Default New 1/4 personal best for me at SGMP/STS.

I was a little disappointed today. I loaded up the c-16 and the truck didn't want to run for **** on it. So I had to pull it back out and put a mix of 93 & 110 in the tank. I still came out with a 1/4 NPB at an 11.1 but it wasn't the 10 second slip I was gunning for. Oh well that's racing and I'm done crying for now.



YouTube - 11.1 @ SMGP

Same pass slightly different angle and better quality.

Thanks.

Because of the troubles with the C16 I wasn't able to even qualify for the shootout. That kinda upset me. I didn't even get to race any Chevy or Dodge trucks other than that 9.0 dial in white late 80's early 90's chevy blazer.

After you got the tank drained, I saw you click off a couple 11.2x @ 121. Glad to see it picked up a little more by the end of the day. That is still a great time. If I hadn't had issues of my own (belt slip), I really think we would have been a great race. Congrats on the new PB!

It sounds like you were like me just fighting issues all day. I really don't understand I had this thing running like a top the weekend before. I didnt expect the C16 to make that big of a difference in the tune. Oh well hopefully we can line em up next year.

So tuning was the base problem of your c16 issue?

Find someone that uses C16. I've heard it can be tricky to tune for it.

Chris, I really don't think you need to run c16 on your setup. I think some 110 would probably be just right and help with the tuning some.

Hell, I'm not even running c16 with the 88mm. I may consider it when I go to a BS3 but for now, good with 110-113.
