New Best in the T/A
 

previous best was a 12.26 @ 114mph

i guessed that i'd run a 12.5 @ 112mph last night, since my 3-4 synchros are so bad i have to double clutch to go into 4th gear. that = i should hit at least a 12.0 @ 114-115mph maybe even 11s with a good trans.

1st run

60' 1.785
330' 5.064
1/8 7.786 @ 90.45 mph
1000' 10.173
1/4 12.212 @ 111.47mph

2nd run

60' 1.702
330' 5.010
1/8 7.738 @ 90.34mph
1000' 10.143
1/4 12.176 @ 111.85mph

not being able to rip her into 4th was killing me and my trap speed
i did not powershift these runs either

next time i go, i will have the skinnies on at the very least and a lil weight gone as well

and after dhl locates my trans, i will have that in too!

notes: i didnt have the skinnies on that night, yes my a/c was still in and no i havent had the car tuned yet. :) however, my other goal of getting my 60' times to 1.79 or faster was achieved. i was launching @ at 5800rpm. i slipped it a lil too much on the first run. 2nd run, I was almost dumping the clutch.

Awesome man!

Soon I will get back there with you!

JW :D

Cool! How long do you expect your new trans to last you? :mrgreen:

Congrats on the new best Ron 8)

thanks all! this next transmission, pending dhl pulls thru and finds it, should last me quite some time! no more powershifting for me!! true story. i got my shifts down pretty good w/o powershifting now and that will help it last a while :)

congrats you def go 11s w/ the new trans
