Raised the cam only bar again tonight 10.21@132.21
what a day, i had a new driveshaft built this morning after i realized how good the weather would be tonight, go to the track, clutch still engauging way low, missed 4th, got ticked off, when to the pits, adjusted the master cylinder way up, fixed that problem, got a clean pass on a 1.42 60' ran a 10.38@131.36, mph looked good, adjusted suspension, 16.5psi hot in the tires rears at 4 fronts a 6 on shocks, left 6500rpm and well, hehe, the ride of my life, the rear bumper drug the ground(paint missing), i think the fronts carried past the 60' and then i came down on and beat the crap out of madmans sya bars, blew the hose clamp in half that held the front of one of them on from bending it and then coasted out that run, i think that was the show of the night, my mom about passed out and the anouncer was sayin all kinds of stuff i was told, and i just about craped my pants when i had zero view of anything
so needless to say, i got to the trailer assesed the damage, bent the sya bar back into place, put a new clamp on it and went back for more, it was time to dial in so i put a 10.33 so i had room to get lil better put 4 clicks in the front shocks and left at 6500 again, barely spun, barely wheelied, just 100% perfect launch like i wanted, ran it out, got my slip and HOLY SMOKES
60' 1.385
1/8 6.507@105.22
1/4 10.219@132.21
i was so stinkin happy, i figured it was time to ****** off the alternator belt, i always gain .05-.075 when i pulled in previously
lined it up got an identical launch and 60'
then my retarded self shortshifted 1-2 since i was still overly excited/destracted from the previous run only managed a 10.30
tried one more time car 60's a 1.36 and bogged a tad and screwed up my run went a 10.35@129
anyway, overall im so extatic, a clean pass with no belt would have definatly been a 10.15-10.18 range
