14.97 at 77 something doesn't seem right here.

I'm sure he meant 97mph. My friends 7,000 pound 80s F-350 with a huge ass lift kit traps 77mph.

Im sure he meant 87, 97 is good for high 13's, low 14's.

That is odd. Did you let up too soon?

whats strange is you only gained 4mph from the 1/8 to the 1/4? maybe a typo(printing error or something) unless you let up to soon? but it doesn't matter...as soon as you install the p&p pi heads and vt cams you'll be good!!! what cams are you going with? and what intake? pi ? I'm about to make the same swap, just waiting for vt to get some stage 1n/a in stock....

Hmm thats strange. I figured he just let up....alot....but it is a NPI and that would be a decent time for romping on it down the whole track.

Unless you hit your brakes HARD right before the line I don't see how that is possible. How can you hit 73 mph at the 1/8 but only 77 at the 1/4? So you only accelerated 4 mph in an eighth of a mile?

It had to be a system error by the track.

Computer typo maybe? Because your first run you were at 95 mph for your 15.025. Sounds like you were at 97 mph instead of 77 mph for your 14.927

With about the same 60' time and a little quicker 1/8th time, but you were going 18 MPH slower by the time you hit the 1/4 mile? Did you drag the brakes thru the trap (the 66' prior to the actual finish line)? Still, the time didn't suffer, so I'm confused regardless. I would have compained to the track officials...something ain't right here.

Something is wrong, but computers don't make typos. Sorry, don't mean to get picky here, but as a computer geek by day, I often hear people talk about their computer doing something wrong, which is rarely the case. Most often, it's garbage in, garbage out or an IO error (incompetent operator)...
