went to robz's rental today @ atco and was dailing in my car.
anyway i ran with nitto DR and on my first three passes. i was able to go 10.03@141.23 this was just coming off the foot brake. boost was 13psi. run wasnt with out issue though......the tps closed 3 times during the run... 40% 60% and 61% during the run!! this events were happening during shifts. the afrs were also in the mid low 9's w/even the littlest bit of alky. i was unable to figure out why my car was during this today.....julio from cartek looked at my tune as the MASTER abuse was disabled but tables below it werent. my logs show that i am not hitting the rev limiter but during every shift the car totally lays over....

after that run i put on ccw drag pac rears only and was then leaving the line on the RPMS T-BRAKE. i turned the boost up a little...14.5 and was able to 9.80 @ 144.76. this run too was having tps issues. arun and mitymike both said that the car sounds funny during shifts.
its weird cause i know what it feels like when bouncing off the rev limiter and this isnt anything like it. what it feels like it exaclty what its doing ...totally laying over then it lights back up.
i played with some more shift settings and on the next run i held the RPM T-BRAKE to 2300...OMG!!! i thought my head was going to get ripped off! the run felt awesome untit it layed over during the shifts...i abortated the run but was able to still run a 9.90 @ 116 mph!!!
my 60ft was a FUKKING 1.355!!!! oh yeah the 1/8 mph was 113.31!!!! i was sooooooooooooo bummed.....this run woulda been insane.

i learning..........
i need to find out why its closing the throttle during shifts!!

 

julio?....hmm......good job homie. ..thanks for calling me back...j/k...congrats buddy

 

WOW

Your making me miss my T-Braked F Body!

Nothing better then leavin on the brake!

Congrats on the runs, and 9.9's lettin out is stunning!

Good luck getting it figured out. Man 113 in the 1/8 is haulin the mail Bro!

Way to Go!

nick good seeing you today , your car is crazy .. well done

 

Lisa and yourself should be in Anguilla with us now, Nick.

Nice runs BTW without having it dead nuts yet.

 

1.355 60's ! ! I bet that was exhilerating

 

 

I only got to see your last run. It sounded exactly like you were rowing the gears, and a good job of it too!!!! (to bad it's an auto) That would have been a 9.7 easy with good shifts.

 

thats what i mean....the tps was closing down to 40% during shifts.....
then when it would open it made the car feel strange....it was unerving as if fule pressure was cut or dropping causing me to abort the run....
still a 9 seconds pass @ 116

 

 

Thats awesome. You will get it worked out. When you put it all together look out Your car is a beast

 

That is awesome Nice job on the single digit even with it laying down!

 

Congrats Nick. Rolling out the back door at near 145 on DR's is awesome. Time for a cage, chute, and slicks.

 

That's Movin' Nick! I've got Faith that you'll figure out the problem! I'll bet it just felt good to drive it!

 

thanks mark....
its not easy......i was running around non stop looking at logs and trying differant stuff.....i need to figure out why this yjing closes the throttle....its an unerving ....its has that "oh sh*t" feeling...
i wish someone took a pic of that 1.355...front wheels must have been showing some daylight.
my goal when building this car was to make the ultimate street car...
mark, i'd love to give u a ride in it...the part throttle trq is retarted

 

 

And you call yourself a supertoooner

 

9.9 run @ 116 60ft 1.355

if i can get the afrs right......(alky issue), stall to lock and tps to stay 100% during shifts it might be very low 9s

 

well tell me.......

the conveter will not lock up as commanded.....disabled misfire got the apply mph higher then release ect....i starting to think that there are other areas that hp tuners hasnt cravcked that control the lock up...

i got the actual afr and commanded dead on...but when introdocing even the smallest amount of alky it goes inconsitannt as seen above.

 

Sounds like some serious torque happening there... Nick.....

Once you get it dialed in.....OMFG...
