[baggedLB7]

Very nice first tnt of the season maybe I will stop by and check it out.

I want to record it but can't get any one to go with me to do I even offered to pay for them to get in if they would come record it. I took the tailgate off, spare tire out, back seat out, if no one is going with me passager seat is coming out, my bummber hitch is coming off and my goose neck hitch. Stoping by EPR on my way down to get something to help for the 12's :thumb:.

13.5 so far my 60 ft still suck 2.1 with tires ay 30 psi any ideas send me a text 8013913991

What was your MPH?

 

[TheBac]

Traction bars are not here yet. I do have spring claps was going to clamp front and back, Do I need to just clamp the front? I have rancho rs 9,000 shocks was planing on running them on 9 in the back and 6 up front. I was going to put the tires down to 30 psi. Any suggestions are welcome I need to prove my dodge friends that I can be in the 12s on a stock charger.

I found clamping just the front worked well, IF I left at 2000rpm. Any higher and the truck would hop. Try both to see what works best for your truck and situation. I ended up moving on to Caltracs.

Shocks are good choice. :thumb: But the fronts should be set stiffer, rears set softer. You want the front to rise in a "controlled" fashion, and the rear to "squat".

Tires, stagger your PSI. Higher in front than rear. I use a 6-8lbs differential (38/32 or 38/30) with my 275/70 Proxes and usually am in 1.65-1.70 range.

Im not an expert by any means, but I listened to other guys with far more experience: Idaho Rob, Pat, Mike Tomac, Mike Toman, Trent Nell, etc....and it made a huge difference in how my truck performed.

102 mph front is clamped ill mess with the shocks

 

[Harbin_22]

Mph sounds low. Is yoir convertor locking?

 

[Harbin_22]

Maybe log rail psi too.

 

[Evan@InglewoodTrans]

How hard are you leaving? How does the truck feel off the line? Work on getting your 60 down and make sure you log your runs for Trent.

 

[red1977]

Converter is locking i just keep spinning off the line

launch at lower boost then. you can run 13 flat at that mph all day long, maybe high 12s. I don't launch at but 12-13 psi

X2 or if you can control your foot, roll into the throttle, dont hammer down. Thats always worked best for me

 

[red1977]

13.2 with a 1.8 60ft was the best of the night.

how did the whole time slip read on that run?

 

[red1977]

R/t. 04
60 1.841
330 5.373
1/8 8.381
Mph 81.48
1000 11.012
1/4 13.251
Mph 100.51

 

[LWATSON]

I got my best results leaving at about 1700 rpms, I have a hard time leaving on a boost reading and staying consistant. Front tires 38 psi. rears 28 psi. pull the spare, hitch, tailgate, back seats, front passenger, seat. I droped 3 tenths off my 1/8th removing this stuff and it really doesn't take that long. I have a tool bag that has only the tools needed for removing these items and have a small 14 volt cordless impact to speed things up.

 

[JRODS*LB7]

Were running the 18's or your factory rims & tires? that will make a difference also .

 

[red1977]

It was on the 18s with 275's I need to find some tires for my stock rims but don't know witch tires I want to go with.
