The truck ran its best yet today on a very hot and slick race track. The lock-up controller helped a bunch. I have not had time to look at any logs yet but the truck is a much stronger through the middle of the track now. Thanks to everyone who helped with the tuning tips. I still need a line lock and a way to use the Brake Torque mgmt to get me off the line with a boosted launch.
Here are the incrementals:
60' = 1.96sec (0-2 lbs of boost at launch)
330' = 5.09sec
1/8th ET = 7.62sec
1/8th MPH = 97.93mph
1000' ET = 9.79sec
1000' MPH = 111.888mph
1/4 ET = 11.52sec
1/4 MPH = 121.82mph
Track was very hot & greasy. No prep and we should have only been allowed to run 1000'. It was all I could to get safely stopped with hot brakes after hot lapping my truck (nearly ran it off the end once).
I did not dare try to spray. I think with a line lock & boosted launch I can get another 2-3 tenths. My truck cleared up a 2700us tune to a grey haze at about 60' so I think with a small jet I can get to the 10sec range.
Thanks again to everyone who has helped. Big thanks to Mike Bodine for the transmission work and words of advice.
