Going back to the track again tonight now that I got the valve stems replace in my smaller wheels. Its going to be about 10-15* warmer tonight then last time, but Im hoping to pull off a 9.8-9.7 and 72mph on the smaller wheels/tires!

 

What size tires you goin from and to?

 

You 'ought to try some bracket racing. It'd be pretty damn cool to win money to fix up your truck by racing you truck

 

Went from 285/50-20 (~31.5")
To 265/60-18 (~30.5")

Yea I've been running that idea through my mind lately. If the season wasn't almost over here, I think Id try it a few times.


As for how tonight went, disappointed. Temps were around 75* most the night, pressure was around 30.10in/hg, and humidty was at a horrible 75% for a DA of around 1230ft. All 3 runs I made (got there late) were 10.1x at 70.xxmph on my shorter wheels/tires. Which pretty much tied my PB on this setup. Although my MPH was better tonight then previously. So if I can, I'll try one more time, if it's cool enough. If not then next time I try will be after I get my shift kit/cooler/servos installed and tuned for. Which im hoping those mods will get me a couple tenths and put me around 9.6-9.5.

 

Ran the 1/4mi at Mason-Dixon Dragway today. Came out with a new PB 1/8mi ET and MPH on the same pass.

Track is at 550' above sea level. Weather at time of run was 65*, 30in/hg, and 50% humidity for a DA of 1,100ft.


Here is a picture of my slip (ran a total of 5 times).




I MAY take it to the track one more time BEFORE I get my trans work done. I really want to see what it'll do before the trans stuff on my shorter tires with a better DA of like 200-500ft. This 1,000ft+ DA is killing me!

 

Well ran again lastnight just cause it was cold. DAs were between 200 and -400 if I remember right. It went from 60* to almost 45* in 3 hrs

6 runs total, ran 9.91 twice, 9.88 twice...

And then these two were my best all around. Best Ive had so far in 60', ET, and MPH.



Getting the hd2 and both servos installed at the end of the month and will have a retune from Justin. Also going to put in the 40k at somepoint soon as well.

 

Stock 5.3? That's dang good time! Reaction also! With the 4.8 I could not best 11.30 in 1/8 with a RCSB

 

Yup, completely stock 171k mile 5.3

 

Congrats man! That truck just keeps getting faster & faster!

 

Congrats on the newest pb. Got that with just tire new tires and the great air that's pretty sweet. The airs got crazy good in the region here the last few days. Last night at 6pm we were 2ft da and 57 deg never found out what it was later on but i bet it was negitive. I was going to go last night to get my 14sec pass but didn't finish getting the headers on yesterday
