First off HUGE thanks to John Boss281 Not only did he let be borrow his Bogarts, he drove an hour to meet me on Friday afternoon. Thanks again bud! I owe you one
Weather was in the high 30s/low 40s all day. Clear and crisp, don't know the DA yet but I am guessing it was pretty good. Same mods as before except I was using Johns Bogarts with 26 in. ET Streets on them and skinnies
First pass I launched at 5000 off the 2 step. 60 foot time was a 1.72 with a spin but the ET was a 12.09@113 mph!!! I felt I really had a shot at 11's if I nailed everything.
Raised the launch RPM to 5500 went 12.07 and then a 12.06 both at 113 mph both with 1.68 60 foot times
I watched a video of a pass and the stock shocks are just WAY too soft. The car would squat hard and not leave hard.
I decided to raise the launch rpm to 6000 and see if maybe a spin would work better. It worked and the car ran a 12.02@113 with a 1.64 60 foot time. SO F'in close!!!!!
Came around for one more shot at it. Raised the 2 step to 6200 rpms. It was all or nothing on this pass. I was going to give it hell and hope for the best. Launched at 6200 and banged every gear at 6200
60 foot 1.62 best ever!!
1/8th mile [email protected]
1/4 miles [email protected]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am beyond happy right now. I knew if I got everything right and had good weather the car had 11's in it. Now I need some good shocks, my own wheels, and I think it will go 11.80s with the stock untouched motor
