I am confident in their advice too. I know the radials will work out great once I figure out the correct timing retard/ramp off the starting line to get this thing to leave the way I want.

Very nice. That is a lot to tame. It would take me forever to get that right lol.
Bring it to Indy for the next Friday night Rage event. The track was killer last Friday. So was Muncie IN on Saturday.

Your right, the torque converter will make or break a combination.
Mine will only go to about 4000 standing on the brake, and flashes to around 5500-6000 depending on how much timing I have in it. Using my timing ramp, I make the flash softer or more gradual or come on hard..

This past weekend I went to Byron on saturday to do some more 1/8 mile testing with the car on a good track. The top sportsman guys were there, so I was able to finally put some power down. I ended up leaving the trailer/truck/car at the track on saturday night and came back and tested again on sunday.
Well I am finally getting the hang of the tires and combination now. I analyzed all of my data this past week, ALONG WITH and the time paid off. I came up with a timing ramp that is working pretty killer so far. I made it down the track 6 out of 8 times this weekend, so its came a long way. I also am extremely safe on the tuneup In regards to the timing on these 2 stages. I will be able to put more power down low eventually, but the starting line wasn't there on sunday to be able to do what I wanted.
On both stages my best pass of the weekend was 8.05 @ 174 mph, with a 5.21 @ 139 to the 1/8th with a 1.30 60'. All runs were made at a 3270 lb race weight. The torque converter has 3-4% slippage on the big end, so it seems to be working REALLY well
On my last pass of the day, I had tire shake when the second stage turned on so I pedaled it real quick and ran it out the back door to a 8.23 @ 174. On this pass I had even more timing in it and it seemed to really like it. Once I get my 60's down into the mid to low 1.20's, it should run where I want it to.
Overall I am very happy with how it ran for the first time making it down the track on radials, and running out the back door for the first time this year.
I also want to thank Justin Smith for his help on the dry nitrous combination. If it wasn't for his assistance, I wouldn't be anywhere near this point....this fast. He has also given me some pointers on other aspects of the car and radials, and his experience is second to one. I can't wait to get back out and try out some new things we talked about this week.
Also want to thank Madman for the chassis advice so far, along with getting a baseline with the suspension and going from there. We are making headway, and hopefully we can get some better 60's next time I run the car.

Make sure to click HD or change to 720 or 1080p as it was uploaded ats a 1080p video. The 8.05 pass wasnt uploaded as we had some operator error on that one....like blue sky

Looking good Brian! We somehow seemed to miss you making your passes on Saturday, but always heard the announcement! Glad to see it working the way you want after the last time we saw you out there. Still wont pull that chute though huh...

Yeah, I heard from lots of people that the announcer made sure to talk about the car for some reason whenever I ran...
