Last night was the first time I ran in good weather since the tt3000 swap. Let me start by saying if I can't find 1 more simple mod to do I may have to change my name. Pretty good air last night and truck was hooking up pretty good. my best of the night was a 13.000 @ 103.13 and 1.81 60'. All others were 13.01, 02, 04, and 08 on the first pass. 60's were all 1.81, 82, and 83's. Mph was 100, 102, 103, 104.

I did enter the bracket race after 2 time trials. First race was against a lightning. My dial was 13.03 and his 12.95. I got him on the tree with a .028 against his .467. I had about 3 trucks on him so I let off before the line instead of braking and still broke out. The outcome was my 13.02 @100.05 to his 13.29 @105.21. So I was back in the time trial lane.

I noticed a BIG difference in performance on the street when I swapped the 20's with the stockers and sticky's. The big wheels are killing me on the road so I have decided to get rid of them as soon as I get the chance. Now I have to find another wheel. May go back with the 18" timeless 6 or try some intro's. Sorry so long. Later

 

So with no other changes in your setup the Vig 2800 was almost .2 faster than the Yank 3000??

 

It's to bad you did your own heads. With some flow figures, you could have a custom spec'd camshaft made out & keep your name.

 

Dmn man, you're sooo close!

What does your 20" rim/tire combo weigh? How about your other rims?

Just curious because I think my 20" centerlines will come out weighing not much more than my stock rims/tires.

 

I weighed the 20's last night at 68.5 lbs. the stockers were 48lbs.
I've closed up my exhaust a bit too since the vig. I might look in to electric cut-outs. I'm sure that could be another tenth.

 

damn thats a good time if your doing it on 20's.Thats a good time period

 

You are still in front of me, although my times are slowly comming down every time I go to the track. Ripped off a 13.17@102 last night. I too am looking for that little extra to get me into a 12 on motor and 11 on the juice. I need two more stock rims to put my skinny tires on, put on my shortbelt and remove the sway bar and I think I may be able to pull it off on a sticky track with good air. Did you pull out all the stops last night for your 13.00(shortbelt, swaybar, etc)?

 

cutouts would be my suggestion. for both you and kenny. then again, what do i know. i still play in the 14's.

 

Nice times! I wouldnt know what its like to make it down the track that fast...yet. lol

 

I had the shortbelt on and no I didn't remove the sway bar. I don't know if it would help any. I too would like to put some little skinny's on the front.
