DA was murdering the cars back half and trap. Really heavy crosswind also. 2400DA 79f .

Still working with the tune. Should go 6.9-70 and possibly high tens in the fall.

Pretty happy with this car.

Ive only done some trans tuning myself. Got a pretty good remote tune for engine but do not know the specifics. Did some logs with a wideband and hptuners and sent it in etc

From what ive gathered the combination of high compression and DI of the lt1 makes for great e85 gains.

thanks

Getting a re tune. Hope its ready by tomorrow. New tuner says im way conservative on timing among other things. Hes also gonna do a few more things with the trans that I don't know how to do.

Going back to the same track Saturday if it doesn't rain. supposed to be about 55 degrees. DA should be around 6-700 as a guess. The track itself sets at 800 feet.

Just with DA changes alone I should go 11.0-11.1 @ 122-123.

If this new tune is any better I could have a shot at tens. Ill be happy to just knock off another tenth which should be in the bag.

stay tuned....

900 da and picked up no mph from last time. Car is pulling timing and adding TM after the 1/8. The back Half is garbage I should be trapping ~124.

Once I get this figured out I'll be tens in positive da.

Just frustrated with the back half.

Ive never heard of a car picking up nothing with a 20 degree temperature swing. You have any ideas?

Hope I can get it figured out. My tuner has a couple theories....

Hell my car traps the same in a 2k da swing. Temp alone isn't that bigga deal. Coulda been alot more humidity in the air. More humidity is less oxygen.

The conditions were far better in every aspect. It just doesn't add up...
