Default New best 1/8 mile

Went to the track last night to test converter and came out with new best on a shitty track night. Had to wait 2 hrs due to dust storm and little rain but at the end of the night ran a 6.81 @ 104.6 w 1.61 60ft. That was on a 5 psi launch spinning and 14.5 psi down the track. I tried later to do an 8 psi launch and raise shift points so it wouldn't go into third but almost hit the wall. have a cell phone vid but youtube not uploading right now. will post later. Improvements with tighter converter was .2 and 4 mph. Still lots of work ahead.

Truck looks good ! Even better that converter is picking you up a few even when your so soft at the start... You need to leave the truck with me a few days and come back to running 110+ at half track ! i know it has it in there .... i am sure a little more rpm and better .60 foots you will get there pretty fast

Had to watch it again, was that a 2nd or 3rd gear burnout?
