I’m not a hater, but this is kind of a “sellout” deal. You talked bad about these before and made me even question why I was using them so to see you make an ad all excited to use them surprised me
Respect for getting yourself into the 9s especially with not that much drag racing experience. I’m sure if Cleetus or James were to be there you would have gotten more pointers to get into the deeper 9s knowledge is a huge factor with drag racing
It’s the torsion diff causing the excessive sway up top. When you shift, it unloaded the diff and power alternates between the wheels. Torsion diffs are great but not for stick shift drag racing. Load needs to stay applied.
@@lewlingar9524I wrote this at the start of the video before I watched it, as in this is what I was looking forward too 🤙the last track day it was a sloppy boat 😅
Amazing to pull a 9 with a manual and a circuit style gearbox! I'm sure I would have got a 9 even earlier with the ZF transmission but this is way more rewarding. So glad.
Have you looked in to a clutch slipper valve? Not great for drifting I'm sure but for drag racing it's amazing. They're also adjustable so could potentially just leave it on the car an adjust it when you need to
Sean's filming was hilarious😂 The Mustang has plenty more left in it; next step some skinnies, a clutch release valve and a (long) road trip to Cleetus and and the crew to dial in that launch. And for the 4 rotor; get a good digital vacuum gauge. The manual ones are hard to setup right. Find one in the motorcycle world where they are still common. VacuumMate is a durable one found in a lot of shops and I found very nice to use. And a good oldschool tip on getting a good baseline at idle; use a needle to adjust the throttle body's to at idle position (so lay it under and adjust accordingly). This way they all get a equal gap and (if the housings are of good quality) equal vacuum. Often 1/2 are linked as the baseline, 3/4 are adjusted to that. Doing it by ear might get you started but there's a lot finetuning that's really worth doing in using the gauges. And o yes the TPS often has a reset function in the ECU to relearn the range of it's TPS sensor(potentiometer) but you've probably figured that out by now😉
Hey i gotta say the soldier stick connectors are awesome and a game changer. I love electrical work and they will definitely help. Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered me some
You need to link up with the mechanical stig, his youtube is Benny's Custom Works. He has been drag racing a Barra Cressida for years and could help with set up
Just a friendly word of advice for the swaying. It’s highly recommended to run a bias ply front runner with a slick like that in the rear. Running a radial in the front and bias ply in the rear can cause you to wreck bc of the difference in stiffness of sidewall.
Hey Adam In Australia we have 7 second passing Barra's on the 1/4 . Talk to the guys at Dandy engines in Melbourne Australia Keep pushing the Barra Cheers
Even though I love the drag strip content for the Barra swapped mustang which is turning out pretty damn solid....... the sounds of the 4 Rotor just hits different 👍
when you sync the throttles without a vacuum tool, turn the engine off, take a 1/8" drill bit a stick it the throttle blade of the master throttle and use another 1/8" drill bit as a feeler gauge to set the others. that way the throttles are opening the same amount. you can not feel enough difference just holding your hand over the throttles. this is step 1 with any itb setup before tuning but i use it to base line the throttles if things are acting weird.
You got his bro man. Should definitely be talking with cleetus an haven him help you get were u want. That car's got plenty of power, just need to get itto launch an keep in power the whole time.
@@runespaze (if you're talking about the USA) Not on newer cars, NHRA changed that a few years ago when factory cars started running 9's after they banned the Challenger Demon, cars newer than 2014 don't need a cage to run 9's, for 8's you still need safety equipment.
If you’re wheel hopping you need to replace the bushings in the rear. Wheel hop comes from front to back movement of the wheel in the wheel well it looks like the wheel hops in a circle.
Congrats on the new record pass Adam and the crew! It would be awesome if somehow a Canadian won the giveaway (especially someone that purchased tickets to go the LZ Tour in Toronto) ;P
Doing to long of burnouts can cause you to lose traction instead of gain traction. The compound becomes slippery instead of sticky. Tire temp sensors can help determine where to stop, or have cleet and the crew check it out. I'm sure it could handle the boost you had it at with a proper burnout.
Should put an electric clutch delay valve in it, Magnus Motorsports makes one that takes a signal from the ECU when launch control is active and allows you to just dump the clutch and it slips the clutch to get perfect repeatable launches
Very nice! I race out there also but its so damn HOT out I don't bother to go to the track until Oct/ Nov. Your car would be a good race for my stick shift S197. I wish they made that inline shifter for the MT-82.
Biggest issue you have is your running a gearbox and clutch setup that's going to take a heap of testing to get right. Many drag guys with manual boxes run clutch solenoids to control the clutch engagement. Maybe they might help?
I cant say your the fastest but you're def one of the best improving driver's I know . This my back up acc, but been following you since I could remember. That being said have you thought about maybe you got a fault engine , cuz it happened to me when I blew my 427 roush and bought a new engine , they gave me a fault engine , It only lasted month
If you do want to run a tire with some side wall while keeping the front tires on as is, run a mickey thompson ET streets or pro bracket radial. Stiff wall DOT slick basically. i cut 1.5 60s with a cam only ls1 and a t56, dumping the clutch at about 6400-6500rpm. over 6000rpm allows the tires to spin just enough that it doesn't dead hook but still rides out. i run 15-18psi in the tires, cars about 2900lbs with driver.
Def gotta have a crash course with Cleetus one day have him show you the ropes and give ya pointers, would also be a cool video watching you progress throughout the day
As an Australian my suggestion would be shorter diff gears. Try 4.11 or even 4.56 as a ratio. this will make first gear a lot shorter and allow you to be making the most of the sequential
I know Drag Racing isn't really your thing but we need to either take the Barra Mustang to a race or build a true Drag Car for the channel!!! Loved This Video Sounds and Excitement Were Top Notch!!❤
You need to put a scramble button just reprogram your windscreen wiper washer button to turn on the scramble will make heaps of difference in your times

