Kills at the drag strip

[quinton]

Here are some of my kills at the drag strip. Couldn't get my launch down so my quickest time was a 13.37. It's a 12 second truck if I get er figured out. Lol. Did run a 8.31 at a 1/8th mile track but didn't have a helmet with me. YouTube:<br/><br/>http://youtu.be/Lj0YiqItYP0

I think your front end is lifting way too much. Maybe try chaining it.

nice runs,, did you weigh it?

 

[quinton]

Ya weighs 7100 with me in it. And ya all I had was tie rod sleeves and I'd spin my front tires, and It'd pull em in. I think it's the first race at night if you watch my front right tire it pulls wayyy in. Scared me so I got a straight centerlink on her now and pulled the torsion bolts all the way out.

 

[quinton]

And all those where in my big tune. I ran at 1/8th mile track few days later ( torsion bolts out lower tire pressure, still stock centerlink) and ran on my number 4 tune (150hp) and was getting 8.47-8.50 all day launching around 12psi. The 1/8th mile track is a well prepped track.

Which tire? When u do a 4x4 launch do u leave it 4x4 the whole way?

 

[07bluelbz]

What kind of 60ft.s are you getting Quinton?

 

[quinton]

Front right would spin most the time, but when it would hop they would both take turns spinning. And my 60ft was a 1.81 and ran a 13.51. At the 1/8th mile I got a 1.84 with a 8.31, which would be about a 12.98 or so in the quarter.

 

[quinton]

And I've done both, left it in 4x4 and switched back to two wheel drive after launch. Didn't seem to make a difference.

 

[07bluelbz]

Switching back to two wheel drive could cause damage and it wont unlock until you lift off the throttle anyway. I just got an all season brace and im hoping to improve my 60 ft.s.

 

[quinton]

I didn't think it unlock at WOT don't know For sure, but now I know not to switch it back. Lol. Ya I'm hoping this centerlink will help out a lot.

 

[Chevy1925]

DO NOT SWITCH TO 2WD DOWN THE TRACK, bad things will ensue if it does actually unlock

How do you chain the front end?

 

[quinton]

10 4. Got it. Thanks for the info! So ready to hit the track agian!!

 

[quinton]

Have to get longer bolts and go from your the top of the shock tower to the bottom.
