hagenjc9 Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hey everyone, just wondering if anybody has brought there Comanche out to the drag strip before? I am planning on going down to the strip in April to race my buddy who drives a lifted 86 Toyota Landcruiser. I was just wondering what times I should be looking for out of my MJ, and if any of yall have been before, what your times were.......oh ya and if any of you FL members would like to come along i can figure out a specific date and all. It will be at PBIR...formerly Moroso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dadinator Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Somewhere between slow and real slow is my guess. :yes: Have fun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89eliminator Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 did it a few times. first time it was completely stock sans a flowmaster muffler. best time was 17.30. went back a few years later when i was on 33s. ran 19.01. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 My vehicles leak oil, so I can't take them to the strip. A buddy that usually races his Mustang took his XJ to the strip a few times and consistently runs in the 17s with 31" tires and stock gears. With stock tires, high 16s might be possible. assuming you have a 4.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comanche County Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 A 4.0 and auto would be best, and depending on your tires/traction you may want bring some extra weight to put in the bed if its allowed. NP 242? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Straight line, I'd use 4wd with the 231 on take-off if traction was a problem, then go back to 2wd immediately after launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagenjc9 Posted January 24, 2012 Author Share Posted January 24, 2012 Ive got some oil leaks to fix myself before i go out there too. I'm expecting one sloooow race since I am on 33's with not much tread left on em, and yes 4.0, ax-15, 5 speed. Ill be sure to record it for everyone to see. Oh ya and i won't be to mad "if" the d35 decides to die on me....iv been looking for and excuse to do the 8.25 SOA conversion. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