I was wondering how long until the lz world tour shirts get shipped, I bought one when they came out and it hasn’t been packaged yet
Adam is the cosmo build still happening?
Adam LZ Awesome Video I'm glad you ran a 9.87 in your Barra Swapped Shelby GT350 and I can't wait to see how much faster she can get
Who woulda thought it was harder to zoom in a camera than it was to break into the 9 second bracket.
Adam's face at 13:13 when he realizes the cameraman missed the first 9 second pull
Gotta take cleetus for a rip or let him take it for a rip
Cleeter could get that mug into the 8’s within a week
He’d find the weak link for sure!
U have to let cleetus work on it so you can do 9’s or Better
Him and Jackstand could get it down the track faster or help diagnose, James' knowledge is immense
Adam doesn't want Cleetus to brake them comfy stock seats like he did with the Datsun 🤣👍
You should definitely do a drag and drive once you get it fully dialed in
Agreed
Sickweed
gotta do a race week brotherrr
He would be stressing the whole time. We all know how much of a perfectionist he is.
too much time to dedicate for one thing with questionable return given he doesn't have car of mullet caliber
It’s crazy to see how far this car has come
Respect for getting yourself into the 9s especially with not that much drag racing experience. I’m sure if Cleetus or James were to be there you would have gotten more pointers to get into the deeper 9s knowledge is a huge factor with drag racing
I’m sure part of Adam wants to master it in his own as much as he can too
@@Hobbsthetiger absolutely. That’s just how he is. But he’s also really good at taking in advice from people with experience as well.
Sean filming the sky had me dead 😂
I hope he's not being paid 😂🍋
I love how once every quarter or so Adam starts going to the dragstrip. Great changeup
It’s the torsion diff causing the excessive sway up top. When you shift, it unloaded the diff and power alternates between the wheels. Torsion diffs are great but not for stick shift drag racing. Load needs to stay applied.
Looking forward to seeing it with the shocks working ⚒ 👌🤙💯
They are working
@@lewlingar9524 He might mean the drag shocks that he has but hasn't installed.
@@TheBCninja that would make sense
@@lewlingar9524I wrote this at the start of the video before I watched it, as in this is what I was looking forward too 🤙the last track day it was a sloppy boat 😅
been loving the content recently, can’t wait to see what numbers the gt350 and the datsun can really put down!
adam looks so exhausted tryna figure out the barra😂😂
Florida heat wouldn’t help either
Also his team has been acting shitty IMO
@@HeavyloadtoadHow?
@@HeavyloadtoadTell me how you can help his team then? that's what i thought... Quit hatin and do your own team
It’s also been hot as hell in FL. Cars haven’t been performing good with the humidity
Amazing to pull a 9 with a manual and a circuit style gearbox! I'm sure I would have got a 9 even earlier with the ZF transmission but this is way more rewarding. So glad.
Loving the drag content should definitely take this thing with Cleetus and his crew on sick or drag week 💯
Have you looked in to a clutch slipper valve? Not great for drifting I'm sure but for drag racing it's amazing. They're also adjustable so could potentially just leave it on the car an adjust it when you need to
would love to see cleeter drive this thing so you can get him to put a bara in something too
Barra burnout car,
Couldn’t get more Australian
0:56 good man keeping the stickers on the tires 🫡
This is my favorite car out of all your carz sounds so good

