Default Re: Ran the 1/2 mile yesterday - Clayton, GA - WannaGoFast

Anthony, good runs there, one thing about the killer chiller,, at that speed and any thing over 120 for 10 to 20 seconds the heated air goes by so fast that it does not have time to cool, I was out a while back ran 150 ,, had to hold about 130 for about 20 seconds. The Iat;s went to the 120;s then pushed it to 150 the Iat went above the 170's, as i slowed to around to the 80mph range the Iat;s dropped to the 70's.
what i am saying is, for road racing,or the 1/2 run you still need ice and the IAT's will still go up. maybe not as much. for 1/4 mile runs, at 133 mph my iat start at around 65. outside temp 97, at the end of the 1/4 are around 120. ( remember the ac is off at wot.) Ice would help at this time. jim
