Asked Torrie if a little extra shot of ethanol would push you into the 11's?  :D
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I've tried a E Brake burnout before. Works fine on the street, if done correctly. But at the track it sounded like the engine banged against the firewall. So I don't do it anymore, but stiffer engine mounts would be helpful.

That's a good heads up. The motor mounts do seem pretty squishy. Maybe we should see if mike can help us with that too.

I could put in some 102 with the meth and turn up the timing more...maybe next season. Tomorrows the last race for me.

Thanks for the comments. Not looking for any home runs, just base hits. Next target is 12.1x, after that, 12.0x and so on. She'll be in the 11's one of these days...I think. 😜

Well, it wasn't in the cards today boys.  Looks like the combination of the tune changes torrie and I made and a little slicker track made for 3 terrible passes where it spun so hard that it wouldn't complete the 1-2 and or the 2-3 shift.

Looks like I will be investing in some drag only front wheels and tires for next season.

How are you doing this without destroying the awd system?

It's all about tire diameter. Must be the same.

Barely engaging the e brake disables the awd system.
Just 1click is usually enough to turn the e brake light on.

I think if you try to drive with the E-brake engaged, the car will automatically shut down AWD to protect it.

Yeah, I tried to do a ebrake burnout. Didn't work to well.
