did you end up running on Sat? I got there late and it was ridiculously crowded... I ended up getting into the 12's again but no PB, there was a pretty nasty headwind, it seemed to be slowing down alot of people

 

No, I went on Fri to Capital to see if it was indeed the rim spinning inside the wheel (I had them remounted with a TON of sticky bead sealer) and only got 2 clean runs in before the it started to slip again......it must be the clutch. 1800 bucks toasted in 4 months and under 100 passes. Got a new PB on the first run right off the highway with no cool down though. DA at the time was -500ish, but dropped to -1500 by 9pm. I really think I could have gone 108-108.3mph, but it was too cold and not near enough track prep to get into the 12's. I am just going to let it hang out and sit for a while.....I will probably fire it up and run it at Cecil in Dec with the hopes to get a 12.9-13.0 before it goes under the knife.

 

werd sucks man, well let me know if you go to cecil, I told myself yesterday was my last time running untill i get a tune and fix some issues, especially cause there was a guy there running a c5 with my same exact mods, just stickier street tires and a tune, and he was running 12.4's and 12.5's and trapping 112-113 which is where my car should be if I had the tune and a bit stickier street tires....

but I will give it one more shot at cecil to see if I can hit 12.7 before the changes

 

Tune + MT DR's = low 12's all day.

 

yup thats the plan, tune, try it out on street tires.... then bump up to DR's and call it a day ha ( i have been talking about tuning this thing for like 1.5 years.. but grad school owned my finances, glad its over now ha)

 

Tune + dr's + gears + stall=11.9
