Foxe`s Baby Is In For Some Upgrades

[Don@Arrington 17]

Ed has done very well getting used to his twin turbo car, so it`s time to turn the boost up and let the hammer down! We are installing a 10 point cage for the track and the texas mile along with an 8.8 rear. Can`t wait till VMP!

Must say, yall must love your jobs....it's has to be fun doing what yall do. Bad ass guys, keep it up.

Safety first.

[Hemiwoman 7]

Ed nice to see you're thinking safety also. Jason is going to busy with all the bars and cages he is installing.

Stepped up from the 6pt to a 10pt? Good.

Feel free to apply any loose change found while stripping out the interior to my tab...

Good stuff.

It is coming along nicely. All I need them to put back in is a steering wheel, a seat and I'm ready to race.

Jason's work is the fantastic and I think you've come to know how I feel about safety relative to the TX Mile. Nice call on the subframe connectors as well...great value for money.

What gear ratio are you running?

[foxe 6]

We (well, mainly the Arrington crew, but it was my credit card #) are putting in a 8.8" 3.23 rear. I'll miss the 3.92s on the street, but we felt that the 3.23 was the best compromise between the 1/4 mile and the mile events that I will be running. I can't wait for SHR comes out with a Viking edition of the new ZF 8-spd....

Big project! Cage looks awesome.

damn ed aint fucking around

im horrified

[Don@Arrington 17]

Good to see you Ed. VMP should be a blast...literally. Would be awsome to see you running with the jeeps

[lakersfan7272 59]

Where does a 3.23 put you crossing the traps in the 1/4?

[foxe 6]

I am not sure, I looked for some online et/mph/gear calculators but couldn't find anything that would let me put in the different transmission gear ratios. I tried doing the math myself and now my head hurts.

Using a combination of three different calculators, I believe a ballpark guess would be 4th gear at 5500 rpms
