Wow, good 60' times but then it falls on its face....

Does it have stock axles? I say that because i have had problems with axles that worked fine on the dyno but on the road they would put the car in a bind and not let it rev quick.....even with 700rwhp. Just a thought

You need to get a good tune in the car.

Bump lewylew.........no problems with my ZL 550!

60 & 330 look fine compared to these times.
Something happens after that point like reduced power mode.
Any codes captured?

From your timeslips it looks like your car isn't breathing well.The supercharger is forcing the air into your intake system but it seems like you're having a problem with how well and efficiently it is flowing.Your fuel system might be holding you back also but I think that your biggest problem right now is with your air flow.

Your 60' times are very respectable for a street car at Bristol running on real street tires but those reaction times are awful.The last time that I had an .090 light in my class I didn't make it past the 2nd round.

Thats interesting. Not everyone is aware of the conditions at Bristol. Could you please post some of your slips for comparison. It would really help to see some time slips of a good driver with a 4200lb. manual trans car, stock street tires and using a foot break.

That car has problems, or the driver has problems.

....well that much has been established

i'm wondering if something wasn't maybe installed wrong, like a hose is loose, etc. and its causing the car to go into a limp mode or something

After 25 days and 66 posting the assistance I requested was given offered quickly by SLP and Jannetty Racing. The car is being stored until spring, then SLP has offered to investigate into the issues if any. I believe in open honest discussion to develop solutions but most of what has been posted is repetative and unhelpful. Some has been down right insulting and lacked insight. So, as the author, I request this thread be closed. I will not review it anymore until, the problems get addressed or I sell the car. If SLP is able to find anything more I will post it for the benefit of the members. Until then I am done!
