3620lb race weight,428hp/376tq went a best of 11.1 off idle as the track prep sucked and i would spin trying to leave at 2k. had 2 good runs netting me the exact same times off idle.

looking forward to some better track prep and cooler weather in hopes of dipping into the 10s

Mike done good yesterday. When he figures out how it likes to leave on the converter it will be faster. It will run 10s no doubt. Track went away quick and everyone was spinning.

thanks Doug, i hope to get a little more out of it with some better track prep

Close to a ten and only taking 119 mph to get there... that’s a very efficient setup. Congrats. Get that 60 down a little bit more and you have it.

Congrats, what gear and running a 26 or 28 tall tire?

Thanks!
hopefully I can get it to leave a little harder. I think I may have to invest in some front shocks or travel limiters. might just need a track that's prepped good also. probably try a well known track that has good prep before I switch anything

was running a 255/60r15. ford 9" with 390s

Looking at your slip Vs mine... you have me by .1 at the 60' and losing by the 330'... are you shifting early or late to 2nd ?
Maybe try a different shift point or three to see what it likes ?

I think Mike's car just 60s good but don't make the power yours does by the mph or your car is lighter. You have 2 mph on him in th 1/8 that's a lot.

Think about the weather conditions... we know how that goes my guy.

you either out power my car or weigh less. mine is 3620 race weight.
thanks for the suggestions on shift points but it stays right in the meat of my power band. I dont have a hp tuners to log it but it shifts around 6500 6600 in every gear and only falls back to around 6100 6200.

I believe my peak hp was 6500 on the dyno

better weather and some track prep should net me some 6s and 10s

I've also got to work on my ram air setup. hopefully pickup something there as well.

Tuskyz28

Are you go do something like the Chris1313 ram air setup ?

yeah, thats what i currently have on the car but the owner before me done that ssra where it seals the nostrils to the lid. this time out i didnt block off the part under the lid, so idk if it helped or hurt it running it like that, so next time out im sealing the part where the nostrils flow air and just using the ramair from the bottom.
