Default 10's all day, new bests.

great day at the track. Weather was awesome. around 100 to 300 DA, yes this is GREAT weather for Kansas City.
just for some infomation my car is down 10 rwhp from not having the 78mm LSX intake from my previous best of 10.928 @ 126.19 1.535 60' in 1500 DA weather.

1st pass,
10.925 @ 126.15 1.515 60' new best ET and 60
I also hit the rev limiter in 1st. but I knew it was gonna be a good day :thumbup:

2nd pass, launched off the limiter (7000) cause I can
10.843 @ 126.33 1.527 60' destroyed old ET

can't find the slip for my next pass, but it was 10.89 if I remember right

4th pass,
ran out of gass at about 1/8 mile and sprung a leak in a coolant line

5th pass,
10.875 @ 125.80 1.496 60' FINALLY got it to hook better and got my first sub 1.5 60'
last pass of the day though and the weather wasn't as great....

I'm still having problems hooking. I think I should be in the 1.47 range... any ideas????
I know these aren't necessarily spectacular numbers, but I'm finally getting my car to run right and am inching them downward

congrats! looks like that car is really moving well. tighten that suspension, god knows you have the tq to get out of the hole well! get into the 1.4s solidly and your car will really improve ET wise!

ya, I was f'n around all day with launch RPM's with the same suspension setup. when I finally tightened up the rear suspension I pulled the 1.49.... can't run again for 2 weeks though... should be interesting then. need a 10.7X!
