Went up to Cecil last night, took the PSD and a few other diesel buddies were there. I decided to do a few runs.
They just opened the gates as I was just pulling in, I pretty much got in line, ran a 15.721 at 90.55. I knew something was wrong when I looked at the MPH, I spun real bad netting a super slow 2.718 60 Foot. I spooled the turbo too much and launched a little too hard (2WD). I didn't run again until about 2 hours later when the sun finally set.
2nd Run: 2.214 60 Foot, 14.901 at 91.28 MPH
3rd Run: 2.278 60 Foot, 15.02 at 90.65 MPH
4th Run: 2.214 60 Foot, 14.964 at 90.28 MPH
I let the truck cool between runs. These were all 2WD launches just stalling the converter up a little, no boost and just rolling into it - except for the first run of course.
I also weighed my 01 in at 6960 lbs at the local truck stop afterwards. Major mods: DP Chip on 120 Race, BTS Valvebody, 4'' Turboback, Tymar (DIY) intake, I also unplugged the wastegate hose. I was going to try launching in 4x4 but since I was doing decently with just 2WD I stuck with that. I didn't do any burn outs either, Just lined right up on 285/75 Radials.
Lastly, here's a video. My buddy next to me actually ran a 15.967, this was my best run of the night (2nd).
