Default FASTFATBOY goes to the track, times inside
Keep in mind I weighed the car, 3785 with driver.

The converter is not locking up at 95 MPH like it is supposed to.

I am still learning how to work the car and drive it.....

Best pass

60 ft 1.58

1/4 11.25

MPH 120.3

Not too bad for the first time.

When I fix the converter wiring issue, learn the car more and get some cooler air I can see 10.90's

With that MPH, shouldn't you be into the low 10s? That 60' is really good. Whats the reaction?

120mph is typically only good for high 10's. I have a Buddy who's car with him in it weighs around 3,000 pounds (Cam only 6.0 liter) runs 10.95-10.98 at 120-121mph cutting 1.48 sixty's

I think it will run 10's like it is, I learn to drive it better, get the 60ft down and get the converter to lock up in the back 1/2 I am there.

Hope you have a strong double disc converter to handle WOT lockup.

I do, a TCS with a big kevlar lockup clutch, similar to a Grand National.....weird, before Ed's tune it worked, and it can manually be locked up with a tech 2. That tells me there is no wiring problem...right?
