Congrats on the PB. Its a shame they weren't running 1/4 mile. I hate when my track runs 1/8th mile

It took 15 min to charge it and then lanes were closed...(slap to my forehead,). So, my best 1/8 mile was a 6.89@102.46 with a 1.600 60'. The mph increase in the 1/8 was only .1 but I bet my 1/4 mile mph would have been 130. The "calibration" was for 100 octane and was worth quite a bit of power to 604hp/619tq now. Previous hp was 590/605...not incredible but better. So...that is much more information than is offered by our record holder. You're welcome! lol! BTW...my boost is the same...no change to the 10" lower only.
Pretty impressive for what you have into the car!

What would it take to get a better 60'? Slightly looser ATI or Coan converter?

How's your traction off the line?

These heavy beasts need all the help they can get to get moving off the line, which equates to way better times at the end.

thanks...it sucked about the 1/8 mile but the car responded well with the 100 octane tune. I am excited to use it in 2014 for the 1/4 mile. My tuner had time this week to work on it and get the car to the dyno. Local track had a special day today and it was ridiculously crowded. Unfortunately, my own stupidity cost me a 2nd run.

My launch was not perfect but a slightly looser converter may help. 1.58 is my usual best 60' times so not that far off. These #s seem reasonable as even guys with Weld RTS wheels and slicks can't do much if any better than 1.57. Traction was not a dead hook but close enough.

Redline does the tuning, but it is a private individual's car....as far as I can tell. So why the secrecy??

timeslip pic: DA at the time of the run was in the -400ft range...not as good as my best 1/4 mile e.t. in which the DA was -700ft
