Adam, where the hell did you find half a second and that mph? Your car must love that good air.
Kirk, nice to see some gain for the weight reduction
BLS, cool that Shamu still getting faster down the track. Time for some weight reduction  |
I met my goal of 10.6x but I was hoping for a little more with the amount of fab work I put in (though most work involved cutting stuff out). My 60' was consistently worse than last year...Between the brake issue and now seeing how hard it was pulling right in all the launches it needed some suspension adjustment. Sucking a half quart of oil into the intake didnt help either lol.
RW-2012 I averaged 10.79 on clean passes. This RW-2013 average was 10.69 on clean passes. So dropping 180lbs, opening up the intake, and some shift point tuning only cut a .1 off. Despite the crappy launches, that .1 was all in the 1/8 and the back half was almost identical to last year.
I think it has a 10.5x in it as-is once the few issues are worked out and I can get back to 1.3x 60' times. Maybe more if fixing said issues snow ball into a cam meant for racing

Maybe we should try some weight relocation? Move the battery to the trunk?
