I went out to Bremerton today to run with the NorthWest ProStreet guys. The only index I fit into was thier Real Street 12.5 index. Well after both of my time runs, the slowest I had managed was a 12.34@100 mph. Well I went up to the first round and managed a 12.52@89 mph and won!
Second round ended with a breakout at 12.34, oh well.

After all that fun, I managed to get a few T/O runs. Well for the time only runs, I switched over to the ET Streets. Nice. They hooked up for my really good.

Still not great off the line, I just can't get a good clean launch. I need to dial the fuel back abit, it pops off the line and kinda boggs. But it seems to move out of the hole good after that though!

First T/O pass:
60' 2.009
1/8 7.543@100.22
1/4 11.429@127.33

Second:
60' 2.113
1/8 7.534@100.68
1/4 11.401@127.69

Third:
60' 2.036
1/8 7.501@100.55
1/4 11.37@127.46

Fourth:
60' 1.926
1/8 7.356@100.87
1/4 11.229@127.33

Also, I never even got a warning. Never got the boot. I just figured I had pushed my luck enough!

You definately have a 10 second car on your hands. You just need to get your power to the ground! 60ft times kinda suck!! Sweet runs man. I drooled last time I saw you run, I wish I was there with you to witness these runs.......... :hail: Your the man!!! a roll cage is next right?

That's pullin pretty hard on the top end...so here's my question...when you gonna put a bar in so you can re-stall that thing and let 'er rip? I don't think your rommate is gonna buy a TIG welder tho...so you gonna actually try to get kicked off this weekend? I wonder how that "other silver turbo car" will run this weekend...I guess we'll see...but nice numbers man!

You want your old Yank back? That should get those 60' times down. What gives? Just not getting traction? Those times would seem to indicate that.

Its not traction, its just too tight to build boost on the line with out a two step. Maybe with a two step I could spool it up better, other than that I just need to get the converter restalled for a few hundred more rpm.
