Default I had a little fun at Cecil Saturday and a new personal best

Well I went to Cecil this past Saturday for a test and tune and little grudge race some local guys were doing. I haven't had the car out since going to LS Fest 6 weeks ago. temp was in the low 60's all day and the track prep was great

Well first pass off the trailer yielded a new personal best.

3400rpm and 9psi on the trans brake 17ish psi down track

60' 1.350
330' 3.651
1/8 5.623
mph 123.78
1000' 7.333
1/4 8.781
mph 155.49

I was happy to click off a new best on the first pass of the day so now it was time to turn things up

2nd pass I turned the 2step up to 3500 rpm and 10psi on the launch 18 psi down track



60' 1.485
330' 3.920
1/8 5.936
mph 122.59
1000' 7.660
1/4 9.117
mph 154.74

Well that resulted in a nice bumper dragging wheelie



Well after that I decided to tighten up my travel limiters and try it again with the same settings on the trans brake. And I was very happy with the results

60' 1.304 WOW new best
330' 3.612
1/8 5.558
mph 125.81
1000' 7.249
1/4 8.687
mph 156.43

Sorry part of the video is part crappy cell phone video. There are videos of the my wheelie on facebook that I don't know how to post on here, Feel free to friend me if you want

I am probably gonna try and make it out at least 1 more time this year and maybe better that pass.

It is addicting I just love how docile this car is when turned down and cruising and how nasty it gets just turning on my boost controller

Nah. This was the 3rd time I have had the car come up on me. Granted that was the highest it ever came up. I am starting to get used to it coming up cause that time I stayed in it and didn't let out like times before
