Took my tiptronic Alpha 28 to 1/4 mile track

All the passes were pretty close together. I am running Alpha 28 turbos with stock internals but a built tiptronic with high stall torque converter. I was running turbo twist hollows with sumitomo tires. I ran VP 109 at ~1.5-6 bars in 88 degree weather.

Next time I will put in my rottec seats and use my nitto 555r for the rear tires.

I will post gopro video in a day or so.

sorry for the crappy scan..I am on the right

I think that is a very good time. The torque converter really pays off on the first 60'. You hit 100 right around 7 second; it is common with the Tip that it slows down right around 120.

So, what was the car on the left?

Do you have bigger ICs, TB, Plenum, and Y-pipe? I found that those help at the top.
