Damn chads 240 was running!

yeah it sure was. I wonder if he was on the big pill or smaller ones. We are suppost to race at the cruise. Looks like I have my work cut out for me. lol

Nice runs James, your burnouts are looking better lol

Thanks for the runs, it was fun to be able to line up to someone, once you get the 60ft down your car will pick up.

Dan, I was on the small pills, I still had alot of pumpgas in the car left over from the poker run. After our 2nd run I went to get some racegas so I could pill it up but they had already closed.

Ya, from watching the videos it looks like the car doesn't really transfer weight very well, seems very flat out of the hole. Probably need to play with the shock settings and get more seat time. After going through my logs it looks like I was rich on all 3 passes yesterday (~10.5-10.7), going to lean that up a little at the cruise and see if I can get the 60's down enough to get me a 6.0 or 5.99. Seems like the MPH is there, the car just doesn't get cooking till after the 60' mark.

Just went through the logs. I was pretty rich (10.5-10.7 across the board), and the turbo spool times are killing me. Took just over 2 seconds of the 6 second run for me to hit full boost. I think a small shot of nitrous might be needed to get my car to move out of the hole.

You don't have a transbrake right?

Read my post from above!!

Nope, if/when this one goes I'll either pick up a built 4l80 w/brake (if I can find the dough) or a glide/th400 w/brake.

LOL, you are right. Need to get the suspension I have dialed in enough to hold what little power I do make at the line.

I tried over and over to tell you that turbo was not going to work like you thought it would.

Some of your spool time could be in the tune. Email me the logs.

Remember, soft springs don't transfer weight, they just let the body move around. You want the car to transfer weight then squat, not squat then transfer weight.
