Trilogy car goes 12.69 in Bowlinggreen, KY

[Lidio]

Just wanted to give yet another awesome update on the Trilogy number-1 car. Jerry has it in Bowling Green, Kentucky for the NMRA race at Beechbend raceway.

As predicted with the slightly cooler air…. About mid 70 degree temps. The car blasted a 12.69 @ 108.6!! This is with only a 1.94 sixty foot.
In TX it sixty footed in the 1.87 range which is very good for a car of that nature on street tires. With 50-60 degree temps and the 60 foots where they should be, I feel that 12.50’s later this fall are totally with in reach. This is all being accomplished with a guy who’s only been down the drag strip two or three times before! Just a simple burn out and then floor it with the shifter in drive when the lights come down.

Quick recap on the car:

-Trilogy blower making about 11.8psi
-4.10 gears
-Nitto 305-45-18’s on widened 18X9.5 wheels
-FlowMaster 50 series delta-flow mufflers
-custom 2 ¼ x-pipe from the stock four cats back to the mufflers, all other
exhaust including manifolds, cats and tails are stock

The trans and torque converter are stock and the vehicle weight is stock except the jack and spare are pulled for drag racing.


Thanks

For those of us fortunate enough to drive this car in Marauderville....we already KNEW it was a mid-12 sec. car.

Congrats!:up:

Nice run. That puts in some very elite company. That beats the Z06 Vette and 360 Modena Ferrari. Just imagine, out with the family and you blow the doors off a Ferrari. Great.

Great driving Jerry!! With nice weather these Trilogy cars run like Jet planes! Those are some very nice numbers. You and Lidio have come up with a killer car with a minimum of modifications.

No surprise to me. When I drove that car at Ennis, I wanted to just keep driving it all the way home to Houston!

[Slowpoke]

in THAT car you probably woulda made it from Ennis to Houston in an hour - and that includes the time to stop at a truckstop to send good 'ol Slowpoke a postacrd.

Folks,

The next day I ran a 12.68 at 108. Reaction time was .288. And I am as green as grass on the drag strip. Imagine what it would do in the hands of a professional like Lidio. Thanks for making the post Lidio.

Back to work. See Ya!

MUST........... FIND........... MONEY............

Jerry, you have found the ultimate male adult candy...

Having driven your land rocket at Ennis, I can easily imagine the sound and feel of a 12.something run at a dragstrip. As easy as the car is to drive, I can see how your reaction time and interval times are great without working hard.

That whining, whooshing noise is addictive as he11, and I sure could imagine getting the kick in the pants every weekend.

That blower is probably the coolest looking mod ever seen on a street sedan...

FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....FIND MONEY....

Hey Folks,

I really need to mention another group of people that have been a hugh factor in the Trilogy Motorsports Supercharger Kit.

A hugh THANK YOU needs to go to Doug and Ken Holloway at BilletFlow. They have worked countless hours, day and night, to get the quality we were looking for and meet the outrageous timing that we ask them to meet! They will be major suppliers to some of the components we have on our kit and they have been great advisors as to the best approach to take in the manufacturing process.
