Just got home thanks all for the congrats I was, and am still very proud of what was accomplished that night and what respect it gives all of us Dmax guys to what the competition said could not be done ! Regardless of what time it really was , all i have to say is its not worth arguing over i will post what i know as of this point and am going back to Sac or Boise in a month to try to validate something .
Lets start by comparing the 2 runs with the same MPH
on the 10.50 i tried to heat my rear tires , according to Randy i never got the water off of my tires and the were covered in water , when i launched i blew through the tires in first and second gear , hit the rev limiter twice the truck defueled to 12mm3 both times , then the truck took off like a rocket to the tune of 10.5 @ 146 , in the log you can see each defuel event lasted .6 sec( if the log time is correct ) .
I then dropped tire pressure 6 psi at every corner , left 300 rpm harder and the truck hooked great and pulled way harder than it ever has , the only thing in the log that looks to have cost me ET was the 1-2 shift which only de-fueled to 83 mm3 this time as opposed to 12mm3 in the last run, and lasted .3 sec instead of .6 ( according to logs ) the rest of the run I had no other shifts that were "slow" and the truck generally felt perfect . so as you can see there was a substantial difference between the 2 runs and cant even be compared to each other , the only way to settle this is to get back out to a "Fast" track and try again ASAP butn the truck red lit in the first place from the converter surging , i could barly stage it was doing it clear through staging , thats the main reason i didnt beg for another run , so its needs to be sent to Precision and be checked out before i can go back out , but it felt fine when loading the truck up so ........ that is why it will take me a while , and have top get alot of paying stuff done first .
Once again Thanks every one , and thanks to all the guys in Calli for warm welcome , it's a great group of guys out there :hug:
