New personal best...



Missed second, so I just put it in 5th and cruised down the track.



On to the video of the runs. Nothing special. Track prep was horrible as I couldn't hook for shit.
Car has gone 1.6 short times bogging. Couldn't get anything better than upper 1.8's last night. DA was very close to 8000 last night as well.

A more agressive cam and you'll be hitting high 18's no problem.

Re: New personal best...

That run was nothing but 1st gear.
Missed second...and said screw it. Put it into 5th and cruised down the track.

Lost speed from the 1/8 mile to the 1/4.

It was a test and tune night. I wasn't focused on the light at all. Was wanting to make sure I left at the perfect RPM.
The RT didn't affect the ET....


I still have a lot of learning to do with this set-up.

Re: New personal best...

You may of posted a 19+ second ET in the 1/4 mile, but I bet you got the best fuel mileage doing it.

Once again, the Hybrid wins.
