I just finished with some new mods (read 3 hours before track time)

New mods since last runs include:
Vig 3200
BMR LCAs
Nitto 555Rs
Maintenance items -
Fuel filter/plugs/Seafoam/13111 O2s

Track: Bradenton Motorsports Park - 8.12.06.

Run 1. Aprox 6:15pm - Stalling up to 2200ish
(30lbs tire pressure, half ass burn out)
60ft - 1.806
330 - 5.394
1/8 - 8.329
MPH - 83.73
1000' -10.888
1/4 - 13.046
MPH - 103.87

Run 2. Aprox 7:00pm - Stalling up to 2600ish
(Let someone else drive the car, as I just had the converter put in 3 hrs ago
Change air pressure to 18lbs, good burnout)
60ft - 1.891
330 - 5.467
1/8 - 8.392
MPH - 83.97
1000' -10.940
1/4 - 13.087
MPH - 104.60

Run 3. Aprox 9:30pm - Flashing the converter
(Me driving again, 18lbs of air in the nittos, halfassed burnout)
60ft - 1.806
330 - 5.370
1/8 - 8.295
MPH - 84.05
1000' -10.846
1/4 - 12.996
MPH - 104.39

Run 4. Aprox 9:45pm - Flashing the converter.
I lost the slip for this one, it was:
60ft - 1.80
1/4th - 13.07
MPH - 103.29


I'm hoping the car was slow due to the inhumanly temeratures, and
having no prior experience with a car that has a converter, let alone driving to the track 3 hours after having the unit installed. No matter what I did, flashing/stalling, all of my 3 runs were all 1.80 60s.

In better weather and with more practice I'm hoping for 12.5 in "cold" weather.

sorry i think 12.7 is the best you will get unless you pull a low 1.6 60ft

other then that im not sure what to tell you corey. the car seemed liek it was trapping lower then what i would expect it to.

It's because of the 3080DA. We're at sealevel and the DA hurts our cars pretty bad.

Dang, talk about using all the power your car has. I'm surprised at the trap speed and the 1/4 mile. Obviously the car is doing well for where it is at power wise. I think a cam would be the next place to go to now, then you could maybe touch 11's.
