With the shorter tires it's like a shorter gear.
Before I was going thru the lights at the top of 3rd gear. Now it's shifting to 4th well before the lights. I think that's what's killed my mph.
Rear shocks were set to 0/12. Just a little preload on the Caltracs.

Done.
14.239 was my best. 1.991 60'. Banging on the rev limiter in 3rd thru the lights for a 95.03mph. That was my first run.
Second run was my highest speed; 14.257, 1.999 60', 97.45mph.
14.354 @ 97.06
14.403 @ 96.82
14.354 @ 96.93
So that's my truck stock. Time to get my BlackBear tune installed.

Well, the Blackbear tune was good for about .1 and 3mph. Best were 14.254 and 99.5 mph. Very consistent in the 14.2 & 99mph range. I guess there isn't much there tuning when you're running E85.
Biggest disappoint is I'm still only hitting 1.9 60' times. DRs, Caltracs & DA shocks, I would hope I was at least .1 -.2 better. It definitely does't like me loading up the stock converter even a little. We did notice that even with the shocks set at 0 compression, the rear was very stiff with the preload I had on the Caltracs; loosening them up didn't help tho.
So, I'm a little lost in were to go next in getting better 60' times. Any ideas?

I got an updated tune from Justin. Tweaking on the E85 tables & a fix for the horrible 1-2 shift.
It doesn't look like there's an opportunity to get back out to Ennis til 10/25. I guess my next shot at 13s will have to wait till then.
Or maybe I could enter the Fall Nationals.
