3750 was the formula with m6
this car weighed 3870 at the same track last trip i made there, i am certain it was within20# of that this weekend.
i am interested in seeing how it does as raced then on the dyno. i have to figure with the auto its not quite over 1krw, maybe 950. i can't see how it would gain rwhp from switching to auto. the last time this set up was dynoed was when it was in the formula and did 995 and actually i think the tune is only more conservative now. but you never know.

i wonder though if the 17's would affect MPH more and dropping et?
still thats hauling for a street car with 17's

having the 17 will only hurt the 60 foot, its only 25.6 inches high so it won't hurt it down the track, especially after the 1/8..
so MM, all really that changed was the converter from a 3000 to a 3400? Did you raise the 2 step way up and just go for it? Front sway disconnected? Running a trans brake?
My best on a 17 was a 1.60, I'm sure I would have gotten into the 1.5's but no where near a 1.4 or 1.3.
Guess the track was hooking, good job.

yes i was using the trans brake
no i do not use a 2 step on the car
no i do not have a front swaybar, but i do have the front qa1's set up tight to make up for it and did not adjust them, they are on 10 or 11 i think
yes it was the best track prep i have been to all year, considering i normally run at friday street events.

my best non t brake launch is a 1.57 so i would say the brake gave me over .2 on ET on that particular pass and woulda been more on the 1.38 pass.
i have a 3.5" electric cutout that was open. the wastegate is the loudest part of the car since it dumps out. my best pass through the stainless works cat back is a 9.72 but not on as good of a 60' or as high of boost as these runs
150mph is my a/c and it was blowing good!

I notice you don't have a 'chute on that missle. Any problems haulin' that thing down before the turn around? I bet those rotors are glowing red!
Congrats on the latest ET/MPH. I wish you had a video of the pass. I saw that earlier video where the '88 seemingly found boost about 80 feet out then you just murdered the car in the next lane.

slicks and skinnies sounds like a race car thing to me.

you said it so it is true to me.
