Default Finally Drag raced the TT TA once again

Ran good, need to ramp it in way faster for a nice track like this, I have the boost coming in lazy to run on slippery surfaces that I am usually running on!

ran good but broke driveshaft going for 8s... we think that's all it was, we will have to diagnose in the coming weeks.

Setup is old as *****, nothing has been changed motor wise since 2006/7!

LSX 427 and twin 76s. Its so old it looks old , makes me want to change it.

But can't beat not ever having to work on it, nothing but oil and plug changes, it keeps chugging along at 30 lbs of boost LOL!

That mph is just retarded Tiago. That 60' time is snail speed, but the mph is enough for a 8 second time slip. Congrats man.

Needing to bring it in faster is an under statement. Looks like it rolled out tho!

That was all in already, other than adjusting ramp up rates, which I didn't get a chance to do. The next pass was later in the day as the weather warmed up, so it went slower 9.6 at 159 or so, with a worse 60 and 1/8. The tires are a year old, I think they were starting to give up the ghost as the car was tire shaking violently on that second run. I tried to spray it on the brake to get out harder on the third run but some how the car lost IAT sensor when I launched and it just sputtered around and I aborted the run. Decided to call it a day after that.

What controller are you running Tiago? How much boost are you able to leave on? Foot brake or trans brake?
