I'm going for broke, gonna turn it up to 20psi w/race gas. Pretty sure the tune is safe for that. I just don't know about the rear. ![]()

Sorry Don.. I am a bad influence! I am just glad I didnt make that pass in your car. I would have felt very bad. I still think the big factor was not loading your driveline. I started a thread in the club forum (drag section) discussing this very thing. I had a long discussion with Ari a month or so ago on this. Ari agreed that most of the issues or wrong combos and not loading it before the launch. You know I am 99% sure Noah is still on oem diff and he was pulling the front wheels. But his is an auto and on transbrake so he has load before he launches also. But that goes to show that the shock to the driveline is a huge factor. Obviously running upgraded axels, kaz lsd or cobra 8.8 irs sloves the problem but that may just be a blanket for the real problem...
Either way you fianlly made a 7's pass so that must feel good. You know you were out running the 2 Z06's and the super charged (550rwhp) GTO that were there that day! The white single turbo supra didnt go much quicker either (7.6). So imagine what your car would do on race gas and a 1.5 60 footer??? I am guessing a low 7 say (7.3-7.4)! |

It's cool Mike. I really wanted to see what my car had but was too afraid of breaking something. I just needed that push to just do it. Now I know my car has more in it and the only way to extract it is to push it. Yeah, I broke, but that only makes way for improvements. To be honest, I was pretty bummed after Montgomery and the other T&T days we went to only to not post better times than before.
Was just looking at Steve's timeslip above, and our times are nearly identical. I wonder if my 1/4 times would be similar as well? |

yeah, would be pretty close within .1 or so I think. You have a 11 in your car as it sits on pump map/gas.
