So close...and yet so far...

[Little G]

Had another great night at Englishtown tonight. Heres the run down.

R/T .664
60' 1.893
330 5.771
1/8 8.965
MPH 76.77
1000 11.721
1/4 14.041
MPH 97.17

raceweight 3230 lbs
temp 51*
humidity 62%
baro 30.19

I guess I can attribute this to a number of factors including great weather, no headwind, and I got rid of a cute little thing called COT or cat overtemp protection. Basically GM thought a good way to protect the cat from melting was dump a lot of fuel when the engine is under load. Since my cat "fell off", I have no need for it.

Anyway, heading back to the track on friday and I hope to be back to post some 13s.

Damn boy just kicking *** all over the place aren't you...


Doesn't it suck being so close to a number you want and not quit making it, I am sure you will get it in a trip or two to the track.

I also found a nice two-step launch technique that I can adjust with HPTuners. Basically I set the rev limiter in Park/Neutral to whatever I want to launch at. As soon as the clutch is engaged it goes back to the in-gear rev limiter (6000rpm). So basically after I am staged, I put the gas pedal to the floor and leave it there until I cross the finish line. Everyone needs HPTuners!

oh snap theat bad *** now i dont have to buy one !!!!! i can sell my BTM [img]smile.gif[/img]

so if the clutch is down you can set the revlimiter to one and if it out you can set it another?

13s are there can't wait to see it!

I remember when 13s with nitrous or boost was an amazing feat! ;)

Great run you'll get your 13s very soon!

I use the same launch technique. It works great. What rpm are you using with the DRs and 4.10s? (is that a 12 bolt?)

I am using 3000 rpms with street tires and 3.42 and I get very consistent 2.1 60' times.

Damn Little G, thats a crazy launch! That rev limiter trick sounds sweet. Great job.
