I run 3.42's and a CCW drag pack. This year I have MT ET Street radials 315/45/16. Last year I ran the ET Street bias blys 26x11.5x16. The 1" taller tire gives some breathing room up top, so now it's about 5mph faster at the same RPM. 6900 is about 150mph now, it used to be about 145mph. The bigger tire (27.2") ate up a fender liner though, I think it happened on the launch...

I wonder what it's going to run on 23 psi?

Any idea on what size meth nozzle you are using? Are you still single nozzle or did you go to dual nozzles?

As far as the injector duty cycle goes, if you spray enough meth it becomes the additional fuel and you don't have to inject as much gasoline which in turn lowers the IDC. Rule of thumb is to have atleast 30% of your fuel be methanol.
Yeah I'd like to know too. The air was not very good, with thunderstorms nearby. It could use better air, more boost, and some suspension work. I have stock shocks (they are getting soft) and the front sway bar was in. 3/4 tank of gas, lol I wasn't really looking for a record that day.

Single meth nozzle, whatever comes with the standard ECS kit. It's tuned with the controller on 3, but I bumped it to 6 on the last run.

Nice, getting it done on a radial now. Is the car lowered at all or was it stock ride height in the rear?

It's at stock ride height, never been changed. I do like the radials they ride alot better.

That's a good idea, pull the liners. Do you put any covering in there to keep it clean? On the street these never rubbed, but the launch hit pretty hard. I'd like to goto BG, but its 2500 miles each way.

The tuner Dr Phil says that was pushing it on pump gas. Next time I'll plan ahead and use race gas. Good advice, I don't wanna blow up again anytime soon.

Freakin car is NASTY!

Imagine once you get the 60' down where it should be.... That thing will run 9.20s-.30s@150 with a good 60'.... Need to get it in the high 1.30s..

You've done a great job with that car... I can't wait to do the auto conversion on mine...

The scanner showed 16 degrees timing. Yeah I need to get the rear suspension to not bottom out from the launch, because it kinda bounces and spins as it rebounds.
