cut a 1.51 last night
went to local track bout an hour from my place. it was about 84* out, relative humidity was 22 and the DA was 5600.
i was running on my nitto 555R drag radials. at first the track was pretty good, best its been in long time. but it didnt last long at all.
first pass was my best.
ran a 13.2 @ 86, i cut a 1.51 60'
R/T .811
60' 1.512
330 5.313
1/8 8.185
mph 85.96
1000 10.758
1/4 13.24
it was before or right at the 1/8 where i had to let out, due to fuel pressure.
my 60' was bad *** and then a lil after the 60' mark i spun. then my ful pressure dropped at the top of 2nd, which it went lean and didnt shift to 3rd and hit rev limiter. i let off at that point and coasted the rest of the way.
i was happy with the 60'
i need a second fuel pump ,my aero 340 isnt cutting it by itself. so i have a walbro 255 thanks to andy, that i will be adding.
the rest of the night was crap, the track went to
and all i did was spin till after half track. my best mph for the night was 113 and that was still spinning my *** off, playing the peddling game.
ill have a couple videos up in a lil bit, computer is taking forever to download them.
i will have a second pump in, in just a few days. and ill be going out again with my slicks, when i get them back from cali.

The jump from 2.0- 1.8 felt amazing, can't imagine how insane 1.5-1.6 would be. For me leaving the line is 90% of the fun of running down the strip!
P.S. Does anyone know what top fuel 60' times are event alcohol. I found .8 on a few sources.

Set up isn't crazy at all.
Stock bottom end 5.3, prc 5.3 stg2.5 heads, isky triple 12 cam, stock tband intake, 75#injectors. S475 turbo, 4l80e, PY3600, 4.10's.
AM340 single intank, AM fuel regulator. Fuel pressure falls off up top.
I was running Nitto 555R drag radials.
I have 3/5 drop, stock shocks all 4 corners.
Assassin traction bars.

awesome on the 1.5 60ft! its hard to get these pigs moving!
top fuel is about .9 .95 they arent all the much faster to 60ft then the door cars like pro stock and pro mods are right about there.
