kicked out of the track today...
went to the track today for the first time with my new setup. i didnt really know what to expect but was hoping for the best. the car has stock k-member/a-arms, power steering/brakes, full interior--street car. car puts out 714whp at 15 psi through a th400. i didnt get to weight it in but i figure it to be about 3550 raceweight.
first pass off the trailer:
1.74 60' -left on no boost
6.45@117.25 -1/8th
9.833@138.19 -1/4
I was told no more 9 second passes after this since i only have a 6pt.
decided to just run the 1/8 mile for a couple passes and work on my 60'
ran a best of:
1.36 -60' leaving at 3800-probably around 8psi
6.01@116.4 -1/8th
I ended up cutting a best of a 1.347 60' but blew that pass.
last 2 passes i decided to go for the money shot and see what she had. first pass i spun bad but still managed a 9.6@143 with a 1.5 60'. the track was going away but i decided to get one more in. dropped the 2-step down to 3700 and went for it.
1.428-60'
6.04@116.69-1/8th
9.431@143.9 -1/4
after that i got cut off, but the track was hooking terrible and i was done anyways. it was a very good first day at the track and all i did was play with the 2-step/tire pressure. i was very happy with the 60's and the car defiently has a lot more in it with better air and more seat time.
