Track Times

[jpowel29]

Friday Night Test & Tune at Tulsa Raceway Park (weather was in the low 40s)

Run1-(mileage tune) = 12.64 @ 112.95mph
Run2-(mileage tune & harder launch) = 12.44 @ 113.67mph
Run3-(mild PW increase) = 12.27 @ 113.70mph

I was slowly ramping it up after each run but a bad exhaust leak ended my fun after the third pass. I knew I had a 90+ mile drive back to the house so I decided to pack it up so I would not have to walk back.

My 60' times are very soft (2.225 - 2.024). I have yet to get very aggressive with my burnouts and I did not want to test the cold track with a heavy boosted launch.

More to come. If I get the exhaust leak fixed in time I will make one more trip to the track before they shut down.

Congrats :rockon:

Are you running drag radials on the rear?

 

[jpowel29]

Thanks.

I am currently running M&H Nostalgia Slicks - 16 x 12. I will be testing some drag radials this spring so I can enter some True Street races that require a radial tire.

40 deg, 2wd, mileage tune, and 2+ 60ft. times running that quick...I'm impressed

Awesome times in a 2WD!!! That's 6mph faster than my 12.3 and 12.4 passes. It's cool to see more 2WD making great passes.

Thanks guys. Truck runs strong through the top end. I plan to hammer harder on the launches during my next trip to the track. I really want that first 11 sec time slip.

Definitely more left in this one... but she's creeping up.

Good work John,
