There where a few haters out there back in the day, before I was able to make it to a timed track that questioned how fast my truck was... well the last vid of mine should shut em up :D Congrats on improving your times Michael. Can't wait to get back out there

I set my goal for today at a modest 14.5... no headers, no catback, no ram air, and a generic uprev tune

Me VS F-150 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BJ2H48OOtk could have taken a short nap and still won it.

Me VS SRT-10 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPYfZD215zA Wish he would have napped a bit, but a respectable run none the less. Cool part is... he was not even stock :D

Me Vs Michael http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzeK8jgl_zc My fastest run of the day and mikes worse... traction sucks, hope uprev and tru-trac are out for the 08's soon. Once his truck gets going it flys.

Michael VS 12 sec Mustang http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSZ7EcXYXzQ Hey they do mod mustangs... never saw one before ;)

Michael vs 11 sec Civic (I think it was a civic) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Gwa45X6IXc This car crushed me too!

Michael vs Mini Cooper http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8Ityc7g_hY First one to the line WINS!

Also I love the interior on the 08's... big upgrade.

Also a Special Thanks goes out to my girl for sitting there for 5 hours by herself to record these runs. Reason number 6,543 as to why I love her :D

My fastest slip :D

My best time was today and its in my sig. And that was a mini cooperS. I've never once seen my "SLIP" light come on and it finally decides to show itself on my last run with my best R/T. Thems the breaks. I'm at 5120lbs +/- 10lbs. If I can figure out how to remove and re-install the step rails and tow hitch they will be in my garage my next outing. Until then I'll just play with the air pressure. I've got a 14.7x-14.99 truck, just got to work on my launching. If you were on the fence between traction bars and traction springs, I say go for the hellwig traction springs if your on a budget. They work great!

I was nearly peer pressured into slapping on kings drag radials but it would not have worked since the 08's have larger brakes.

02-24-2008, 01:42 AM
i thought the 07-08's are pretty much the same since nissan has upgraded the whole platform.... what size brakes are the 08's vs the 07's????

Mychael101
02-24-2008, 01:46 AM
Beats me. I suppose we should have tried one wheel just for grins. I'm thinking once I play with the tire pressure in the stock wheels and tires I'll get a 2.1x and once I have that figured out I'll leave the step bars and tow hitch in the garage with my spare and tailgate. And I can still shave off a 1/10 at no cost since I could stand to lose 100lbs.

Now I can't wait to see what the timing advance can do for my times. I could care less what it does on the dyno. I want to see how far I can take my truck with stock wheels and tires and some weight reduction before I drop anymore money into it.

Don't know :D Started to cool off before my last run. I think you are right about the fastest non header, catback titan... man i was grinning from ear to ear after that run. I knew 14.3 was within grasp, but didn't think i would hit 14.2 :D FEELS GREAT!!!!

Don't even know where to look for that info, It was at Texas Motorplex and I ran at 6:09 P.M.

Mychael, you can knock off another .1-.2 with the timing advance, and that will easily get you into the 14's. You guys had pretty good weather conditions.

Kingmade, I don't know what exhaust you're running now, but the JBA will perform much better than any muffler swap. My FFV wants to fly with the JBA compared to the Magnaflow muffler swap I ran at the track. I can't wait for late April to see what improvement it has.

Mychael, you can knock off another .1-.2 with the timing advance, and that will easily get you into the 14's. I'm going to shoot for a 14.7x, I doubt my trap speed will increase much. I figure drop another 1/10th on the 60', drop some more weight (step rails, tow hitch, and myself) and fold in my mirrors! Then hopefully Uprev or Edge performance will have something available for the 08s if not then I suppose my only choice is the VK-Pro.

I tried asking him about his car while we were in staging and he ignored me. I got in some more face time with the shop I want to do my turbo kit. Their car ran a near 8 sec flat at 180mph and near silent. It was awesome.

