Dave, did you run? What kind of times?

So far I have made two runs. The first was 13.2 @115

the second was worse 14.2@ 105 I am still figuring it out. The secnd run I had a boost leak and was runnig only 12psi. I also bogged at the launch. The first time I went out I spun the tires through my first two gears. Next time I am gonna try to slip the clutch out some. I have been practicing around my house and i think i am better off with this slipping clutch approach. I am running on Nitto drag radials with 15psi in the rears. I belive that if i can get my ass in gear the car will run an 11. Now I won't even try to pretend that means its gonna happen. I hope to get 11's before I take these 99 twins off the car. We shall see

I think I am heading to midnight madness this coming Friday night if your interested. Gates open at 6:30. If you get there right away you can get in a few runs before the start the elliminations.

You know how to do a standing burnout right?



If you are doing this and you still cant get the car to stay put, install a linelock. It will cost +/- 110 and is easy to do.



Dave, it's addicting aint it! I cant wait to get my https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif on https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Oh and Kevin, Race gas doesent really add any horespower alone. You could have turned up the boost more with the race gas though.

yeah, with race gas i turned it up to 1.4 bar. when i try to do a burnout i dump the clutch at around 6k and the rear starts sliding around. i might have to do a linelock so i can just sit in oneplace instead of moving all over the place. who wants to help me put one in https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png kvn
