I met up with David (don't know his username on here), his wife Jessica, and Steve (32Krazy!) for little racing. David was racing his 300 and running 11's and Steve was sliding around all over the track like he was wearing ice skates. He can fill you in on that.

Anyway, I'm still trying to get a feel for what's good and what isn't, so I'm thinking this isn't too good. I did three runs and all were on stock sized street tires.

All runs had 1.8 sixty footers and all ET's were 12.3-12.4. The best run was a 12.30 @ 111.04 MPH. By the way, my launch consisted of rolling into the throttle from idle. If we were able to run more frequently I would have pushed the limits and launched more aggressively, but that wasn't the case.

I won't go into the A/F drama, but it feels like there's a little bit more meat on the bone.

folks this guy aint no joke!! 12.3 on street tires and the first pass in a 1/4 in this car. his consistency was great and with dr.'s he will kill 12.0 or better.

anthony i had a blast! thanx for coming out and helping

 

Thanks. Sorry I left early, but I had a hot wife waiting for me. Hopefully I'll get the A/f thing figured out (on the cheap) and stay within sight of you when you run those DR's next time.

 

What A/F are you getting? I did a run from 0-105mph and was right on 11.5 to 11.6 the whole time I was at WOT and I was also trapping a 111mph.

 

I'm not logging A/F yet, so based on observations its ranging from11.8-12.5 with intermittent 14.6 at full boost. The last part is what's scaring me. I'm changing the fuel filter today, and if the problem persist I'll swap the pump. I don't believe its tune related.

 

What are you putting in the tank? 93 or 100 octane? Do you log your IAT's?

I installed my wide band and it's giving me an education.

Hints:
Its not the filter or the pump and you are correct about it not being tune related. Also, you will be able to get into the 11's on street tires. Please don't ask how I know these things..

Good showing, keep it up!

 

regarding being lean no hints allowed. what do you think the issue is?

 

I didn't log anything last night and haven't logged the AIT's yet. I don't think I'll be doing too many WOT runs until I figure out the fueling issues. As for fuel, I was running 3/4 tank of 93.

 

I agree that 11's should be possible on street tires, as 1.8's was with me just rolling into it from idle. Next time out I'll try a little more aggressive launch and see if I can get it down to the 1.7's. I don't believe I'll do any better than 1.7's on street tires, but I'm too new at launching this thing to really tell. Clearly a huge variable in this is track prep.

 

Great meeting ya Steve and good to see ya Anthony!! Here's that 12.387 pass...

 

Thanks David! I can't wait to see your beast in action after the stroker.
Damn, I need two more cylinders!

 

wait weres mine! great run anthony

 

Thanks. Too bad I didn't get a 12.2, so close.

I'll ask David to upload the video for you.

 

found you a set of rims 16" 18 lbs each . interested?

 

I want to say no, but yes, I'm interested.

 

Here's the one Steve and I were running & I had to get out of it around the 1/8 after hitting that wet spot on the track.


Steve's later run before we left, crappy quality at night on that cam...

that gsx in the 2nd run was a beast. fully caged mid 11 car
