Default Went for more testing tonight, ran out the full 1/4 and got a new best!!!!!

Here's the rundown on the night, got to the track, unloaded the car, unloaded the trailer off the truck so we could use the truck to tow the car to the lanes and back to the trailer after the run. I left the controller where it was last week (50% for .2 seconds and then ramp to 100% over the next .4 seconds to have it all in by .6 seconds). I warmed the car up, teched in and everything on the old plugs from last week. I then swapped all the plugs with the new fresh ones. A few of my buddies pushed me up to the line for my first pass, got up there, fired her up, went up, did my burnout, purged, stage and go, well since she stayed down so nice last week I was expecting the same, did about a 3 foot wheelie and I was expecting it to just level off and ride out so I stayed in it, but when the power started ramping in it instantly put me to the bumper, I didn't even have enough time to react, it was too late and I knew I was ******* high, I did my best to bring her down smooth, but she landed fairly hard and as soon as she landed it unloaded the rears and I blew the tires off and hit the rev limiter, got out of the gas and cut the motor and coasted the rest of the way. Me and my buddy steve checked over the suspension and everything looked ok, so I decided to make another attempt and calm the ramp down some, so to be safe I set it to leave on 30% and ramp to 100% in 1 full second. It worked, car launched pretty good but hit a rut or something and all the sudden pulled hard left but it was on it's way down from the wheelie so I stayed in it and I was way out of the groove and had to do some driving the rest of the way and I short shifted every gear a little bit, but I got her down the track clean and got my new best!!!! Went a 9.12 @ 149.48!!!!!!!

I have video of the 9.12 pass, but I gotta wait for my buddy Jaime to get his video up of the bumper drag, don't have it on my camera, here's the 9.12 vid and slip:

BTW, this is on a 275 shot!!!!!

Stock kmember saved it, there was nothing I could do, it was too high and I think all 4 wheels were off the ground, it actually hit and dented/scraped the bottom of the t-top holder area (trunk) it was so high and crushed the bumper so hard. I'll get some pics up of that in a few.

Sounds like it may be time for some XFI action to get a little better control of the ramp.

What the hell does it say at the end of the video?

Get the limiters to work and it will go faster.

What tire are you on?

That honda that you saw make a pass in the video before my bumper pass goes by runurshit on our local board and was talking all sorts of **** about beating me and I told him to come find me at the track and of course he didn't and he was just throwin that in there as a jab at him for the locals!

I'm running a 28x10.5S M/T ET Drag.
