I went back out yesterday on 10 April 2008, Thursday.
This is my time slip from last year ( My best one. )
R/T - 1.0979
60ft - 2.2261
330ft - 6.5049
et@594ft - 9.3641
1/8 et - 10.0021
1/8 mph - 70.52
1/4 et - 15.5349
1/4 mph - 89.63
I had to replace my clutch assembly over the winter ( over something stupid I don't even want to mention...the clutch assembly itself didn't even go out. ), and that's all the difference I really did. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to go shopping for a better than OEM clutch...but I made sure to get GM direct parts put back in at least. Yesterday, I launched at what I used to, just to see what happened...I burned out down the track until I shifted to fourth, it was mean...for a V6. lol.
It wasn't until about the 6th,7th, and 8th runs I started getting my launches down, and on my last run, I was happy enough for the time I parked her instead of pushing her farther. Here's the slip:
R/T - .7770
60ft - 2.2768
330ft - 6.4808
1/8 et - 9.9451
1/8 mph - 72.33
1/4 et - 15.4318
1/4 mph - 89.14
I broke into the 15.4's with one thing changed on my vehicle. The clutch assembly, replaced with a GM OEM part! woohoo!! now I better start modding...I'm actually going into overtime at work.
By the way...I want to break into the 14's AT LEAST by the time I ship out. I joined the United States Marine Corps, and I'm supposed to ship out to Parris by late October/early november. ( I'm hoping to be there before November 10th. =P ), I haven't been to MEPs yet though... :(
