you're losing on the back half of the track. as aforementioned, converter and/or trans. i'd expect 113+ out of that setup given your 1/8 trap.

however...even for the weight of the car it seems slow. for comparison sake, i had a bolton 00 camaro that ran the EXACT same ET and trap but only went 87 in the 1/8. raceweight was 3620 with me in it. da was ~2500' at the time.

My initial thought would be its just not getting any top end but IMO the ET looks right. So what lane were you in ... a lot of tracks show a lower MPH in the left lane.

That pass was left lane, but I was in the right lane most of my other passes and mph stayed the same, ET was slower due to wheel spin though

Keep in mind though I did kiss the rev limit on the 2-3 shift which with these tires would have been just past the 1/8th mile stripe. How much could that kill off?

I trap 108 and run a 13.4 your trap speed does seem slow. but every car is differnt, rear end gears and alot of other things come into play.

your 1/8 mile time is way faster than mine and your trap speed there is 7 miles over mine.

I think either the rev limit was robbing me some or I was lifting before the final trap beam.

Hopefully I can get back to the track soon.

it's kind of funny you say that. when my wife bought the ta we were door to door from a roll in my z28. at the track she was trapping 99..i was like wtf. then i told her to stay on the pedal until she saw the board light up. out of nowhere the car seemed to pick up 10mph lol.

I would love to find out that were the case. I can't remember I was so busy dealing with trying to keep the car off the rev limiter I don't recall if I was letting off or seeing the lights first...or even where the boards were in relation to the traps.

I really expected to be trapping between ~112-115 mph that day.
