I went to Sacramento Raceway last night and ran a new best. Last time there I only had the Superchips using the 87 tune and my home made ram-air setup, stock intake and exhaust. That night I ran a best of 14.98 @ 90.62 mph, the temp was 57*. Tonight I ran a best of 14.76 @ 91.59 mph and the temp was 58*. Tonight I was using the Superchips 91 tune, ram-air and have added a CAI which is an Airaid MIT and AFE drop in filter, and I also added a Dynomax muffler using the stock tailpipe. I'm very pleased with my times, pretty good for a quad cab with only a tuner, intake and exhaust for mods. I also saw a supercharged 300 SRT-8, it was running 12.4-12.8. The owner was saying the PCM was pulling timing on 91 oct gas, he needed race gas. Sweet looking and sounding car! Saw a Gen 2 Cummins Ram 2500 4x4 run a 13.3 and a Porsche Turbo Carrea run an 11.8. There were also A LOT of ricers, they out numbered the V8 crowd about 3 to 1. It wasn't crowded because it had rained but the track was dry and I got four runs in the first hour (14.78, 14.82 & 14.85) so I came home, didn't care about the bracket racing. Overall, I'm pleased!!

very cool Jim!

I was suprised they were open. I was still in Vegas until late last night so i couldnt have made it anyway but sounds like you got your moneys worth and got home early enough to keep the wife happy

 

Thanks, Justin!

Exactly on both counts. I saw what I wanted in the first four runs and didn't think I would get any faster so I saw no need to keep going. The wife was happy when I called and said I was coming home, got home at 7:30 instead of 10:30. That made her happy.

yeah, but now she will expect it everytime.....

 

Great times for such little mods. And they say Quad Cabs are slow, lol. Any mods your thinking about next?

 

I want to get an LSD rear so I can launch more aggressivly but I will say the track hooked up very well, I launched harder on each run and never spun. Last time I was there I had to baby it so bad or I would smoke the crap out of my tire. I had a 2.19 60' which isn't that bad considering I have a peg leg rearend. When I do the LSD rear, I may do 4.56 gears at the same time. I want to put in a Viper electric fan. Not sure what else, maybe some headers too.

When I left California, they had started referring to Wednesday nights as "Rice Nights" because that's all that shows up - slow buzz bombs.

The fast cars are there for the Friday night grudge nights.

 

You got that right!
