My quest for "the bar"....

[badingle]

I went to the track today. It was beautiful out so I figured why not.

Heres what she pulled:

1.77 60' not my best
8.11@ 83.62mph 1/8th

I havent changed a thing on the car since my first time out @ 13.10

Im coming for you Paul!!!

Why is the mph so low? Does the AODE suck up that much?

Nice...but with that mph, a 12.7 is about the best you can ever hope for. I'm assuming with the weight, gearing, suspension set-up, and power curve of the car...you've done about the best you can do.

Now...that being said...if you really focused on the suspension of the car for drag-racing and launched it hard, you could probably squeeze some more ET out of it. Of course, to keep going faster...you'll need to pick up some more power.

It will go 12.30's next year.Without getting crazy. I can promise you that.

There's more left in the sixty foot alone. Get some runs in before winter in this cold weather. I know I wish I could

We just figured out that I am getting about 19% converter slippage. Thats not gonna do it. I have a new chip on the way with a raised rev limiter so hopefully I can rev it out to 6200 and see how it likes it. Im gonna try to get to the track one more time this year. Why cant you?

This winter im going to get a power pipe, taller tires, TwEECer and a C4 with a break We shall see.

good numbers, I am still trying to get in the 12's n/a but am .10 from it with a best of 13.10 at 104 with a 1.6X 60'.

Car's put away and I'm away at school. I would LOVE to race in this cool weather though. Seems like all my friends back home are knocking off about .3-.5 from where they were at this summer.
