Red face Well I didn't run any faster time, but picked up mph today

Last week, I was having horrible fuel probs, had to let out early, pulling only 1.8 60's, went 12.3's @ 111. So after getting my prob fixed I figured I hit the track 1 more time before they close up for the year. I went ruffly the same elapsed time, but picked up almost 3 mph. I have a lil suspension work to do. The truck breaks loose same spot everytime, regardless of my psi in the tires, or rpm launch.. Here was the best today.. Mind that I am only boosting 5-6 psi now after a pulley sway, it is slipping more, also a pretty conservative tune.. Mph is good for 11's now to get the first 660 down


1.86 60 ft
7.99 1/8 @88
12.32 @ 113.18

So when are you going to use the bottle? a little 50 shot at the 1/8th mile would help haha

Yes, I agree the trap speed is good for 11.7-11.8 but you are makin it all up on the second half of the 1/4. Get that 60' down and it will all come together!

It is done right for sure, I am looking into a softer shock for the rear, may play with the bars a lil.. I really think its the rear shocks... Well see again here soon.. Timing in the tune is locked at like 15 up top, so there is alot left in it right there.. And i have to fix me belt slip..

Breeze- you know what happens when the slicks are worn out and driving on them to the track
I think he got them used,I could be wrong.

Might be bottoming out and losing traction on the rebound or suspension is too tight and not letting it get all the weight transfer possible. I'd like to just go to the track to watch everyone one time.