Its deffinatly possible a jerk on the freeway a few weeks ago was cutting off cars trying to catch up to me. The freeways merged and as i did he was WOT behind me going across all 6 lanes. He was barely creeping up on me untill his topend started to take over. OH also he got on the gas first and i had my MX bike and all my gear in the bed lol. 1/8 mile should be very possible to beat one. 1/4 mile would be hard

I know i got him to the 330, he had me by the 1/8th... A couple more mods and i hope to have one of the fastest titans around.

He wasn't stock, he had custom tune put on it and something else... can't remember though.

The cooperS ran a nice 14.910 @ 95.63. I won since I made it thru the traps first. The 60' times told the story. I had a R/T of .190 and a 60' 2.248, his R/T .525 and 60' 2.533. My margin of win was .1906. I think my truck was finally coming around. My trap speed was increasing with each run despite the winds increasing. Next time I may just take some folding chairs and a small grill and have a few beers and hot dogs while they let the pros and jr dragsters get their runs in.

It's not so simple, cut and dried as people might think. I've always said that until you get two vehicles side by side for dyno or time slip comparisons it's tough to tell exactly what would happen.
For a long time after looking at slips and dyno runs from other places I thought I might have a dog on my hands and was getting ready to change out a very good exhaust based on other peoples numbers. After I won the OT dyno I started to take a lot closer look at what I was trying to compare and it is just not fair to compare trucks in different locations and conditions.
Some guys like Kingmade are putting down very good numbers indeed and they have quick trucks for certain but you would do better to compare who they beat and by how much to get a better Idea of how you compare to them.
Let's say for example that a guy raced a Tundra and posted up a 14.0 slip to a bone stock Tundra DC's 14.2. If Tundras at your track run between 14.9 and 14.50, that same guy running the 14.0 might very well run a 14.30 to a 14.70 at your track.
This in no way is meant to take away from Kingmade and others quick times but since you and I run at the same track I wanted you to understand a bit about comparisons. Your best comparisons are against the guys you run with and they are the only ones you have to beat anyway so it just makes good sense to look at those comparisons a lot more closely.
I love a good slip race or dyno comparison as much as the next guy but when push comes to shove, I want a good old fashioned side by side to tell me the whole story. If you want to compare your truck to other Titans, OTV is a good opportunity to Dyno compare your truck, same Dyno, same day, against 20 odd trucks and that will give you a pretty good idea of how you stack up against other Titans with a variety of mods.
Once again Kingmade, great runs and love the video as always, way to represent man, you make us all proud to be Titan owners.

Thanks everyone, I knew she was quick and believe me I wanted a 14.2 run, and i have been saying 14.2 for a while, but in the back of my head i was thinking no way.... After I saw that i could do a 14.4 I let the truck cool down looking to try for a 14.3... I got a great burn out on the right side of the track and knew she was going to hook up great. When i went into 4th well before it was shifting in my earlier runs, I knew i had a good time. Got my slip... did a double take when i saw the 14.2, then grinned ear to ear the 60 mile trip back home :D :D :D

Nice runs guys. Saw the race with Kingmade and the SRT on one of the ViperTruck forums I frequent and decided to see if it was anyone from TT or CT and what mods the Titan had and voilla. That was a good race! Looks like the SRT had a slow start (launching them on the track with the stock 22's & perellies is tricky) but he ran a 13.62@102.77mph. Great vids though, what's the modlist on the Titan now?

Yeah the Viper owner is pretty cool. Will be hooking up with him and getting to the track as much as possible. Just moved to the area and it was good to get out and meet some new people.

My mods... Uprev, Cai, Locking diff, and drag radials...

Yeah i think i ran a 14.4 that race, my next one I ran 14.2 and I think he threw down a 13.4 his last race. We both had hot trucks after the 60+ mile drive to get there.

I need some but I have the Tow Package and all the tires are to short and hard to fit over the brakes.
