Going down to Bithlo tonight, hopefully the weather will hold out. I'd like to see at least high 13s now that the long tubes are on. Last visit I had 3@14.2 and 3@14.0 which was pretty aggravating. Wish me luck fellas

 

Good luck! I need to make it back to the track since I fixed all the stuff I broke last time

 

Thanks MOO! Yea for sure man! You go to the strip in NH right?

 

I went there once when I was living in Boston, but now I'm closer to Lebanon Valley Dragway so that's where I go

 

That's cool, I used to live in Derry a long time ago. When I was little lol. Anyway, made four passes last night. 13.65 13.56 13.67 and a 13.84(tried to adjust the launch and it started raining). I'm really pleased, I mean the headers made a 1/2 second jump. Nuts.... The second pass I made which was the fastest, I had a 2.0 60' but I missed 2nd and ground it just a little. I think with some more practice, experience, and better weather I can get low 13s, my buddy thinks maybe even high 12s.

 

What rpm have you been launching at?

 

Idk really, somewhere between 2 and 25. I think I need to leave at higher rpm and back off the throttle once I'm movin

 

Now you know why I have an automatic with a Precision Industries 3500 stall torque converter and an extremely aggressive tune on the engine and transmission. It is a little bit edgy at slow speeds but there isn't a manual shift guy that could keep up. I never miss a shift. Please all the manual guys proceed to take your shots......... When I was younger I loved rowing thru the gears. But on my best day I could never shift like today's automatics with a great tune.

 

Yea man I hear ya. It's not the same though, as you know. But there's no doubt that with a good tune and converter autos eats my snack all day. Stock autos are bs the tune makes a big difference. I just like the added control. I get to talk more **** after I put it on kids haha
