I only got to run twice, and I didnt get what I expected. I ran a 12.4@109 with a 1.7 60'. Am I doing something wrong? It seems like the car should be faster. I was expecting closer to a 12.2. Oh I ran at HRP 2 weeks ago. ANy suggestions?

 

You should be in the 11s easy. Try to do a better burnout, or launch a little harder. As long as you get a low 1.7 to 1.6 60' you should be good.

 

he did get a 1.7, i say its altitude. ive hit a 12.3 at 110 without a cam/nitrous

 

somethings not right blue98ta....i ran two weeks aog a 12.3 cam only automatic..and you have a stall so you should well in the 11's

 

there is no altitude at hrp i ran this weekend at HRP and all i have is free mods exhaust NO headers and a 4000 stall and i ran 12.34 @110 on street tires with a 1.71 sixty.

plus his is a 98 car

 

I think you should be in the elevens I got a 12.3 with a 2.192 60 footer.street tires suck!!!

 

thats why you hsoulda borrowed my wheels with my drags cabesas

 

the waves practically crash at the entrance to HRP.

something's gotta be up dude.

 

Im gonna call chuck @hpe this week and ask him about it. Thanks for the suggestions guys.

 

if u come to hrp again gimme a shout. i'm living in baytown now.

 

Will do!

 

Nice runs Jason. Where have you been man?

 

hey raf school has been busy plus a new GF ill be out tuesday.

 

Nice time, get a set of Drag radials so you can hook better. Oh yeah youll see 11's

 

I have the et street dr's and I dead hooked. It seemed like on that run that once I got off the line that the car just wasnt aggresive. The shifts seemed slow and the car didnt seem to accelerate like it should have. The second run seemed better, but I spun the tires off the line. Anybody know what could have made the car not run up to its potential?

Get a bigger stall...

 

Thats what I was thinking, Bigger stall, I have buddy's with 4000 on their cars and they just haul. Mines a 6 speed. I make more HP but they have me on torque.

 

No my question was, with what is done to the car now, why am I not closer to the 11's?

 

Ok well what tire pressure are you at? That make some difference on tires, Also are you stalling the car? With that you sould be seeing high 11's with a good 60 ft 1.6's Just play with the tire pressure. Also you could do some weight reduction and with that set up you have currently, easy 11's.

 

It's because of your stall. It's not big enough. I bet with that cam, you start to make most of your power well above 3200....i.e. get a bigger stall
