Default just hit 12's tonight. user status change please.

after a long night at the track and only getting 4 runs i finally got the car into the 12.92. theres somethign wrong though because it keeps poppin when it shifts from 2nd into 3rd gear, if i leave the car in 3rd it popps really bad on shifts but when in od it only pops twice on the 2nd to 3rd shift but in od thats how i got her into the 12s. i have all 4 time slips im car #639 if you cant read the slips i will resize them.

Are you hitting the rev limiter with those 4.10s?

It's hard to read those timeslips...what are the 60ft times?

And to change your user status...read this... https://ls1tech.com/forums/12-second-club/983966-so-you-want-infamous-ls1tech-12-second-club-next-your-name.html

no its shifting at 6500 i think my rev limiter was set up higher i have to ask the guy who tuned it what he set thr rev limiter at. i go through the trap at 5800 to 6300rpms.

on the 13.14et @ 106mph run i had a 1.90 60ft, on my second run i had a 1.90 60ft with 13.40et @101mph thats when it was poppin. 3rd run i had a 1.890 60ft and 13.04 et @ 104mph. and the last pass i had a 1.897 60ft with a 12.9272 et at 107.60 mph.

Holy reverse picture batman.

You should be rolling out a lot better on drag wheels and MTs with 3600 stall/4.10s . If you get those 60s down closer to 1.70s or less your ET should drop closer to mid/low 12s.

yeah the time slips wouldnt show up so i reversed the pic so atleast they could be seen.

heres a link to the video it wont show much because my cam or pc is messed up so its like a still pic with sound. in the video im the only one runing because the left line was closed due to a car blowen the trans but if you listen you can hear my car go down the track and it cleary bounces off the limiter.

the trans is completey built i put 200miles on it with the stock converter before i took it to the track so the trans is fine its shifting fine under street driving and everything but when i get on it and stay on it for it to shift through all 3 gears it will hit the rev limiter before shifting so maybe my shift points are set to high.

im using the stock converter because when i had my last 4l60e built it blew in a month and my trans builder said because of the 3600 stall and 2.73 gear it was causing the trans to over heat and burn up so he put a new stock converter back in it. but now that i have the 4.10 gear im going to change the stocker out to the 3600yank again and see how it reacts now.
