Default A little faster yet ;o)

So I made it out to the strip today for a few runs. Keep in mind, the physical altitude if this track is over 4800' and the DA was around 7000'. Typically I pick up about 6-7 tenths when I get down to sea level so would be in the mid 11's . This was with about 165-185 kPa or 10-13 psi of boost at sea level. Boost would get progressively higher with each gear. I think I need a stiffer wg spring to keep it consistent. Also have pretty bad traction issues with boosted launches off the line even with 4x4,

60' 1.77
330' 5.00
1/8 7.7722
1/8 mph 87.69
1/4 12.2147
1/4 mph 110.48

I was happy with that,

What, low 12's in a 5300lb slug aren't impressive any more??

What is this world coming too?

Wow congrats! I know I lost .4-.5 going to Phoenix last year. 4x4 launching is the ****, and getting the fronts squirelly is something awesome!

Come on down to our racetrack, like maybe this fall or spring?

Thanks Bill. I'd like to some time, I just need to sell a bunch more turbo kits to pay for it,

I'm looking for a new place to live permanently, but not sure I'd like living in Cali.

it's really nice here for a lot of reasons but it's way over priced. If I was looking I'd live in the Carson valley NV if I could find work. Again, congrats on the new best!
