Ran 11.641 @ 101.90 fuel pump went bad
First pass at Texas Motorplex started out good but into 3rd gear above 6 grand started losing power
and ET started going away. Anyway the results are as follows:
DA 2181
R/T: .735
60': 1.725
330': 4.804
1/8: 7.304
MPH: 98.05
1000': 9.555
1/4: 11.641
MPH: 101.90
Well it's back to the dealer. Checked relay's and fuses all appeared good, cranked engine and pressed schrader valve in fuel rail, nothing, nada zip. Anyone else experienced fuel issues? Run only Chevron Premium. Car cranked but wouldn't start.
Anyway I will leave it to the tech's to find the problem. Will advise when I hear from service Manager. My best 60' and lost power, darn it
Also forgot to turn off T/C.

Nice! Too bad the car crapped out on that pass. Was that on the F1's?

Drag Radial's
DR's. @ 20 psi. That was my 5th pass ever in this Z, between breakage and getting booted I will never get any seat time
And she was really pulling too, right TNTZ06?
Wasn't a total loss, I got to meet a Forum Member and gained a new friend
Enjoyed it Travis

I could tell from behind how it was pulling
!
I'm glad you made it back O.K., get that Z back running for the (hopefully) good weather to come. Maybe Dallas will be open one more time before years end.
BTW, humidity@ 9:00 PM in Dallas last night was 80%, the night before at the same time was 22%
!!!! I just can't seem to win, the DA gods hate me LOL.

Did they not just work on the diff? There is a ground wire in the wheelwell on the drivers side, 10mm nut....it's loose. That wire had to come off to get the thing apart, it needs to be checked. Go look yourself and then tell them when u see it loose
