dude this is exactly what i said. i have never seen a car move the way his did on a drag strip. it looked like a 96 ford explorer with all 4 shocks blown out going over some railroad tracks.
@@AJUSA1 i think it needs the chassis control fixed so the magenetic dampers work again. He explained they're broken right now and basically do their own thing.
@@TranceFur The IRS likes to dance so you need damping control to get into the nines leaving on a 2 step. He should probably swap those malfunctioning shocks out entirely anyway even if they aren't completely broken and then he still should get the stop the hop kit... ALL the fast Gen 2s have that done. Possibly needs axles and driveshaft as well but he's on an odd motor and trans setup so it's hard to say on that. He should also be on a bias ply tire like a hoosier quicktime pro... specifically Hoosier 17604QTP Quick Time Pro DOT Tire Size: 28X11.50-17LT QTPRO works well for manual boosted coyotes to get into the 9s... stick cars struggle on radials. But yeah, if his shocks were somehow malfunctioning he could improve a bit just fixing them... but he still will gain more with the stop the hop kit and bias ply tires like the quick time pros.
What a lot of people often overlook in drag racing is suspension. Suspension is VERY important when it comes to your launch. It needs more compression damping so it's not bottoming out and some rebound so it's not bouncing out like it is. Give 'ol Jackstand a call, he'll tell you what you need to know.
I think you nailed it with the suspension being the problem. Look at the difference in stance between your car and the GT500 at 18:47 and the rest of that run. Your car bounces every shift, and while part of that is likely the fact that yours is not a DCT, it has GOT to be causing some of your traction problems at launch and on the street. BC coils? Fixing Mag? who knows, but I suspect that might get you more time than pushing power into it at this point.
The barra is a bloody good motor, even more so when they've been worked. I've tried explaining to people how the power feels much different to other tuned cars, almost like you're going into a warp speed. Once I took then for a ride in it only then they understood what I mean. Very good torque
@erikkhyndman9184 naw I mean Cleetus... Correct the whole FF team is what makes the dream work, but Cleetus is the one signing everything and that owns the track to be able to have him back down. Hands down get Zach on it and James and get Cleetus for the actual driver tips and its a dream.
Definitely would like to see you work with James/Cleetus on getting the suspension + short track figured out. Having the drag racing content sprinkled in is super fun and cool to see you getting deeper into another Motorsport.
@Latezen the rear is a bouncy castle because the front is coming up so fast making the rear off load. Both ends need work but the front is coming up way to fast.
@@jay1968. Sure i agree that the front end is coming up too fast but it doesnt fix the main problem that is the mag drive or whatever this had that is in some weird setup state. How the rear end is currently making front end come up slower wont improve the overall suspension setup for dragstrip that much.
After watching all of the launches, your stock suspension needs one thing, which is lower gears in the rear end to match the transmission first gear ratio. You have plenty of top end speed, and believe it or not, the 60 footers, and ET will dramatically drop while your mph increases. Talk to a couple of the major rear end shops for calculating the best gear ratio. Maybe a 4:30
Vids like this are a refreshing change from drifting I absolutely love drifting and seeing your progress over the years as a drifter is very inspiring but I’m a drag racer at heart and absolutely enjoy you having a go and getting better and better every time you go.. ps the mustang hits home as an Aussie I’m so glad to see you with a Barra in one of the best chassis ever the mustang
I have watched your videos off and on for years, but it’s been a long time. After 5 minutes; I subbed. You are killing it IMO. All the best to you and thanks!
Test drove a fg xr6t on Saturday that sounded pretty good, single 4" turbo back system 👌 560 whp 👌 It's when people put external gates on them and dump em to atmosphere is what makes them sound like crap.
Always lower tire air pressure in steps until it smooths out the magna-ride suspension. That is the biggest problem for your suspension. You will be happy with your 60 foot times. Yes, sometimes a slight clutch slip helps with better ET's made. With over a 1,000 hp, the clutch has to be considered a wearable replacement item, so that the rest of the drive train does not become a wearable replacement item. Keep at it, and eventually you will reach the wanted ET goal. Good luck with everything.
25000 likes in 17 hours. Almost there peeps. Best ep in a while. We need more drag racing. This is probably my favorite build. Glad it's off the back burner and into the spotlight. Keep it up
The BarraStang is a straight monster but I think the next step needs to be a 4 Link rear end. That will help with traction and be able to almost have unlimited adjustability on your suspension.
cant wait for your event in toronto been watching you since your very first bmw and when u snapped your bars on your green bmx can’t wait to see you adam ❤
my last 3 videos prior were just the new pfi speed srt4 vid, then watched the boostedboi wind tunnel, then cleetus leroy whipple, and then this. like what a great hour of videos of daily racing content. thanks adam. and look forward to seeing you collect a pile of drag strip slips fior all the cars. lol gonna have the most 10 second cars on the east coast.
Adam LZ Awesome Video I think it's awesome that you had a great time Drag Racing your Awesome Barra Swapped Shelby GT350 and I think you did a great job running a 10.9
Adam, call Kelltrac (Kelly Aiken). He used to work for BMR, But he is THE KING of S550 suspension. Almost all the guys doing no prep and big dog races use his setups. He's local too Bradenton/Tampa too, and he will get you dialed.
I bet the magneride is just completely off which then defaults it to the lowest viscosity, and therefore the softest setting it's capable of. You get that working again and it'll clear that right up.
Installing something like the Steeda “Stop the Hop” kit or BMR equivalent preferably would help immensely if you haven’t already. The rear subframe in this car is not mounted tightly enough even with stock power. Steeda Drag springs would also help a ton. Thing would be dialed after that.
25K likes, that's the highest I'll go. Once you sort the suspension, cooling, lila this lila that, this thing will be phenomenal. Always loved those new gt350s.
The car needs some suspension upgrade, I don’t remember if you ever changed the suspension in the rear, but it may need some suspension parts and tuning to see if that help your launch and slip less on the launch
Scotty aka the tuning fork saves the day again I like to think I'm the one that put Adam on to him at the start but surely I wasn't the only one lots of 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 here

