What was your last best 60Today was a nightmare,lots of oil downs and interrupted schedule.Just got home but not before nearly having a tiff with one of the staff at the whole in the wall.....that's for SA members thread haha.All I was hoping for today was to 60ft better than the old std converter with same psi at launch,I managed that one.The other icing on the cake was the PB with the slipping trans,well more than last meeting.My tenth at the start never equated to the usal two tenths I get at the end due to lack of drive in 2-3 change.It takes 50 yards or so to change gear lol.With these things in mind and 350rwkw on pump I think I have done well,well enough to back up the number I make on the dyno.To run this number with a 45kmh/r head wind and 29* air....yeah I am happy lol.Things can only get better,with a built trans to hit shift points and E85 added(keep her at 350rwkw though)she will run a 10.I honestly think a low 1.5 is their with these things in the mix.She will be put back to daily/skid duties now as I don't want to blow the trans at the track,it's funny how she can handle 3rd gear skids no worries but not like the simple WOT runs.Shifting into 3rd with wheelspin goes in quite quick with no slip at all.Goran ran 11.2@123mph from memory with a 1.8 60ft.His first run was rather hectic but he steered well a kept hold of her......think he crossed centre line.He ran 102mph to half track.

Is it just stalling off from 1st or doing the stalling in 2nd then shift to 1st to take off. Also what tyres were you running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
