hey guys,,,I ran a 7.26 at a 1/8 mile track{hitting the rev limiter from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd} wasnt hitting it bad just 4 a sec. so im thinking she will run alittle better maybe a ten or 2 better.

any way what would 7.26 be in a 1/4 mile? i wont a 10 sec pass!!!!

7.26 x 1.57 = 11.39

You will need a 7.0 to get in the 10's

hittin the limiter affects your time alot

ya i no i hope i can get her down another 2 tenths

Your car easily have .2 left in it. It was bouncing off like 4-5 times going from 1st to 2nd and once going to 3rd. I think it needs to be street and dyno tuned, street tuned for sure. Who knows maybe 3 tenths. when my car bounced off the rev limiter it ran 7.98@83ish, got it to shift now it runs 7.69 @ almost 89mph shifting at 5500 going to 2nd and 5700 going to 3rd, so I'd say you should pick up some mph.

That looks to be around an 11.3, bouncing off revlimiter will hurt MPH and ET....but your MPH looks pretty low. Judging by your sig our power levers are VERY close, and in 2800DA i went 96mph on shakedowns. Perhaps your car is that much heavier though... More details on the setup?

yarrie i think the car has got some left 2, its has been dyno tuned

Well your car is actually lighter then mine. Im impressed u go 1.5 60 ft on BFG's though. Banging off the limiter on 1-2 can really mess with your 330 times, which can be affecting the time alot. I am not sure 4.10's would help that much on a 26" tire, maybe a .10 or so in the 1/8. Do you have any other passes on the car, did it MPH any different? I would be checking the basics, 92-93mph is too low unless DA is extremely high. Post up the track, time the runs were made, and date and i can check the DA for you. I would think your setup is good for mid to high 10 N/A.

its not going to go 10's. youre looking at 11.40's realistically.
without hitting the limiter, it may go a lil faster.
the last time i bounced mine off the limiter, it was .06 off 1/8 mile from my other passes that night to get you an idea. your car is a lil slower in et, so you have more time to make up for it. you might get a solid tenth 1/8 mile with correct shifts. that should get you some 11.20's if all is well.

i made one other pass and it was 7.30 at 93.19 still hitn the limiter, slower time but faster mph 60 foot was exactly the same on both runs.
4 me 2 get a 10 sec pass should i try and take some more weight off the car? or what? im thinking bout getting the car retuned!

it is going to be a task to get 10's where you sit.
a tune may give you .05 if what you have is way off for your setup.
youre looking at taking out 200 pounds out of the car, more gear, converter, nitrous, something. LOL.

Remember it is summer! You car will run a 10 just fix the shift points. I do think you need 4.10's that will help as well with the cam you have.

Sounds like a good running car! Have fun and be safe!

thanks man, i hope i can get a 10 sec. pass. your car is flying and it a 346? plz! tell me your set up thanks john

I cannot find track info for the elevation of that track to figure the DA for you. If u can provide the tracks elevation i can figure it out. More weight removed always helps. I believe u may have a hidden issue, because unless the DA is super high your MPH is low. That car at that weight should defn get a 10 in good weather.

i went 7.20 at 99.3 and 11.10 at 127.4

dang. get that 60 ft down and youll be in the 6's 1/8 mile and 10's 1/4 mile easy.

iv seen a car go 7.04 at 92 mph

TJ

iTrader: (10)

thats not optimal. something must have been out of the ordinary with the setup.

7.0's is 96-98mph. 92 is down around the high 30's low 50 range depending on the combination.

well with my 99mph pass was on a bogged launch....i run a 6 sp MN12 and 390 diff...whats that mph good for? i figured on a non bog launch i could do 100 in the 1/8 and 129ish in the 1/4

Get a shift light if you dont have one already. Precise shifting plays a huge role when racing with a 6 speed. I went from 12.8@114 with NO shift light to 12.1@117 with a shift light all with the same exact setup, no changes.
