builtgsr, I haven't been back to GLD with the Exploder for a while. I became an STS turbo dealer last year and have since been busy with the demo car I built for that venture and the resulting business from it. I currently have the X torn apart doing the ported heads and blower cams with a few other items I wanted to do to it. I should have it back together sometime in the next month once I decide to button it all back up. I plan to make some runs at GLD and probably Rt66 sometime late summer or early fall after that.

Hey screwed GT it was a win. Back then the Explorer basically had just the Kenne Bell done to it but now it is a completely different animal. A few VT Engines and Modular Powerhouse parts have found their way under the hood in the last few years along with a full Aeromotive return fuel system plus many more supporting mods. I am looking to hit solid mid 11's in the 1/4 on the blower alone. Maybe low 11's with the shot of nitrous on top of it. If I hit 10's I will cage it to be safe.

nice run... gotta love G.L.D. whens the next time u will be there runnin that thing? i wouldnt mind seein it up close.

Love to watch this video every time. Sweet X!

sweet explorer...woulda been better if you wouldv'e wasted the evo...next time...lol

You have no idea how happy your video made me. Huzzah for Ford (and Mr. Kenne Bell of course).

NIce runs Explorer!! I can't wait to throw on my KB 2.1 On my 4.6 03 Mustang, and get some fast times!!! I am running a 13.8 stock with only 4:10 gears and a SCT Tune!!!!! By the way my Mustang is an auto....

It is my Explorer. The fella in the EVO was sleeping at the wheel a little bit as you can clearly see neither of us redlighted. For those of you wondering who won, it was me also. It is a slight PITA to see but I got the win light though he ended up turning a faster ET. Gotta love reaction time! For those of you saying it wasn't a real race it totally dumb. Real racing is not just about ET's, it is the total package from RT to 60' to the end of the 1/4 mile. Give me a damn nbreak I was on friggin 20's!!! hehe. Yes it was at GLD too. This was a few months ago. Since then the X has received another $10k+ in mods. Will be in the 11's very soon once I finish it up.

Was that at Great Lakes dragway?? i cant think of another track that would have WIIL rock..nice explorer though

The winner is who gets to the finish line first; that means the EVO driver lost to an Explorer!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!! Fords RULE!