Well done the mighty Barra
I been using those solder stick things for a year now, truly makes wiring easier and enjoyable
Don’t let this man film ever again!
Respect to you man, you’re an inspiration to me
You need to link up with the mechanical stig, his youtube is Benny's Custom Works. He has been drag racing a Barra Cressida for years and could help with set up
That has to be the Barra in a burnt down GT350 world record ! Congratulations
Camera guy, you had one job! Well done on the 9sec pass Adam.
I personally love seans reactions, such a genuine friend! Keep him close Lz!
It was a little scary seeing how long he held the throttle past the boards on that 9 second run
Yea the power is addictive i guess 🤣
So good hearing that Barra sing!!!
I'm really happy that other people in the world get to enjoy the Aussie barra, I have a territory ghia turbo and its fkn tough as

Adam, you got a hit up Cleetus and get that launch improved. That bog is killin ya! Lovin the 350 content
Hey Adam

Keep pushing the Barra Cheers
its the gearbox holding him up not the motor.
Even though I love the drag strip content for the Barra swapped mustang which is turning out pretty damn solid....... the sounds of the 4 Rotor just hits different 👍
I was loving the A+ commentary from booth! Overall another great video 🤙🏻
Seeing the barra again and again is just so nice 😩
Dooood I LOVE the Barra Mustang!
hell yeah!!! could've turned the launch rpm up a hair to help with the bogging

Good on ya. These modern cars are much, much harder to launch and run than the classic muscle cars. Awesome
Sean, one job bruh 😂. Love this car. Congrats on getting that pass, looking forward to the tweaks to get 9.5s or better.
Living the drag content, good to see your cars on the strip.
In Australia you have to run skinnies with plies or slicks.🇦🇺 You also can't run 10s or under without safety
That’s true here too. Sub 10s will get you the boot without a cage and harness
@@runespaze (if you're talking about the USA) Not on newer cars, NHRA changed that a few years ago when factory cars started running 9's after they banned the Challenger Demon, cars newer than 2014 don't need a cage to run 9's, for 8's you still need safety equipment.
I feel like if you let cleetus race the GT350 one time he would bang out a 9,3 LMAO, Great job adam :)
Am so happy this car finally made it into the 9s finally 👊🏽👊🏽👊🏽
Sean filming the sky - you had 1 job dude!!
The commentary for the burn outs gave this video more life with Adams disappointment to certain things at first but he pulled through 💪🏾

Love those connectors. Been using the amazon special ones for years. Never have had an issue with a connection from those

