I'm sure you've answered this before, but what size blower? Overdriven? Max boost? Beautiful car!

 

[Cranky]

Well, if I was there, I wouldn't have to stop by, right?? Oh wait, you mean stop by your pit area? Oh, ok. Good luck!!

Judging from the ratio of likes vs the number of "I'll see you there " responses, it looks like most of us either have to work or have honey-do lists today. You're making some jealous SOB's. Have a great time.

So cool Hemi-Itis!
Wish I lived in West Virginia, I'd be there!

t That being said 5 passes in for the weekend in the hot humid air with a DA over 2000. Saturday my 1st pass was through the exhaust and 10.16 with exhaust out the back bumper with 4 lbs of boost.Uncapped the dumps and it went 10 oh something on the lean side.So I upped 2 jet sizes and gave it 2 more lbs and it went 9.9.
Sunday morn 1st pass was 9.7,2nd was 9.6,3rd was 9.8 and last was 9.6 with 10 lbs of boost No matter what I did it would only go 140 mph.Moved the timing around a little with no improvement.

Some might be able to see this>>>>>>>> ​

What I especially like about your car is that you DRIVE IT and race it!
I hope I wind up somewhere in the 10s, and I say that because of the cars I see run at my local track that one day I want to see in my rearview mirror!

That's one bad assed rocket bro. Love the shots and the video!

Trying to get quicker can be a frustrating experience. One of the things that helps me is a spread sheet using a bunch of time slips. Then do the math between 60-330, 330-660, 660-1000, 1000-1320. All laid in row on a chart can help pinpoint where some runs are better/worse than others. I also compare to NHRA stockers and S/S cars. You can find everyone's progressive times from points meets and National events under results. I look for cars with similar ETs.

My first challenge to overcome are 60 ft. times in the low to mid 2.xx range. At 106 mph I know I have a "12 second car", but at 13.30, the difference between 2.3 and 1.6 seconds 60ft puts me where I should be. I have a line lock I bought a year ago or more, and I need to install it. I'm pretty sure my stock leaf springs are worn because I bent the bracket on Mancini's best pinion snubber from wrapping up the rear end so much, and I have ideas on how to launch the clutch better.
Anyway I don't want to hijack.
RACE ON BROTHERS!

Was the 9.6@ 140 the best with the car so far?

At LVR it went 9.3 @ 146 or 147 through the exhaust. I felt I should have gone at least 8.99 but I will have to wait till fall for the good mineshaft air.
The intake air temp was as high as 185,,,,,maybe I need some kinda intercooler

Duct tape a 10 pound bag of ice on top of the air scoop?
