Default I thought I had an 11 second car???

Well, maybe I do. Today was bittersweet in my quest for the 11's. My stock clutch started slipping in the top of 1st gear and when I shifted to second. The rest of the run was pretty good, considering. Timeslip reads as follows.

R/T-.096
60'-1.578 WTF??? WOW, I know.
330-4.894
1/8-7.661
MPH-89.90
1000-10.051
1/4-12.051
MPH-112.90

Dude, I almost got an 11 second timeslip. I'm positive I wont get there on my stock clutch though. It slipped terribly the next run and I just walked it to an 18.6...LOL?

Do you feel comfortable spraying that big of a shot without any tuning? Nice times btw.

This guys not impressed, he wanted a 10 second car!


Great launch BTW. 6K drop with slick and a 100 shot though? I dont know how many great 60s you have on that motor.

Do you have a second pass with a 60' anywhere near that low? I think the absolute best 60' I've ever pulled on my BFG DRs (295/35-18) was 1.70, that was with about 15psi of tire pressure and heating them for a good 10 seconds. A swap to my 15 inch welds with ET streets gave me low 1.6 to high 1.5 60's.

I don't think the BFG DR in that size can stick to go 1.5s....

Nice slip, but I'd get a second slip like that before I assume I have a car that can pull 1.5s...

damn... iguess it is deja vu

anyway, op, you should come out to pacific raceways next friday, i'll prolly be there.

although, assuming this was bremerton, i don't think you'll run faster at PR (assuming this is all the car is capable of). bremerton is a little faster, i set my fastest time there...

but pr is a much nicer track
