Byron Dragway

12.917@105.45 1.800 60' (1.822 on next run)
Raceweight 3455lbs (I weight 185)

Around 60 degrees. No idea what the DA was.

I met Jay from Speed Inc while I was there. Real nice guy. He thinks I should get a basic tune to get rid of TM and move the shift points around a bit. I think that sounds like a good idea.

My question here is what do you guys think of them times? They seem slow to me.
I ran a best of 13.39@103 last year.No converter,cats were still working and using Yokohama 245/16 all seasons. Raceweight last year was 3520lbs. Average 60' was 2.0.

thanks

Not bad at all,get some more traction with sticky tires and watch those e/t's drop like mad. Very nice.

Those were the first two runs ever with those tires and the converter. I didn't have any time to get things sorted before the told me I had to have a helmet

So I watched a little bit and then took off.

I thought the BFG's were hooking GREAT for what they were. I was break stalling to 2k and then rolling into the gas.I felt I could have easilyu gotten much more aggressive on the launch. A 1.8 60' (mine) was the best I saw from the minor bolt on LS1 cars. They were all running from 2.1 to 2.3 60's on Nitto drags.

Thanks for the info guys.

I thought I would be going a little quicker than 12.90's. I'm a little dissapointed. I am at least into the 12's now which is alot better than the 13's

From the info I can find Byron is round 750ft above sea level.
