Turbo 5.3 9.013 @81 1/8th mile
 

So the nearest track opened up last weekend to start off the season. Full day of test and tune. Decided to take the truck and get some times before i upgraded the transmission. Made 6 passes in total. Car #90

First pass i got a lil anxious and blew off the tires bad. 2.7 60' :jest:

Second pass same tire pressure (around 40psi) was my best mph @ 81.11.

Then i let some air out. went down to (approx. 22psi) managed a 2.1 60' and the best pass of the day 9.013 @ 80.93

4th pass i left good, and then the tires blew off at the top of first gear.

5th pass should have been my best, started off with the gear selector in 1 truck pulled its best 60' and was running great and i forgot to shift into 2 :sigh:

6 pass the transmission was begging for me to stop, so i packed up and headed home.

Not bad at all for an ecsb on only 7 psi. Sounds like some drag radials and traction bars are in your near future!

Not a bad place to start. Easy 8s on the way!

I went a couple weeks ago and all we have is an 1/8. Ran 8.65 at 79 mph with a 1.86 60ft. It's fun an addicting. Good runs

Well i was at least hoping for a mid 8 sec. pass. but with a stock trans and street tires you really can't ask for much. and my setup isn't really for the track. definitely feels faster on the street.

It sure is. Thanks!

My first pass was a 9.54 @ 5.5 lbs lol. What a POS! Changed gears, same weather...8.90 @ 5.5lbs. A step at a time :)

I'm assuming you're 2wd? Sounds like you need traction bad.

yup 2wd, didn't really spin on take off I tried to feather the throttle, top of first gear spun bad.

the 1-2 shift felt like it took a full second to accomplish, slipping and what not
