So..... new best weight 2850
Pulled a tire off the ground :D
Took care of "roll through light" problem

Found stall problem.

My Proyank 3200 stall was custom made for my mods at the time.... 3:23's.

Last season with 3:23's I could see 3000-3100 off the line.

I now have 4:10's (which is the ONLY change) and can only get to 2,600 MAX then the rear tires start spinning.

I've lost 400-500 rpm's off the line (stall speed) but have maintained N/A times.

My guess is..... I need a higher stall converter.

I will contact Yank tech line Monday and speak with them and see what they say.

sorry, but I have a hard time believing you pulled a tire off the ground with a 1.9 60

[TheGreenPunisher]

If he was gonna bullsh*t, he would have thought of something better than that.

I'm not trying to call BS but I just have a hard time believing a car that trapped 94mph can pull a wheel.

I've done many of those mods!

[12secondv6]

Also.... look at humidity.... ranged from 80-88!!

Higher humidity = slower car too!

[PlatinumWS6]

i was there, i saw the whole thing, he pulled the front left tire off the ground. we arent talking 3 feet off the ground but about an inch i would say. so it aint BS.

[Shirl]

My guess is..... I need a higher stall converter.

They're gonna say... "Show us the $$$$$!!" [img]tongue.gif[/img] The humidity was horrible... that was last night?? Today's a much nicer day.. Take that back... it WAS nicer in the morning/early afternoon..not anymore..

[shenanigans]

nice run...

as for lifting a tire, doesn't completely matter about power. I have seen cars that run like 16s, pull a wheel, oyu get technical, my dad's old 13.5 hp riding lawnmower would lift the front wheels when you popped the clutch.

Its about weight distribution/transfer, traction, and the "shock" of power off the line, not so much power.

Congrats on it...

as for you guys and your "race" for weight reduction its nutz

[1DangerousV6]

besides..from what i've read people would swear they saw light under your tire years ago..nice runs..i cant wait to see what times the new converter brings!

[BLLDOGG]

congrads but stop wasteing your time with N/A runs, spray that old cow!!! :D

[misterjuice]

Moooooo

[StudlyCamaro]

with a car that light im not suprised at all ... keith (magnus) used to pull a wheel off the ground when he had the V6 didn't he?
