Hey everybody. Tonight was a good night. Anyways the story goes like this. I was sitting around at home without any plans for today at about 4pm when Carlos aka BRUTE SRT texts me "wanna go to Famoso?". I'm like sure! So i quickly clean up and go wash my car then we make our way out to Famoso Raceway in Bakersfield, CA for the LAST test % tune night of the YEAR! We got there an hour after the gates opened and OMFG......300 cars!!! We waited in line outside the gate for about 2 hours. To end the story short we both got in two runs.

Mods are as follow....

Me: See signature

Brute SRT(300 Srt)- Afe Stage 2, Zoomers, 170* thermostat, stock f1's

Also....

Met a cool guy named "Jag" aka forums "Jag" who happened to be on the lx and charger forums and his car was sick!

His mods: Gsm cai(i think), B&G stage 2, sotck Rsa's, Kooks headers with hi-flo cats, and cut-outs in the trunk waiting to be installed!

I believe Carlos' best time was his second and last run of a 13.1?!?! Awesome time!

I think Jag had traction issues and ran a 13.8. Not bad considering it was his first time at the track and got his headers installed today!

Now for Me.....first run 13.5 and guess what? The freakin ticket lady gave my timeslip to the wrong person and with 300 cars i was like Fu*******!!! I asked around for an houre to find the ticket but to no avail. I DID get my times fromt he tower but the head lady "wrote" it on a paper.... which is NO good for proof. I was pretty confident i would run another good time as my car was close to the staging lanes hence less time to heat up.

Keep in mind....on stock rims and Toyo Proxes 4 my best time was 13.04!

Tonight temp during burnout was 166*, drove around the water box and reversed into it and did a small 5 sec burn out, ESP off for 8 secs with gsm traction 100% off, fan mod on until start line, and NO power brake, just feather and floor! from autostick and let the TSB shift itself.

13.4 @ 106.4!!!

Timeslip below and witnesses everywhere. Carlos and his wife...and kids

Jag and his buddies

And everybody else who surrounded my car afterwards asking what mods i had.....and i told them just a few.... ..no really just a few.

I didn't make this thread for the H8**s and i don't even wanna say that word because it's a dumb thing to say. This post is just to SHOW u all what can be done and how little difference (0.4 seconds) there is on 24's

All opinions welcome! How you like me now!!!

I'm #353...duh! and i ran against a Turbo C5 Zo6!

an impressive run on 24's for sure. Big props for that.

Where I come from a .4 is a huge diff though. I am still impressed at the runs you got!

Very nice runs paul, but you have to take off the 4's to be really impressive

If you were to cut time off your 60' with traction (airing down tires to about 20psi......but I dont know if I would on those rims ) you would have been alot closer to 13 and trapped even higher . Impressive runs indeed .

FireMedic,
I can't believe you ride on 24s! What an exciting evening you had and congrats on your resulting times.

You forgot to mention that this was accomplished in evening temps probably hovering around 90 degrees F. It was just about that here in Fresno/Clovis at 9:30 p.m.

Keep up the great work with fine tuning your SRT!

FIREMEDIC....This is a post that I've been looking to see for quite some time! An individual with a STR8 who can get the great time, as well as the headbreaking, loud ohh's and aaahh's from aftermarket add wheel/tire package. Awesome runs you had and quite impressive with the larger/heavier wheel/tire combo!

Thanks, but 13.4 is also a good time
