Even with Drag Pack still slipping a little sometimes.....Maybe I can improve that next week with some more practice....fingers crossed
Hope I'm replying properly....I'm getting about 1.5 to 1.9 in the 60 ft, depending on my braking. I'm not dialed in enough to hold the brake and know where the RPM needs to be before it wants to break the tires loose or I start creeping forward toward red lighting....I still have some 'learning'...
Just posting a thread for fun conversation. Took the 10R80 Dark Horse to the strip to get a baseline about two months ago, completely stock including rims and tires (12.7 first time, 12.3 second time). Got the Whipple and drag pack put on and took it back just to get a feel for her, everything...
Hi all....can't speak to the manual but just got my whipple finished about a week ago. She was fun before but now she takes fun to the next level. For those of you waiting, my opinion, you just can't go wrong if you decide to pull the trigger.....auto or stick!!
