[paint94979]

made 7 passes... im not sure what i have to do to run an 11 second but its getting borderline ridiculous how hard it is

best pass was:

60' (wasn't working today usually 1.66-1.68)
330' - 5.031
1/8th - 7.786
1/8th MPH- 90.273
1000' - 10.148
1/4 - 12.150
1/4 MPH - 115.682

I know you're trying for an 11, but dang...a low 12 is still nice!

What have you done to the suspension to handle the power?

 

[x MadMAX DIESEL]

Maybe alittle drug, or an air to water intercooler may help you also

 

[IdahoRob]

MPH is surely there for a eleven second pass. I'd work on the truck prep for better 60' times. Your MPH is up where mine is running 11.7/8's

 

[RickDLance]

I agree with Rob.

 

[TrentNell]

Def loosing ET some were , the 60 ft doesn't seem to be the problem to me ,it could be better but @ that MPH a 1.68 should put you into the 11's , what RPM are you shifting at ?

 

[bigbird]

you're picking up 25+ mph on the back half which is strong. Got to be in the front half.

It's because you're not crossing your fingers. Or are you

Mph seem to be going up :thumb:

converter isnt locking up when its supposed to...

 

[SIKDMAX]

He has a brand new one... thatd be interesting.

 

[Dan@PPE]

The converter he is running locked for me.... but i have a copilot.

60's are in the 1.6x range

Nothing wrong with a 12.15 Nick. And I'll tell ya, I'm jealous that your even still able to race!! Our last track day was the first weekend in Oct IIRC.

115.8mph was my 11.80 pass at the same track. You need to figure out whats going on in the 1/8mi. The air was good, I thought you would nail it today. Send Rob the log, from his tune/pass. Hang in there it took me a year....

It's gotta be either something with the transmission (converter not locking like Ben said or some really drawn out shifts) or a bad 60'. Your MPH shows you have the power for an 11. Maybe your 60' times were off today, but you didn't know since it wasn't working?

Ya for some reason the 60' wasn't registering but track prep was good... The last time I was out at the track I ran 12.12 at 114 and 60's were good.. I have always thought it was a converter issue looks like I need to try a lockup controller now...

 

[paint94979]

I just find it hilarious that I ran a bunch of 12.3x at 108 passes then add over 100hp pick up 7! mph and pick up literally .2 I am losing lots of ET in the first 1/8 mile

 

[dmaxfireman]

i think an ally locker / co pilot will put you where you want to be!

 

[dmaxfireman]

also, how is your traction off the line? maybe a set of stickies will help?
