Yup, high 5's should be good for LOW 9's. My car went 6.03 @ 114 on a 1.39 60' and went 9.36 @ 145 in the 1/4 on that pass. We have made a TON of changes to the car since then. Next time out should be interesting if everything works like it should....

The track wasn't too great. The best the car has cut is a 1.37 It might 60' a little better if it had a TH-400 in it but it would probably stand straight up. Right now it has a glide, 3.90 gears, around a 3200 stall, and 28" tall tires. I have a progressive controller on it now and I'm hitting it with a little more so it should do a little better.

How in the hell do you cut a 1.38 60' and only run 10.80's? Does it cut 1.3x's consistently? That's an awesome 60' for that ET and MPH.....

must be the converter difference...just have the basic suspension mods...and that was on a m/t drag radial 275/50/15 (26" tall) and foot braked...

it is usually low 1.40s it hit the 1.38 cause of real good track prep and the air was better so it make a hair more power...

made 3 runs

1.38
1.39
1.40

there are slips on yanks site

That's some awesome 60's for the times you are running.

The glide don't help my 60's much either. On the 1.39 pass it picked up the front tires about 2 feet and carried them about 40 feet. That was off the foot brake also. If the track is there I'm gonna see how hard I can hit it off the line. I really need to get some decent front suspension in the near future. Mine is still completely stock right now.

By the looks and sound of your setup you are gonna be running just as fast if not faster!

I wouldn't do the whole tune up with it on the dyno, I'd get it somewhat close and then take it to the track to get it dialed in 100%. After it's finished then put it on the dyno. What kind of numbers has it made on motor?

I think it made like 346 on motor Now I have some pro's working the tune. It was/is AFU. I'll get her hammered out though. Then I should start to see some times out of it.

Looks like we'll all be playing catch up to you though
