Not too impressive, I was expecting more but...

New track, Palm Beach International Raceway (replaced our old track, Moroso). It was my first time @ any track since last February.

This is still running no custom tune (just the JLT canned tune from the Predator with 4* timing removed and rev limiter adjusted. Nothing else). It was about 73* out.

60': 1.599
339: 5.005
1/8: 7.760
MPH: 88.46
1000: 10.146
1/4: 12.142
MPH: 112.90



Only got 2 nitrous passes in since I noticed I was leaking nitrous like crazy from the purge solenoid when I pulled into the pits after the 12.1. Couldn't fix it since I have no jack on hand on the solenoids need to be accessed from under the car :(

your a manual right?? what did you launch at??

so if you tweaking 4 degrees out of a 91 octane tune.. your PROBABLY still higher than stock timing right??
I'm not stating this as wrong.. just a hmm thing.. as i'm running a 87 octane tune.. with a 125 shot... which the 87 is still higher than stock timing.. were you on 91 -93 or race gas ??

Slo,

I'm a 5 speed, I launched at 6K spraying out of the hole. The car hooked pretty well. I was running 93 Octane. I took 4 degrees out b/c I was worried I'd melt plugs again.

Should I be taking less out? HT0 plugs, stock fuel system

I'm in the learning curve myself.. I know that it sucks with the helmet to hear any ping.. but i guess you didn't hear any?

I'm still on the HT1s

You're launching at 6K with stock clutch, tranny, and rearend?

Yeah im not worried about breaking an axle. I did however grind up the spider gears already, replaced those. I also busted up the differential end upper bushing. Got that replaced with the Poly Steeda bushing.

This was my first time @ the track with the Upper & Lowers.

Thx guys. I'm very happy with the 60' but I feel like there should be more left in the 100 shot if I get it tuned.

^ Absolutely. You should have at least 3-4 more mph with it tuned.

I could give two shits about MPH, I'm more focused on ET however picking up 3-4 would make me very happy.

I just dont see the need to get the tune for the 100 shot since Im upping to a 150 shot soon.
