Default Attempt #2 - Bandimere Wed 9/18

Rained out last week, going to try again tomorrow. Will be there probably around 6:30 or so, in my 1500 D-max. Hope to see some of you there!

If I can break 12's I'll be ecstatic. Last time out was a 13.95 on a 70-ish HP tune. This time I'm running a 120hp tune.

I'm running a set of DSP5 tunes from Kory Willis now.

So close to 12's! Not quite though. Got 4 runs in tonight.

First was 13.584 @ 98.93, 1.833 60' on the 80hp tune.

Second was 13.306 @ 99.68, 1.815 60' on the 100hp tune. Limped the trans on the 4-5 shift right as I was crossing the finish line.

Third was 13.396 @ 101.96, 1.965 60' on the 120hp tune. Spun the tires pretty good off the line, 60' wasn't good. I raised the shift point on the 4-5 shift so it wouldn't limp again, crossed the line at 3900 RPM.

Last run I let quite a bit of air out of the tires to try and hook better. I didn't have a pressure gauge but held the valve open for almost 15 seconds. Ran 13.144 @ 102.72 with a 1.807 60'.

I think if I messed around with trying to strap the front end down and maybe lower tire pressure some more I could get pretty damn close to running a 12. I'm done for the season though, hopefully will have a built trans and even bigger tunes by the time next season comes around!

I just ran it through a DA calculator and got 7725 ft. Their correction calculator has me running an equivalent 12.58 @ 107 at sea level. I wonder how accurate that is.
