Took the car to US41 on sunday to finally test out my cam. I blew up my tranny a few weeks after I installed it, so I couldn't make any runs earlier when it was nice and cold out.

Anyway, the track was REALLY busy that day with approximatley 7 cars breaking/spilling fluids on the track in a mere 2 hours that I was there. So I only got 2 decent runs.

I'm battling some clutch slipping isues. For the first time ever, my Cartek (which has 20K on it) slipped a little on the launch. Not sure if its because the clutch is just getting old, or if I adjusted the master clyinder out to far. I couldn't get better than a 1.69 60 foot. Anyway, I still got my 11s finally, running an 11.89 @ 116.6 (1.69). Hmmmm, wanted more MPH than that. Possible the clutch was slipping on the big end also? Not sure.

DA was arround +1400. Raceweight (me in the car) was approx. 3530 pounds.

What kinda MPH and 60 foots should I be shooting for. Assuming the cltuch holds I don't see any reason why I can't get an 11.6 or better. What do you guys think?

 

Those are still good numbers get the clutch problem fixed and I bet you will see more Mph.

 

Looking at your mods, I'd say that your mph is about right, especially with your raceweight and ET. I'm only trapping 123 running low 11's. You could stand to bring the 60s down to the 1.62 range though.

 

Your mph is pretty close. My car is about 100#'s heavier and I have similar hp and my best mph is 117.9.

 

Is it possible I have my MC adjusted TOO far out causing it to not fully engage?
