Ran my new best sunday at Capitol Raceway. weather was around mid 60's with 500+ DA. track was hooking like a **** and didn't spin in 4 runs!

1st run was hot just got there:

13.314 @ 105.33 1.901 60'

2nd run water temp 140.

RT: .604

60' 1.853

330: 5.541

1/8: 8.431

MPH: 84.30

1000: 11.007

1/4: 13.192

MPH: 105.74

3rd run i got hot lapped staged at 200 water temp and ran:

13.356 @ 104.84 1.893 60'

4th run water temp 160

RT: .574

60' 1.858

330: 5.457

1/8: 8.440

MPH: 82.95

1000: 11.013

1/4: 13.187

MPH: 105.84

all in all i know what the car will run cooled down and hot. get me some good DA like i had when i ran the 13.26 which was -1500 DA and sunday was 500+ DA at 60+ degrees and i'd have a strong 12 pass. was hoping to pull a sub 1.80 60' time since my best 60' was last year with a 1.815.

DR's and a 3000 Vig that i got my eyes on will do the trick along with the crank pulley, AIR pump elim kit, MAT relocation should put me mid 12's i would think easily.

then i'll throw the other motor in with the LT1 intake and ZZ409 cam with 1.6 RR's and some work on the stock heads for now with a 150 shot and let'er rip :D

will post Timeslips and vids soon!

some pics from sunday at the track :)






Current Mod List:
Mostly stock all free mods K&N open air box, MAF descreened, TB Bypassed, 160* T-Stat, Accel Super Coil, 12* degree advance timing, TPiS Long Tube Headers, Gutted Cat, and No Mufflers. Hayden Tranny cooler. Stock 1600 rpm stall and a 2.59 rear gear with Goodyear F1 D3's at 18.5 psi.

 

Nice :cheers:

 

Nice and consistent once it cooled down. :cheers:

 

hot or cool pretty consistant. as long as i know about what the water temp will be usually anything over 160 and over runs 2 tenths slower than 140 and under....lol

thanks though!

 

:cheers:

 

bump for Hee Haw ;)

 

Congrats on the great times. You should consider coming to Etown on Saturday for the challenge.......it should be a great time!

 

When are you going to hit the 12's ? You are almost there.

Vic

 

hopefully with alittle more tweeking i can hit it as she sits but i got a set of DR's coming and want to do the crank pulley, AIR elim, and MAT relocation sensor and i'm sure i can hit solid 12's :thumbs:

i was gonna come up this saturday and race but change of plans and i can't :( it's a dual purpose trip and i rather do both race and do this meeting in one weekend so i'll hit the next race ;)

plus my drag radials won't be here in time and i don't think my F1's will make it. they are pretty bald....lol am thinking on hitting my local club race at MIR though. http://www.easternfbody.com alot closer if i get a flat on the way home ;)

Good times 12s soon. :party:

 

my 13.18 and 13.19 timeslips!



some reason i chase MPH in the car but the overall MPH was pretty close to eachother. the car runs pretty consistant but i've always chased MPH.

weird....lol

 

Nice times. Very good considering the 2.59 gears you are running.. :thumbs:

 

Man, those are really good 60' times for the tires/gears you have! Congrats!

 

:iagree: with 60's like that and near enough to 106mph, 12's are just a matter of time and putting down one good run where everything comes together.

thanks! i was hoping for some high 1.7 60's since i ran a 1.815 last year with out the long tube headers. just need to find some good air :thumbs:

 

Was that running 12º timing, with solid 100 octane race gas? I think that may be my problem, is the octane of gas around here SUCKS. So, my friend (works for CL Bryant/76) told me next time I go to the track, he'll give me a full tank of 100 octane race unleaded. So, HOPEFULLY, next time my 87 goes to the track, it'll be able to copy your results :)
BTW: I have your mods, PLUS Converter/DR's/Underdrive pulley
:party:

 

i was on pump 93 octane this go around but yes on 12^ timing.

 

Time to update your sig :thumbs:

 

Hmm, our "pump" is 91, and it's so diluted it's not funny. But thanks for telling me that. :cheers:

 

np :)
