These are the first passes I've made in the car since July of last year. The temp this night was 55deg and elevation is a wonderful 2200ft
Passes were made on 275-50-15 BFG DR's. Combo is in sig..
1st pass
60ft----- 2.059
1/8 ----- 7.781
1/8mph-- 99.5
1/4------ 11.805
mph----- 124.2
The car bogged badly off the line on this pass and I managed to miss 3rd
2nd pass
60ft-----1.80
1/8----- 8.19
1/8mph--97.7
1/4----- 12.33
mph---- 123.0
Car hooked good on this pass, better than I expected and I missed 2nd this time
3rd and final pass
60ft----- 1.94
1/8------ 7.70
1/8mph-- 99.3
1/4------ 12.0
mph----- 122.9
Car hooked ok again, I caught every gear clean but something was wrong. From about 800-900 feet the car layed down. Boost dropped off to 5#'s through the traps. When I got back to the pits I found that the blower belt had tried to leave the premesis. Only 5 out of the 8 ribs remained and belt fragments were everywhere. Obviously thats why boost fell off during the second run and continued to drop after. I also noticed that with a 26in tall tire I'm going through the traps @ 6600-6700rpm. It sounds like it's pulling still, but I doubt I'm really making much power waay up there. I need to switch to a taller tire and maybe pull a little harder through the traps. As it stands I'm pretty happy with the way it ran. I need to work on the bad driver mod and tune some suspension issues. Not as fast as most other similar combo's but not bad for a little home built low budget motor.
