Quick question, who has the fastest 5spd record.

Is it still Gary Kuhn? or did someone break that record?

Going record hunting:D Make sure you post videos and have sworn and nortrized slips, oh and 10 witnesses:rolleyes:

How the car running? got any new updates on it yet. My fancy blower justs sits as theres no rear bearings untill after the first of the year.

I took the plates off the car for the year. Last thing I did was replum the nitrous stuff, I ended up with a fuel leak at one of the fittings and gave up on it. Now we are getting hit with 10in of snow.
I was just curious about the title thing. But who knows, with 75HP shot and some alky and some drags I can come close.
The fiberglass hood is going in and that should drop some weight of the front of the car. Also the battery is junk so I might have to sping for a lite weight battery.
 
Oh, NO YOU DON'T RICO.......

I will be the fastest five speed car. Don't you even think aboot it.
 
I'm sure we can swap cars one day at a meet.

Hey, and it's not your fault if something breaks on my car.

Oh no YOU dont Casey.....I WILL have the fastest five speed........................................................once, when I get done. I would be willing to bet a LOT of cash that if I race it an entire day that the tranny does not make it through.

I think it is still Gary, but I don't know how long that will last. Right now you have Dan and Anthony pushing close to the 11's and then another couple of cars closing in right behind them. At this rate there may be another 4 or 5 cars with 5 speeds in the 11's next season.

Of course, I don't know that they will be able to beat Gary's time......

Well, I appreciate the encouragment guys, but that's almost a full second faster than I have gone to date. And there are some pretty good cars and drivers a whole lot closer to him then me right now.

There are also a few things I have to fix first before I can even think about this, so let's just see what happens, huh?

Wow,

From the article in the Mustangs and Fast Fords December 2003 edition.

Before the magazine printed the results in the edition he was full second and 10 mph faster!

7/7/2003 = 12.77 at 108.20 with a 55 shot of NOS
11/8/2003 = 11.755 at 119.890 with NOS.

There are quite a few 5 speeds that should be pushing past the current reccord next year. Garys still the fasted posted 5 speed SC. We need a 10 second 5 speed.
