New PB at Orlando Speed World today

[BlueSmokem5.0]

Well finally cooled off just a bit here in Florida to go out and make some passes with everybody in Florida today LOL. Air wasn't as great as I had hoped for and still struggling to get this new set up to fly, but it did go 10.47 @ 132.32 mph w/ 1.57, 60 ft and went 10.50 @ 133.47 mph w/ 1.56, 60ft. In March with great air I went 10.57 @ 128 mph w/1.44 60ft on a 125 shot and now so far my best is 10.47 ? I sure hoped with the new engine , MS103 race fuel and a 200 shot I would see low 10's !! Not sure what to think??? Data logged every pass and things looked good. Any thoughts on why I'm barely faster ET but mph is up 4-5 ?

Wind difference? What was the DA in March vs now? Have you dynod both setups, what is the power difference? You picked up 4-5mph so its definitely making more power.

 

[BlueSmokem5.0]

It made 515RWHP with the 125shot and now with the 200 shot it made 577RWHP but air was around 1300-1400 today, in March
it was 800-900. wind was from behind on both times.

The faster you get the more power it will take to push another tenth. You lost over a tenth off your 60'... that's good for 2 tenths in the 1/4 mile. Figure out why that is(traction problems?) and get your 60' back down to 1.44 and you will be 10.1-10.2.

Was defiantly too aggressive with the progressive controller, need to ramp it in a little slower.

 

[JUIC3D]

I think you're right in line with the power the car is making. I went consistent 10.3@131-133 on a 150 shot making 580whp in +1000DA. Stock coyote engine, boss intake manifold, NX plate kit, and longtubes/dumps, stick shift.

Yesterday was a great track day. Good weather and huge turn out. It was good meeting you. Once you get your 60' back your ET will be on target. I know my 60' needs A LOT of work. . . .

 

[BlueSmokem5.0]

Good meeting you also, did your times improve with the drag radials on that last pass?

[SteveG@Lethal]

Glad to see it coming together man!

 

[HONDASAKI]

No, think the track was getting hot. Brought it up on the tbrake was holding just about 4lbs of boost, let go of the button, The car pulled harder than ever for a second then spun. Best pass of the day was 10.2@140 with a 1.67 60'

 

[Need4Speed03]

Congrats man! Wait till you put the big boy solinoids on and get the 60ft dialed in...I think you will pick up a bunch! I don't think the NX standard plates flow that well above 150...I mean I think the orfice is only .063. That high flow kit you have on the way will be a big improvement!

 

[SignalZero]

Good to meet both of y'all yesterday. Cars were flyin!! Here's two pics for your viewing pleasure...

Already researching auto's... Lol

OP are you leaving on the spray?

 

[BlueSmokem5.0]

I have a progressive controller and I leave with about 50% and ramp it in. But I think I need to lower it down because I can't get the car to leave without spinning.

You likely need to add some anti-squat.

What LCA Brackets do you have?

Do you have an UCA Mount? Does it have multiple positions? If so, what position are you using?

What settings are you using on the Vikings?

 

[toomnymods]

Do you have after market headers? You might benefit from some kooks or ARH long tubes..

 

[BlueSmokem5.0]

I have non adjustable LCA's, with steeda LCA brackets with multiple holes for adjustability, currently set on the top set of holes slightly running down towards the rear. I don't have an UCA bracket just the steeda adjustable UCA?? Also the Vikings are set at 0 comp and 3 rebound? Any advice would be great. I took video of the tire and it seems to be separating from the car trying to plant the rear tires but yesterday day it felt like it was shaking the tires hard off the line?? Tried 15-17 psi tire pressure with Hoosier DRs
