he is supposed to be putting together the video from the track. he will probably post up today or so about his outing. he don't have the net at his new house, so he has to wait till he gets to work or goes to his gf's house before he post anything.

I'm at work now. The conditions.... no track prep, 90+ temp, shady track timing system?!?
Anyway, this hopefully proves my theory alittle bit. Traction was terrible, and especially bad on the juice.
First motor pass against my buddy in the dmax...
13.108@103.72(Every time I've ever been to the track with the new setup, I've trapped 105-107) 60ft was a 2.002
Second motor pass was a 13.273@103.44 60ft-2.058
First nitrous pass was a 12.67@109 with a mind blowing 2.23 60ft.
Second nitrous pass was a damn 13.149@109(didn't tell me the 60ft time)
Last nitrous pass was a 13.388@98mph Something tells me that trap was just a tiny bit off considering everything. 10mph to be exact.
I'll have the vids ready late tonight and I'll let you guys determine if its pulling harder. It feels as though it is pulling so much harder than before!!! The motor sounds so much better, and the overall appearance on the vid is that the truck is faster than those times. I've got a sweet vid of me sitting at the line on a little tuner car, then running his *** down so hard.
Check those times out and let me know what you think. My buddy in the duramax is extremely consistent, but he was 4-5 tenths off of his normal times on every pass. We finally got fed up with it and started picking on people just to race. Everybody was off of their times, which makes me believe the timing setup wasn't setup correctly.
I'm going to Memphis Friday night and race at a "real" track. Hopefully, I'll need to bring a helmet.

I like! I know where there is another "real" track..... if you're up to the trip.

I went to the Redding Drag Strip in, get this, Redding Cali. The timing computer messed up and they could get it record the MPH for the left lain. Then the prestage lights didnt work for either lanes. It took them two hours to get it working even that far. And this is at a NHRA track.
They were however very generous with the VHT.