As an Australian i am glad to see that this car is finally doing what it should of been doing, & its good to see you finally into yet another aspect of racing *drag* But Adam a GTR or Evo with a sequential & rolling anti lag is way more fun, plus we hurt the big barra turbos at roll racing here ;)
That suspension seems like it's causing most of the problems
do you know if he’s on a bias ply rear tire? i think that is playing into this issue too
Yeah deff the back is bouncing all over the place when he launches it, no point in trying to launch it
That along with the rear subframe bushings, don’t remember if he upgraded them but they have way to much play and tolerance front factory
I think this car could benefit from a solid rear axle swap if he's going to be using it for straight line stuff

Your suspension is unloading the rear after the initial weight transfer, looking forward to seeing you develop it.
Yep, front end needs to be slowed down at launch and it would help alot

Hope this is as good as the rotary Datsun series. That glizzy gang license plate is hysterical.
That thing has a better exhaust note than any barra I've heard, and im in Australia where I see them daily 😅
true, but your daily barra isn't pushing 1000hp
Test drove a fg xr6t on Saturday that sounded pretty good, single 4" turbo back system 👌 560 whp 👌
It's when people put external gates on them and dump em to atmosphere is what makes them sound like crap.
With a better tire and a dialed suspension is going to make the Barra a force to be reckoned with.
Adam is putting a lot of trust into those axles and driveshaft. Spinning on slicks with a prepped track is crazy.
you should get steeda drag suspension for the gt350 it’ll help so much with traction
"I probably won't do launches with any of these cars"
[plays clips of hard launching both]
haha great editing right there
I'm loving all the drag content! You need to get together with James at Cleet's shop, so he can help tame your suspension set up for more traction.

This car is so sick! Hope you're doing good Adam!
This is AWESOME! Ive been waiting from the start of the build to see a drag race from that car. 😁😁 Im stoked!
