2013 Ford Flex Track Run - Second Fastest Time!

[14SHOCAR]

Proud Ecobooster here! I've been working with Sabtaj1 on a few videos for his flex. He ran an impressive 12.6 @108MPH on the 2nd landing him as the second fastest flex recorded on dragtimes.com! Awesome Work man! Checkout the video!

ALL on stock turbos!

Edit: corrected time

Nice!  One correction, that's a '67-'69 Camaro not a mustang that he raced.

Congratz! Any idea what the DA was at the track that day?

Just FYI the true 2nd place guy is Scrming -

EDIT:
Just looking at the list, I'm #1, 2, 3, Jason Allen is $4, John aka Scrming is #5.
There's some new guy that ran 12.60@108 that I hadn't seen before.
Keep at it, DA will help and so will front drag radials.
50-75 shot will make a HUGE difference and easy to install

Yeah I gotta get Sabtaj to look at this cuz he did a great job of pulling the 12.6. Thanks for the correction of the vehicle. I wasn't there filming so I didn't get a good look  at the badge. I thought Camero, but it looked like an old Ford Mustang circle on the back. Good catch.

Your post says 12.8, I didn't watch the full video, so that Flex in the video is the new guy on the list - Jason Allen, right?
BTW, that video is kind of dismissive of my work IMHO.
My 12.52 was with no meth, stock turbos, stock downpipes on 75 shot.
My 12.4 with upgraded turbos, upgraded fuel system, downpipes and cutout
My 12.3 was same mods as 12.4 + 75 shot of nitrous
The 12.52 to 12.4 was a TON of work and effort. I never ran the 600WHP setup unfortunately, trans wouldn't let it happen.
Also those were HIGH DA runs, over 4K for each one, that's why I asked what yours was, corrected times will show even more of a delta if you ran at sea level.

 

[Sabtaj1]

Yes, that would be me. Lol.  You went 12.52 with just a 75 squirt n no other bolt ons?  Wow.  I used the calculator on drag times and it said 425 feet.  The car isn't really spinning a lot. You can hear the tires screaching but when I hit 2nd gear I get a ton of wheel hop. I need to have torrie drop my 1-2 line pressure. I'd like to open the exhaust like you have done to see if it really makes a difference... 

 

[4DRHTRD]

OK, just trying to put 2+2 together, I'm old and get beffudled easily.

Good job, keep up the good work. Yeah your 12.6@108 would be a HIGH 12 here in Hotzona even on a great night out. If I could have gotten to good air like that with the upgraded turbos car would have ran an 11 easily.

 

[14SHOCAR]

I corrected the OP -- the time was 12.6... just an awesome setup all in all.

I think both of you have something to strive for. In the words of Vin Diesel:

Looks like you got some good competition

 

[4DRHTRD]

My Flex is long gone, it's been 2 years since I ran those times

Nice job, what rpm did you launch at?

2000-2100 rpm and pulled consistent 1.8 60'
This run was 1.82 60'
I never dropped my tire pressure, all four tires were at 38psi and I was running the stock hankooks.
