13.6 Baby

[laloosh]

ive been checking the weather and oct 3rd is suppose to be btwn 70-75 degrees. With humidity in th 50-60 range, so the conditions are exact to the last time i ran. hopefully we will see just how much a mbc does AS for shifting...try shifting earlier. its ok to shift at 6k 1-3 but 4-5 you only drop like 1000rpm so shifting earlier will benafit your trap and et

Sorry folks no amazing times this time. The track was slicker than a babies ass.
The track that i went 13.6 @ 103.1 with a best trap of 104.4 was to far away so i went to a different track. Last time i was at this track the car went 13.9 @ 99-100 the whole night. The 13.6 @ 103 runs, at the track i like, were done with no extra mods. Since then as you know i have added a MBC
Todays weather was 80 degrees with about 90 percent humidity. I only went 13.9 But at 104.7 mph. Yes yes i know the time sucks but the great part is that i bogged down each run, 1st gear was instant tire spin, i tried to easy off and it just lead to me bogging, hit 2nd wheel hop out the ass and i just drove through it, hit 3rd wheel hop for a good 2 seconds, CHIRPED 4TH. Who the **** chirps 4th at the track, i have never even chirped 4th on the street. Heres the kicker my 1/8th times was a bad 9.2 @ 79.xx, my 1/4 time was a 13.9 @ 104.xx....the car is picking up over 24mph in the back end. The mbc is a wonderful thing. With traction and without bogging im sure i can get 105+ traps out of this thing. My best 60 of the night was 2.27 which ended up being the 13.9 run. Once i go to the track i like i forsee easy 106-107 trap speeds. Neway sorry to disappoint lol

laloosh, what psi are you settting those front tires at? I had a good amount of traction with 23-24 psi (just at the point where the tire pressure monitors go off), but with a stock set of mounts and my less-then-ideal launching, I got major hop. The traction was there though.

 

[laloosh]

21-22 psi, its not me it was the track.

I might hit MIR this Sunday. A few guys from this area (some SRT and F body owners) are going up. If I can find time.

I got kinda pissed trying to work things out with the boost controller and boost gauge and sold them... wish I hadn't done that.

Will probably buy another one soon.
