Wow that's awesome, congrats to you and your son!

Thats just wrong. A kid I grew up with, put a solid lift cam in his 1970 Chevelle, with a

396 automatic, and we were all stoked. That #, 13.56 was permanently etched in my brain. He would now blow the doors off my 65 Goat. I have owned over 40 cars & bikes. I really can't find anything to complain about with my Maverick. GO BRITTANY !

We just finished our 29th Annual Shootout. This year we added a few additional classes over our typical Mitsubishi only event. One of the classes was the Ecoboost class.

My son, Zachary drove the truck, he's never been in it before. First day was the autocross, this is a race through cones, like a road course but on a smaller scale. The truck pushes in the corners but he ended up 4th in a field of cars, some highly modded.

Next was the drag races. The worst pass of the weekend was when he had to hit the brakes to keep from breaking out, bracket class, dialed a 13.60, he ran a 13.8 on the brakes.

He then entered the Ecoboost Class, which was a bracket class and ended up making 13 drag passes over the weekend. He made it to the finals, breaking out on a 13.60 dial in, running a [email protected] mph, taking 2nd place and winning $1,000.

The truck ran (7)13.6x passes, (4) 13.7's, the 13.8 on the brakes and the 13.56.

This was all done with our cat back, our filter kit, our front mount intercooler, the new Pro Vented Catch Can and the custom Buschur tune from 5Star on 93 octane fuel.

This truck is a blast, we've got about 13,000 trouble free miles on it, has done really well and I believe holds the quickest/fastest real drag strip time.

The turbo is still in development but is honestly being held up at this point by a cost vs demand for them. We may end up just building a turbo kit for it, header and all.

Great job, I rode in it the other day. It feels strong. -AMM Approved.

Nice! Any input on how those FX4 rear struts affected launches and the autocross?

I also have air bags for helpers in the rear, they were at 10'ish PSI to try to get the truck to rotate, it still pushes.

 

[Buschur]

I saw on your FB post that you don't have sport mode since it's an FX4. Surely someone near you in Ohio has Forscan and can unlock it for you. No idea if it would matter since you're using SCT but it couldn't hurt...

5Start custom set our shift points in the "Buschur" package tune you can order from them, so I don't think Sport mode would help.

Dave,
I forget, did you run the truck stock?

No, this is the first time on an actual 1/4 mile. Only used the Draggy before.

 

[Buschur]

How are you launching an auto with a stock converter at 3K?

Yes.

Perhaps not, but it would take 5 min with Forscan to try and find out!

Congrats on having the fastest Maverick ever! Those are some impressive times.

Mines faster! but nice.

Just a reminder this Maverick will now out run and out price MSRP with mods the GMC Cyclone, 2nd Gen Ford Lightning, and the Srt10 Ram. It just needs to pick up 6/10ths to hang with the TRX monster.
