nice run.

Good run but I think your 1/8 numbers and 1/4 numbers are pretty much in line. Get that 60 down a bit and you'll get under an 11.5

Seem like my mph was a little low but I did have my tires bagged down to 16lbs I am sure I lost 1 or 2 mph.

What was the da?

I know this sounds stupid but how do I figure out the da? It was like 53 degrees in Valdosta georgia. I always see people talk about da just curious.

use a density altitude calculator like this one:

once you have used one a bunch of times you can guesstimate pretty close if you pay attention to temp , humidity , barometric pressure etc.. when you watch the weather you will start to recognize good racing weather and et's will improve overall because you go to the track when weather conditions provide a good chance at pb's

53 degrees in Valdosta was probably a pretty decent da.

Nice run...LOVE my FTI stall!

Yeah and it has 1.78 str could not imagine there hard hit converters.Total street converter and I was launching off idle.I was debating on getting it restalled to 4000 but it has some nice top end on the street with the low str so I think I will leave it alone.

Good to hear o.p. I'm Reading good reviews about FTI and might just jump on the bandwagon. Currently i have a Vig 4k which is a good n/a verter, but on the jug its blowing power and not so efficient. I like to have a converter that its good on top end runs as well as at the track, I'm wondering which verter from fti in the $7xx range would fit the bill...Glad you're happy

nice run!

I'm heading up to Valdosta (South Georgia Motorsports Park) this saturday. Jan. 5th I'm just hoping to get my 1st 12 second pass with my mild bolt-on car.

I work right around the corner from FTI, lots of guys run them around here. Needless to say I will definitely have one in my car soon.

Throw on some sticky tires and you will get it.That is a great track had a buddy of mine with me in his 2013 5.0 with bolt ons running 12.20 at 117mph on street tires.

Very nice run man! I am a die hard FTI fan myself.

BTW - I assume you ran on the 22nd at sgmp, if so you ran in negative DA all day long. I soooo wish I could have ran that day!

Yeah it was a awesome day I drove my car down from Jacksonville fl. So I only made two passes.I didn't want to break for a wrecker bill. I launched off idle. Haven't never launched off of a stall. I was told to launch off idle and let the stall do all the work.Would I of done better launching off more rpms?

Anybody ever run the 4000 hard hit converter from fti? Thinking about getting it.
