Good post vader. We could hot lap 4th gens, and basically did 2-3 runs in a row until I'd see the trans temps get high.

Different story with my 2006 TBSS. I noticed right away that they ran slow when hot. I ran 14.7 off the highway and a string of low 14's until I let it cool for 50 minutes. I then started working my way down to my best stock run of 13.84@99.

Stock my '10 Camaro SS will run 1-2 tenths slower once it got hot (when totally stock).

Tuning the fans is a must for a regular drag racer.

Really wishing now that I'd had a chance to run the '02 before selling :(

I always pop the hood and kill the motor for as long as I possibly can between passes. Just learning about timing pull and such, but I don know the car runs better when it's cool. I'll talk to my tuner about the fans- now it is my daily driver. There is no reason that the fans coming on earlier would be a bad thing in that respect, correct?

My fans have all custom settings and mine is my daily driver, no worries.

But Not given the Opportunity to correct any mistakes is just Unfair and does not make my tunes JUNK!

I am surprised at this remark since I have never left anyone hanging, I always answer emails, phone calls, and PMs.

Ted.

all of my jannetty tunes are top notch. if you would have worked with ted he would have made you extremely happy.
p.s. it never occured to me that ted is human.
