Default New PB in the TBSS
Ran and won the Truck Shootout at my local track last night.

1600ish DA, ran two 13.7's with 2.09 and 2.11 60 foots. Trapped 99 and 100mph. Intake, Cat-back, and a base tune. I need to dial in the tune and get a 'verter and hopefully see low low 13's!

Very nice sir!!! I bet once this cold weather starts coming in and you dial in that tune, you will do much better. Now where are those vids? LOL

A few weeks ago, I have a bad tune (non compatible for my 17s, only thing new), it should be lower. Everything is the same, just dirtier. Also better track.

Looks like you got a good 60 foot. I trapped 103 with a 2.0x when I ran 13.5 in the Impala. You get her painted too?

We get some negative to zero air once in a while. I'll definitely be out then.

I was still spinning the 1.9, lol. I'm shifting into 3 at around 94 (with the 17s, 5900-6000 RPMS) and it is KILLING me, I need to raise the shifts a smidge. The first thing I'm getting done when I get my stuff paid off is getting a real paint job.

Thanks. Especially heavy being that it was 100% full weight.

Mine is shifting early also, 5900rpms vs. 6400rpms. That'll get fixed when I retune and remove cats. That truck in that vid is on the TBSS forums. Damn quick truck. I'll get my 'verter first, then long tubes, then maaaaaybe a cam. That's long down the road!
