We are all good Payton. :cheers:
I've done the shock setting change. I've got lots of excuses so I'll just cut to the chase. I'm going faster this year. :lol: |

Ron, the only logical explanation is that LS7 is trying to get the hell out of a mustang at the stripe. :lol:

Has anybody noticed how all dragstrips give you timeslips on the worst paper with the worst ink? You can barely read them when they give them to you, and a year later you need a microscope.LOL Maybe I'm just getting old.
My 60' on my best pass was 1.775, and my 1/8 was 7.166. With the cam thats in this car, its a big end car, it really doesn't start pulling til about 5200rpm. The Roadrunner in the one vid is my buddy Mike, we ran each other 10 times that day. Everytime he hung with me all the way down the track until about 3/4 from the end, he swears I hit a nos button, but its just the cam, and short intake runners, kinda sucks for Autox though. Your car power wise has a 10 sec pass in it, its all about learning how to pedal it coming out. My first pass was a 13.4 spinning through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. My suggestion to you would be, to make it to the track when the weather looks bad, and nobody shows up, and take your time to learn what the car likes coming out. Hell I've got buddies running my 130mph in the 9s I know this car could never do that, there cars are lighter, and designed to carry the front wheels for 100 feet. This is what makes this stuff so fun, learning the cars and the set ups. My project this year is to get my Mustang set up to Autox, so I'm not in the top 10 or 12, but in the top 5 or 6. Its my goal for the year, its a time consuming process, I'll let you know if I learned anything. |
I've only been down the strip 6 times. It's definitely a delicate dance. I found this 60 foot calculator. http://wallaceracing.com/calc60ft.php
Based on our 60 foot times we should be running: Your best: 1.775=12.75ET My best: 1.905=13.6ET If I can get down in your range 60 foot wise, I should be in the low 11's. It's never been my cars strong suit. I know I can nail a better launch as a driver but I have some inherit car drawbacks. I have over 600 ft lbs of torque at 3500 rpm, a 2.87 first gear, and 3.73 gear. :lol: I really could benefit from a taller first gear in every venue. Your mph is out of this world. I was looking at the drag schedule and I think I'll go back out there in April for midnight mayhem and work on my goals of making a good pass. |