jackstand could 100% give some setup insight.
Awesome watching you fall in love with drag racing
Been LOVING the drag racing content
Let's go respect to you and your team Adam watching from the uk
Australia 🇦🇺 here 👍
I must ask where are we going!? Haha I hate that the let’s go is the new woohoo! ✌️
Glad this car got the setup and love it deserved❤
Slipping the clutch is just what u need to do with long first gear. Some racers us a slipper added to the clutch for consistent launchs.
Should put an electric clutch delay valve in it, Magnus Motorsports makes one that takes a signal from the ECU when launch control is active and allows you to just dump the clutch and it slips the clutch to get perfect repeatable launches
I love it.
Adam- "I don't know what I'm talking about"
Guesstimates his passes to within two tenths every pass
those heat shrink tubes are no joke ! I used them to rewire my handlebars on my Harley
Nice to see no more VMS rears on the mustang. Looks so much better now
Love the GT350!!! And the Supra definitely has a different tone now but DAMN IT SOUNDS SO GOOD!! Especially Up In The High RPMs!!!
That car is gorgeous. Love what you did with it love that you have the full interior steel love that it’s a Ford Motor,
Always thought that thing was a sweet build! Give your boy Cleet a call for some pointers at the track and you can get that car to the 9.5s no doubt!
Very nice! I race out there also but its so damn HOT out I don't bother to go to the track until Oct/ Nov. Your car would be a good race for my stick shift S197. I wish they made that inline shifter for the MT-82.
Sometimes lowering launch rpm instead of boost helps dial in the launch if you’re spinning off the hit
Biggest issue you have is your running a gearbox and clutch setup that's going to take a heap of testing to get right. Many drag guys with manual boxes run clutch solenoids to control the clutch engagement. Maybe they might help?
Congratulations on the 9 sec pass!
i cant believe how much of a pounding that engine has taken and it still seems to be going strong
Can you please get it a set of nice forged drag setup.. welds, belaks etc etc would look so much better, oh and a beadlock
I cant say your the fastest but you're def one of the best improving driver's I know . This my back up acc, but been following you since I could remember.
That being said have you thought about maybe you got a fault engine , cuz it happened to me when I blew my 427 roush and bought a new engine , they gave me a fault engine , It only lasted month
Been impatiently waiting for this one to drop.
Loving the drag content adam keep up the great work!!
The bara 350 is the perfect car for Hoonigans This vs That, an I know they would love to have Adam on as well.
“Great way to stay in shape” man’s watch’s family guy 😂
That car has a low 9 in it Adam. Nice job man. Loving the drag racing content
It was only a matter of time. Thing is a beast! 🤘🏽
If the Barra GT350 ends up being a hero car for the channel, I say it should get treated to an iconic Ford mystichrome paintjob.
A great way to stay in shape
Also to avoid all the swaying up top, you're gonna want a bias play tire in the front as well.
Bam gets it done!! Top work man
and a great way to stay in shape
I think we need another Barra GT350 Tee release.
You should look into boost by speed to help with the launch
If you do want to run a tire with some side wall while keeping the front tires on as is, run a mickey thompson ET streets or pro bracket radial. Stiff wall DOT slick basically. i cut 1.5 60s with a cam only ls1 and a t56, dumping the clutch at about 6400-6500rpm. over 6000rpm allows the tires to spin just enough that it doesn't dead hook but still rides out. i run 15-18psi in the tires, cars about 2900lbs with driver.
Def gotta have a crash course with Cleetus one day have him show you the ropes and give ya pointers, would also be a cool video watching you progress throughout the day
If would be sick to put a Barra in the RTR drift car also just to show the difference having V8’s and a 6 in the RTR fleet
"Great way to stay in shape." The casual family guy throw-in
I think this is my favorite car from Adam's collection.
Adam getting frustrated at 7:35 is every drag racer ever 😂
If 1st is to tall or long you can change the rear to a higher final gear for a better start and less likely to break
Mike needs to give booth some lessons on how to hold a camera 😂😂😂 congrats on the 9
As an Australian my suggestion would be shorter diff gears. Try 4.11 or even 4.56 as a ratio. this will make first gear a lot shorter and allow you to be making the most of the sequential
Dope! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 was nice to see this car and you drag racing
What an awesome build and awesome video. Crazy its running a 9.8 at that weight. I wonder what it would do in a lighter chasis.
That combo will run high 8s. Here in Oz plenty of people are running high 8s in 4 door 1750kg family sedans with this engine on stock crank and cams
This is exactly what i knew this car could do. Complete Monster
I know Drag Racing isn't really your thing but we need to either take the Barra Mustang to a race or build a true Drag Car for the channel!!! Loved This Video Sounds and Excitement Were Top Notch!!❤
