I tightened up the frontend and now coming up 2 feet instead of the big wheelies and was deadly consistent all day. Within .001 all day With a R/T of .025 and .056 on a .400 full tree, it was a great day. A really really good day.
Our track photographer didn't get any of my wheels up pictures yesterday.
May the slow guy can elaborate more. :buttkick: :rofl:
 
We want to see some vids of said wheelies - it would be cool to install a go-pro wheelie capture camera.

HELL YES - Let's see those!

I don't have the money or balls to do what you are doing, but I think it is one of the coolest things a guy can do.

Keep up the good work!
 
I never saw any wheelies! And I'm not slow, just off a tad.

And I choose not to wheelie.

Yesterday it was 1.28-1.29 60 foot. barometric pressure was the worst I've seen it in a long time with a 29.72-29.7676 with about 50% humidity. Rain was right in and around us all day.
Well I loosened up the shocks a little today, I realized I need to get some more lift to get this big boat up & out.
I do like my wheelies a lot.

sounds good, Thanks, for the response, I like seeing the wheelies too, but like to see them run the best potential too...
 
sweet loved the video and great reaction times hope to get mine to the track soon waiting on new harness to get here from Summit
 
SSR cool video, Thanks... is it breaking up on the top end ?? or was that just video quality or something else ??, like where the camera is mounted or on the rev limiter possibly, making it sound like it's breaking up... I did see the shift light on for a while, in hi-gear but it seemed to break-up before that, earlier down track too {kind of like a lean surge/miss, maybe} sorry I love the car & videos you post & I'm not trying to be a armchair tuner... just an observation, Good luck either way, have fun testing next weekend...
 
If I did wheelies, I would have slow 60 ft. times! :)

NOPE no lean pop or breaking up. I checked racepak and it is coming up lean 14.8 .
I cant go any richer. i'm at .119 jets now square.
going to drill out a set and try to richen it up more.maybe .125 jets should get me some more mph and ET. HOPEFULLY.

Just drilled them out to .126 on all 4 corners.
Putting on my spare set of Carter 9755S carbs with the bigger jet size and will see if it picks up more.
