Ill be waiting!

I did three passes
First one was without a burnout, took off "off Idle", and was 3/4 throttle till 1-2 shift then went WOT.

R/T ... 4.053
60' ... 2.633
330 ... 6.852
1/8 ... 9.829
MPH ... 84.17
1000 ... 12.404
1/4 ... 14.521
MPH ... 107.99


Second pass was a small burnout, brake boosted to 0psi, started in 2nd gear and manually shifted into 3rd, was WOT off and on during run.

R/T ... .757
60' ... 2.524
330 ... 6.550
1/8 ... 9.401
MPH ... 85.73
1000 ... 11.890
1/4 ... 13.939
MPH ... 110.99

And my third pass fell inbetween the first two and I forgot to shift into third and hit the rev limiter.

So I guess no one wins the big prize!!! Chase came out to give me a fire jacket which was cool of him and he shot some vids of a couple runs and maybe he'll post them up. Either way it was fun for my first time ever at the track. Don't worry though, I'll drop the times soon enough...it's a good starting point!

 

Congrats on going to the track...unlike some of the poseurs and dyno queens on this board. Based on your mph you can run 11's for sure, more later. Like you said, it's a place to start...doesn't mean s..t. Good for you to stick with it through all the bs you've had to go through! Mean *** CC.

 

Julien,
you suck!!

lol, no I'm kidding bro. your first time ever? A drag racing virgin? you must have been shakin in your shoes...

There's so much to watch and do your first time. Lghts, brakes, rpm, lights, sounds...it is over whemling the first few times! I still get all nervous when I line up!

Like Z06Ted says, your speeds are good for high 11's. Congrats for getting the Dark Cloud up to the pole!

 

I was wondering when someone was gonna say something!!
It has way more in it time wise so, I just have to get it out and onto the track that's all! Instead of people having to find the power to go faster...I have to figure out how to get it to the ground! It'll be fun!

It was built for top end anyways, and knew it wasn't gonna be good at the track first time out, but it was fun to see where I'm at.

Truck runs alot faster than this...

 

oh yeah, for sure. I think you could get it into 11's easy with traction mods, and that in itself is awesome for the big *** truck it is! Don't worry about it, get some slicks and try again until you think you've got it dialed, then up the boost!

 

your short time and 1/8 times suck....you arent even putting the hammer down until after where you go from 85mph to 110 in 4.5 seconds!

 

lots and lots of practice.

 

Congrats all the way around for sure on a most impressive set-up. I love the MPH!!! Easy does it and then post up that 11 sec slip.

 

I was going to say 13.x but I didn't want to get you all upset but man jules stomp that pedal, rear tires are single use only these days!
