I was out at Numidia yesterday despite the forecast of rain. The day turned out to have good weather and all the racing and pulls were able to finish.

Anyway I ran my best time to date on my first run when the air was cooler and not so humid. It was 95 at the height of the day.

I need to get my 60' down and Im sure I could pick up another 10th or so. I launched at 15psi the one run and it spun pretty hard and killed the 60'. Still trying to dial in the sweet spot. All in all I am really pleased with how the truck ran for the most part. I still feel as the defueling between shifts is really hard but its all logged and I will see what Kory has to say...again

Was anyone else out there for the races?

We had a group out there. My friend Brant got 2nd in 12.0 in the Black LMM. It was hot as hell, but a really nice day overall. Congrats on the new best time. That track is pretty tough. DA is always high this time of year. Seems like they had it prepped pretty good.

Yeah I actually saw those two black trucks there they were by the staging lanes. That lmm rips for sure
it was a pretty good turnout I think. Hot but a good amount of people.
I wasn't able to get the bottle filled in time so I didn't spray. Nj is a ball buster about getting permits. But install was really straight forward and it all went together really nice.

Well I topped the 12.3 run with a 12.15@111 on Friday at island drag way.
I'm really happy with how it's running, it wasn't as humid as Numidia and the temp was about 20 degrees cooler so I'm sure that helped.
I still want to get my 60' down. It's around a 1.78 right now I see people doing 1.6's tho. How do you get down that low? I'm on 420s aired down to about 34psi.
Seems if I launch any harder than 15psi it starts to
Hop around. Any pointers?
I'll post a video of me dusting a new Dodge Challenger that night also. :thumb:

Nice!

Try lowering the air a few more psi. What shocks do you have?

Yeah I have my stock wheels with whopped 265s on them.

Damn really? I figured that would have been too low. I'll definitely drop the pressure. How much boost do you leave with. I'm sure our turbos aren't a good comparison but just asking. I'd love a 1.65 60'. That might put me in the 11's with a small shot.

I always push the pedal further down while waiting for the green light. I red light a lot cause it pushes through I've never really looked to see what it's at when I launch but I'd say somewhere between 10 to 15 psi...
