Well? well? well?

 

Well a new PB. Rolled right off the road. Tech'd and made a pass with the 50 shot.
11.710 @ 113.00. A 1.64 60'.

Track was busy. 4 hours later and a swap to the 75 shot. Temp had dropped to about 45. Hopped bad out of the hole.
12.06 @ 113 with a 1.88 60'.

No doubt in my mind if I could have made a couple more passes and a little bit of tuning with the 75, it had an 11.5 or .4 in it. With just the cool down and the 50 shot 11.6's or a 11.5. Anyway, mission accomplished. Confirmed everything is okay performance wise. Amazed I went a new best with a stock 65e and drove it home.

 

congrat on a new best.

do you ever run run any times with out the nitrous? and are you still sporting the 5.3 or a 6.0

 

Congrates on the new best.

 

Thanks. I run more without the nitrous than with it usually. Just one goal last night test it and push it a bit. Sporting and 03 6.0L Lq4 now.

Thanks bro.

 

Ah Roger, congrats on the new best! Wheel hop? That 75 hits like a brick huh! What was your 60'?

 

Yeah it hopped hard out of the hole with the 75. Probably the first 20 or 30 ft then settled. Enough to screw the run up. I honestly couldn't FEEL a difference between the 50 and 75 shot. Ran the same MPH. It nosed down a bit at the 2-3 shift. Haven't looked at the logs but prolly went rich. I posted the 60's above.

I do see doing a 2-step or delay if I continue with the nitrous and 80E later. It won't take the full hit out of the hole.

 

my eyes suck...1.64 on the 50-shot :wow: is that your best 60' too? Wonder why you are getting so much hop?

 

Yeah holy **** on the 60' footer. WOW. Awesome run!!!

What size tires are you running? You running 4.10's?

I couldn't agree more on the 2 step.

 

Stiff suspension would be my guess. Doesn't do it in 2WD. Its' like it grabs, squats, breaks the front, grabs, squats, breaks front. A hard studder 4 or 5 times. Have you seen how pulling trucks will hop at the end of their runs sometimes.

Think a 1.62 is my best 60'


Thanks Dewey. Running 245/50/20 tires and 4.10's. If I could find some smaller wheels now that will fit over the brakes and a shorter DR all 4 corners would go a long way
