Smile New Best!!! Questions

Well, I went from the 2.73s to a set of 3.23s and finally got my 12 sec timeslip.

Previous Best 2.73s
60: 2.013
330: 5.668
1/8: 8.590
MPH: 84.95
1000: 11.059
1/4: 13.125
MPH: 109.11


New Best 3.23s
60: 1.979
330: 5.542
1/8: 8.381
MPH: 87.54
1000: 10.848
1/4: 12.959
MPH: 107.11


The one BIG problem I had the entire night was the car would hit the rev limiter in the 1-2 and 2-3 shift every time hard enough that I would have to back all the way out of the gas and let it shift and then get back into it. I tried setting the shift point lower by 2mph and rasing my rev limiter by 250rpm but it still hit going into the gears. I put my street tires back on and the problem is gone. Now the tires are not visably different in size but could the tires have made this much of a difference? Also what happened to my MPH? I mean I went the highest ever in the 1/8 this time and went 2mph slower in the 1/4. Whats up with that?

Congrats on the 12 second run. What is your rev limiter set at? Shift points?
