I don't want your best times, I want to know what you have ran recently in this HOT weather.

I just want to compare with my recent times. I think the car is not performing to its full potential.

Thanks!

About a month or so ago during the SUNOCO big pay-out race I ran a best of 12.61 on a 12.61 dial-in to win the single pass jack-pot round and that was the my best ET through the day. I don't know the exact DA , but it was bad. Coach02 was there also. These cars just hate Hot and Humid air. Our mods are very similiar except I have the ST3500 against your Vig. and FLPs vs the Macs. I do know that if your running rich, then teh air is going to have that much more of a negative effect on the performance. I hope this helps.

What's so funny. That is the absolute truth. Coach was there. I didn't say this week. I said , in June, at that time, our mods were very very similiar. Lynda knows my cars and mods. I was just giving a very close comparison. I was just as frustrated and confused as she is now. It's the heat, traction and differnce in converters I can almost guarantee ya...Oh yeah,.....Matt,quit pickin on me.lol

Probably going to get some skinnys just for the track and see how that works out. The car seemed to like the Prostars better. NO, dont worry I am not selling the Z06 wheels...YET <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
Just getting the fronts for now.

Those times and MPH are absolutely incredible. Now I'm depressed again. Any Idea of the DA at the time of those mid 11 runs? That's a full half second plus over my very similar set-up at one of the fastest tracks in the nation. Actually that's faster than most of the heads/cammed cars out here in Texas. You should be proud. Congrats! I'll go back to licking my wounds. <img border="0" alt="[whiner]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cry.gif" />

Well it looks like I may need a bigger stall, some skinnys for the track, and lots more PRACTICE.

Also I don't have ATAP or anything like that to check things out. So there is no telling what could be going on.
