Default 11s on spray.

Tonight i ran a new best. on a 125 shot i went 11.15 @ 121 on a 1.60 60' first time on spray this year. untuned with just raised rev limiter and timing pulled

Car is a bolt on stock internal 98 ls1, lost a lot of weight in the car should be around 3000-3100 without me in it.

Has a home built th400 with a Circle d 4800 stall 8 inch tc.

Rearend is stock but with lca's and Comp E adjustable shocks on a stock torque arm.

275-50-15 mickey drs on prostars. i thin the sizee may be hurting me.?

I was pretty happy with it so i checked the plugs and put the 150 jets in but ran out of juice.

Shooting for tens next outing.

Exactly mine has 135k on stock internals. iam doing a cam swap so i will tune it then.

But do plan on running the 150 soon.

i want 11.50s on motor and 10.50s on spray.
If the engine holds out through the summer iam doing a front mount setup this winter, and shooting for 9s on e85.

How are you launching? What rpm? That 60ft seems high.

footbrake to around 3000-3500 dont remember excatly maybe less. on 18.5 psi in the back and 35 up front.

the 1.60 felt awesome. iam sure i could get it lower if i tinker some but dont want to blow the rear apart.

my window switch is set at 3200-6200. rev limiter at 6500.
