First time at the 1/4 mile

[2005LLY]

Ran a 11.97 @ 119.x mph with a shitty 60ft it 1.93, any tips for better 60s? Running 20s and 420s. Truck was weighing in at 7200 lbs and is a CC/SB.

Did you pay much attention to how much boost you left at? And how did it feel? If it launched fairly straight and smooth just keep adding boost until it spins or hops.

Pretty fast for a heavy truck

Shit it took me several years and lots on trial and error to go 11's congrats

This too!! 11s on your first trip to the track is no joke. Better 60 ft and you'd probably be looking at 11.60s!

Going strictly by math if he pulled a 1.73 60' he could be very close to 11.50's. I miss drag racing

Nicely done. :thumb: Sorry if I missed it, but what all is done to the truck and drivetrain?

Left straight as an arrow, no wheel hop, it's got full built motor, trans, lockers, billet axles, 100% exergy injectors and 12mm exergy cp3. It is normally a 2.5 pullin truck, so all I did was put a 3" precision turbo on instead of my 2.5 precision and went to the track lol. I'm going to shed about 400lbs off the truck, and try to get my 60ft down. My tires had about 50 psi in them still so I know I can go lower and help with the launch.


Thanks for all the kind words!

You remind me a lot of my friend Mike Moore. His pulling truck also ran 11s without much effort, and he just kept getting faster as he got more into drag racing.

 

[paint94979]

MoorePower right?

 

[TheBac]

Yep.

I'm going to get a tune made that'll max out my 12mm cp3 and put the bottle too it see how fast I can go before I gotta park it for winter lol
