More mods.....slower times
Last time I raced I was running a 16.6 pretty consistent. Last night I went and ran with the Nelson tune and first was a 16.7, then a 16.8. My best was a 16.69 with slower mph. I know my truck has gotten faster with the tune but I think it was traction problems. 3.42's with no posi and my back right tire just spins. I guess I need to work on hooking up now instead of getting more power. I'm going to san angelo tonight to try their track out and see what numbers I can come up with. And by any means i'm not talking bad about the tune just my traction.

they were about 2.5 something and my fastest was 2.49. It is kinda the same 60ft as before. I have over 1000 miles on the tune. Maybe because it was kinda warm outside. But I was struggling just to try and run a 16.6. I'm gonna but my front tires on the back because they have better tread and see what I can do tonight if the weather is good.

About 84mph. It used to be 85mph. But I didn't give my truck a chance to rest. I drove to the track about 20 miles away and I always keep my foot on the pedal so maybe I should have gave it a chance to cool down. I ran it about 6 or 7 times. I rev it about 900rpms when i take off. Don't know what is wrong?

what were the temps before the tune. if it was cold before the tune you will balance out in hot weather when you ran your best time before. if that makes sense?
