Default 1st time at the track

well guys , went to the track last night, and was a little dissapointed at my et.. but i didnt have time to practice more since mustangs were breakin left and right... here's my timeslip

60' 2.0
330 5.621
1/8 8.6
mph 78.26
1000' 11.309
1/4 13.579
mph 99.14




my shift pts are way too low for my motor, thats why i THINK mt MPH is so low



mods are LE1 H/C 226/230 111 lsa, LT's w/ true duals, 3600 Circle D stall, built 4l60e , SFC, stock 323s, stock suspension, Forged bottom end , mail order tune..

shifts points on the stock tach are 6000 RPM, but my tach is off by around 200 rpm, so its actually 5800-5900 shift pts...


any comments or suggestions are welcome

Holy cow! Where did you race? What as the DA? What was your launching technique?

I ran a 12.4@111 with virtually the same mods and no tune what so ever.

Where you on street tires?

Any video of the pass?

Check your DA. Something isnt right or the DA is horrible.

No expert but I would ditch the mail order tune and get a real tune on a dyno by someone that is known for great reliable tunes.
