Got a chance to make a few runs this morning at a private track event. Only was able to stay for about an hour as I had a family event to go to and I couldn't miss it. Still managed to get 5 runs in.
This was my first trip to the track with the new mods (intake, 2.5", tune, and DR's) and the results were what I expected. Need more practice launching this car
Here's how they went.
***all runs were within 5 minutes of each other, approximately 20 minutes after arriving at the track***
Run 60' 1/8 MPH ET MPH
1. 2.39 8.68 91.50 12.87 118.82 35psi-3500rpm/bogged bad
2. 2.29 8.60 92.67 12.75 119.68 35psi-4000rpm/bogged/grind 2nd
3. 2.07 8.43 90.97 12.64 118.31 30psi-4300rpm/less bog/grind 2nd
4. 1.90 8.30 89.23 12.54 117.83 28psi-4600rpm/less bog/grind 2nd
5. 1.93 8.07 92.57 12.23 119.53 28psi-5000rpm/no bog/granny shifted all shifts so I could have a clean run..
Think I could have gotten her down into the 11's today with some more RPM off the line and maybe a little cool down between runs. Car definitely has the power for it.
Won't come back to the track till I get an MGW or Barton installed. If I could bang that 1-2 shift like I want to, I know there are a few more tenths left in the car.
On another note, i'm guessing that the little variation in trap speeds, with little to no cool down times, is attributed to the fact that my car is already heat soaked from the 75 minutes drive at 85mph to the track :burnout: I'm guessing a couple more MPH could be found if I let it cool down after getting there (or just get a new HE/Radiator).
