Well guys, Alaska Raceway Park had a test n tune tonight, and since I just got the transmission back in, and finished my 2-bar SD tune, I got to try out my intercooler tank. I made 3 passes. First pass with no ice, 2nd pass with 3 frozen water bottles in the tank, and the 3rd pass with 4 of 'em in the tank.

Previous PB was 14.3291 @ 91.27 with the stock Magnacharger intercooler setup. Can't get the scanner to work well tonight, and I left my memory card adapter at the shop. So I will post the timeslips and videos tomorrow.

13.1588 @ 98.25

More info tomorrow!!

good pickup. possibly 12s in the near future?

 

Yes, I think it should be do-able. Weight reduction and a little more tweaking in the tune will get me there. Here's the timeslips from last night.


Vid of the first race, against an S10 bracket racer. I ran 13.4


Vid of the second race, against a Dodge truck. I ran 13.1


Third race was against a Cobra(I think had N2O) that I should've lost. But when I got the jump on him, he got too aggressive & smoked the tires.
I don't think he wanted to lose to a truck.

 

Congrats man! nice runs, That radix whine sounds sooo cool !

Lose the cap man!!! you'll be in the 12,s

 

Whats with the old man camper?

 

Cuz I'm an old man.

Pretty sure the guy in the Cobra was pissed, haha!!

I ran the truck at full weight, the exact same setup as every day driving. Even has the toolbox in the bed full of crap. I just wanted to see what it could do. It's not a race-truck, it's my DD/tow vehicle.

Next time to the track will involve some weight reduction: Leer, toolbox & contents, tailgate, subwoofers/amps, back seat, etc. Even thinking about dropping the hitch & skidplates, but not sure if I'll actually be that ambitious about it.

Think it might go 12's?

 

Nice improvement! What temps was it outside in Alaska?
I thought you would have trapped a better MPH with those mods.

 

Nice times. Is that on street tires or DRs?

 

Street tires, 31.5 inches tall(too tall for 3.73 gears), in 4x4. Stock exhaust manifolds, stock y-pipe with cats, and the truck won't shift out of 4x4. Kills me on the top end.

I'll see what it does with less weight next. Then I'll be looking to borrow some 28" slicks, or maybe even 26" since I have the 3.73's.

 

WOW! Congrats! some great numbers, i cant get my truck to get into the 13s hopfully after the level 7 FLT trans is installed i cant stop drop down to a 3.0 pully throw a cam in and get closer to your times. looks like a fun daily driver.
