Default New best for Project FMS

Went out to No Problem today to enjoy some good weather racing <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Only two changes since the Thunder race: a swap to 4.88 gears and testing with Futral Motorsports Prototype sheetmetal intake with preliminary tuning(still have some bugs to work out, went from 455 rwhp with LS6 intake to 475 rwhp with air fuel ratio all wacked out)

Only had 2 full passes before 4th gear started popping out of gear..aghh

1st pass:
60' 1.498
330' 4.434
1/8 6.874
MPH 100.41
1000' 8.971
1/4 10.72 @ 128.62

* 45.1 deg-56% hum.-30.28" baro = -1216 DA

2nd pass:
60' 1.480
330' 4.435
1/8 6.881
MPH 100.23
1000' 8.983
1/4 10.74 @ 128.35

* 42.7 deg-65% hum-30.28" baro = -1374 DA

Both passes were at 3440 lbs

Now to finish some testing\tuning and figure out what going on with 4th gear <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />

<img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> .. kick *** times Allan! I'm glad the intake and gear swap worked well.

Oh, and no more gear installs at 3am the night before a race. <img border="0" alt="[boring]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_zzz.gif" /> I was dead today. lol

I just wish I was out there racing. It's hard racing a car with no cylinder heads on it. lol <img border="0" alt="[guns]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />
