Thanks man!!! I was not expecting to win, but things just kinda fell into place.
Thanks . I have so much editing to do, I might just give all my vids to Redmaro and let him edit them lol.
Here are all the numbers from the 9.20 pass
1.54 60ft
6.07@124 1/8th
9.20@155 1/4
And did your car have a cowl hood and bead locked rear wheels?
Your car is gorgeous man!!! It was great meeting you and a blast getting to race such an awesome car!! I had a list and your car was top 3 to run lol.

It went 9.91 on low boost then turned it up and broke lol coasting from 1/8 on it went 9.66 at 122 haha went 124 in the 1/8 no 2step or trans brake its just a stock bottom end lq9 with a gt88 were gonna get it fixed and make some more passes in kc but are track closed down so probably go to topeka or stl

How can you measure slip? And if it is slipping too much does that mean I need a tighter or looser converter?

With the info u gave me I got 11.82 percent of slippage.

Think of it this way, a well built converter may slip 4-5%, if yours slips 6-7% higher, you are baking the fluid, cooking the band, and compromising the clutches, and giving up mph and ET.

Also on the dyno when going from low boost to high boost, the dyno read a significant loss in MPH at redline in 3rd. It was like 140mph on low boost and 125mph on high boost.
