Question about my MPH? Well when I first tested out my new setup, I was running 11.20s at 116, then I believe the following weekend or might of been next, I was running 11.30s at 118. This past weekend I was running 119. Just wondering how I picked up MPH when I didnt change anything.

If you were spinning off the line and you dead hooked before that could also be part of it. Weather plays a big factor too though like PSJ mentioned.

Well the weather when I was running 119 was definately better. DA was -1104 on the 119 mph passes, then on the 11.30 (118 mph) passes the DA was +229, and finally the DA for the 11.20s (116 mph) was -750. On the 11.22 pass, that was my last best before getting the 11.08, it was with a 1.58 60 ft. which was the slowest 60 ft. of that night. New best is 1.48 60 ft. with a 11.08 ET @ 119.68 short shifting the 1-2 shift.

Verdad Gallardo i know a lot of times i post higher than normal trap speeds it seems that the 60ft is a little off of what it should be. i.e. a 1.70 60 ft always seems to give me a better trap speed than a 1.63. It just works out that way for me. I don't know why but i figure that it would be the same for you.
