Nahhh. I'm only planning to go a handful of times more, but I'll never do corn, at least, not anymore than 10%.
There's a fella running I think straight corn, plus a Whipple supercharger on a '18 Coyote V8 F-150 reg cab/short bed 4x4 DEEEEEEP into the low ten's.
There's a guy in Ohio, has an 3.5 Ecoboost truck on straight corn, and tuning, also running low ten's.
I simply want to see how low I can go, (EDIT: without flashing the ecu) with good ole high octane petroleum, then call it a day.
I submitted my time slip to dragtimes dot com, complete with timeslip, on Saturday. They've not updated their site, so either they're hella busy, or they think it's b.s. time.
Oh well.
EDIT number next: when I say straight corn, I'm referring to E85.
The fellow with the V8 '18 F-150 is from Jersey I believe he has a YouTube channel, that kind of follows his journey, building his rocket.
From what I can remember, he has huuuuge injectors, either a larger or an additional he fuel pump, supercharger, and lots and lots of other crap. He's a huge dude too, not to be mean, but if a lil fellow (definitely not me, not huge but 235+) maybe 155-165 lbs, behind the wheel, it may already turn a 9 second quarter, but that's not his objective. He wants to go as low as possible, with his bigass in there, AND without going into the motor. So his engine, most likely will grenade at some point, unless his transmission/transfer case/rear end/driveshaft does first.
He's the main reason that has prompted me to give the old box the beans at the track, even though it's a different engine, his is no doubt putting out much more torque than my v6 is with 1 or 2 additional pounds of boost over and above what Ford gives us.
Google or YouTube search for boosted f150 or boosted F-150, that thing rolls!
