Went to the local 1/8 mile for the last time this season.
Made 12 runs, first 2 were terrible, spun thru the ENTIRE 60' lol. It was 50*, 47% humidity and -655 ft DA so traction became a problem for everyone. Lowered the tire pressure from 35 psi to 20 psi, very long burnouts and traction was much better.
Here is where it was 2 weeks ago: http://forum.camarov6.com/showthread.php?t=86187
This time it was dual staged. I hooked up the 50 dry shot just for the launch and armed the 50 wet shot after the 60'...worked like a champ. We also put 130# valve springs in it. The springs made a very noticeable difference too. Boost was set at 11 psi.
Best 4 runs:
60'...1.91 <--- Personal Best
330'...5.40
1/8...8.18
mph...88.08
60'...2.03 (spun)
330'...5.33
1/8...8.09
mph...88.56
60'...1.92
330'...5.29
1/8...8.05
mph...88.56
60'...1.92
330'...5.24
1/8...8.01 <---Personal Best
mph...88.76
On one of the slower runs I trapped 89 mph which was a PB too, but the rest of the run wasnt worth posting lol.
I was pretty pleased with the results. I wanted to hit 7.9x soooooo badly, but it just wouldnt happen. Im 100% confident that it will go 12's in the quarter, but I'll have to wait till that track opens in the spring :(
Viper has vids, I'll post them once he uploads them.
