GRRRR :cuss: I wish you told me sooner. I was just up there today visiting Pete, getting a KB BAP thrown in the car and getting re-tuned. Oh well.

Next time you guys are planning to head to NED, let me know a tad sooner.

I was thinking of trying to get a bunch of folks to do a Track Rental.... How does that sound...

Let me know.
Thanks
David

Oh, and good luck tomorrow. :beer:

Exactly the same... Kinda funny if you think about it, I guess the car is pretty consistant. Put down 496/468, but now my A/F is nice and flat after 6k. Last time it started to really head north after 6k. Wanted to be sure I was safe, now I need to figure out what mod is next to get some more power. I'm thinking of going 2.93/4lb and see what that does for me.

Thanks

well it sucked bad tonight. Humid as all hell and the track prep was horrible as usual. my best 2 runs (if you can call them that) was a 12.6 @ 111, and a 12.4 @ 117. Makes no sense. I am up about 100 rwhp over last season, and am running slower!!! Best last year was 12.0 @ 118. I would figure even if my ET's were still crappy my trap speed would be up there. I think my clutch is done. The tranny is getting harder and harder to get in gear, essp. when hot. Dyno #'s in sig, what do you guys think?


oops, i forgot the sig only shows in first post

numbers are 587rwhp, 519 rwtq...............

It sounds like its going on you.....with that much power you should be trapping 120's

the thing the gets me is I really can't feel it slipping......every time I have ever felt a clutch slip in other cars its like it almost revs freely with no increase in speed......I don't know. I am kinda pissed right now though.

Maybe you are launching too hard and the car is spinning the wheels?
that much power might require a little less rpm at the staring line?
just a thought, Ken

The clutch is done, it's slipping on the big end. My car was the same, went from trapping 126-128 down to 117-120 you won't feel it slipping because your going over a 100 anyway.

:shrug: I'm sensing sarcasm, just can't figure out what it means... Please translate.

Are you saying I shouldn't have expected more power or don't bother adding a lower cuz I won't notice the difference?
