Highest Speeds on Sidewinder/Thundercat

[justinator]

Mark my words.........he gets 150mph before winters over.

Hahah, I've been trying to figure that out for the last couple of winters and still trail his tail light! At 144mph on my speedo and still getting beat, I figured that it's time to throw in the towel.

That is still a freaking fast sled at 144 speedo!! Would love to be able do that on mine, even on ice!! Dam that’s cranking whether on snow or icy trail!

Motorhead, you are right, 144 speedo is stellar, and I can attest Slo998 has a very very fast thunder. I think he should change his name to Fast998.

147 mph on max spool 17 ? If so that’s amazing.

Max 17 is a great tune, but on this day I was running something different. I don't want to misinform anyone.

Stock gearing LOL

 

[NYTurbo]

Lots of overdrive . Lol

No I’ve got the big turbo so really not hard. Was running the 350 pump gas 91 octane tune. More to be had for sure but that was enough for conditions on that day.

 

[Fleecer]

Do you need head gaskets and studs to run big turbo?

Can you run stock intercooler?

Thanks for sharing!!

 

[NYTurbo]

As long as you don’t run race fuel head gasket and studs should do it . A good inter cooler is never a bad idea

 

[max rolph]

The ARP studs and commetic gasket is best insurance over 20lbs boost

Figured I'd post up a video from my first day of the year. Track was just plowed, poor ice, zero wind. 135.3 mph. Great start to the year. Goals for the year are 140 in 1320 on pump gas. 150 out the back door. Setup at full trail height.

Hard to reaad, 126 or 136? Camera/phone guy needs to adjust levels against the radar gun, not the track. All that white/bright is blowing out the view of the radar gun.
