what a weekend! after battle'ing through my C4 woes, I still made it down to PINKS ALL OUT @ MIR. got their wed around 10am and was car #27. over 400 cars were at the event and it was a blast! Jason (TRBO VNM) chilled w/ us both days (thanks again man!) through the sun and rain. Friday was a "test and tune" but were still called up by class. only got to make 2 runs from 9am till we left around 8pm. first one was at 230pm and according to DragTimes.com, temp was 82.4, humidity was 58% and the DA was 2000ft!!
IC water temp was 100 when I started my burnout, engine was about 160.
1.46 6.63 @ 104.19 10.41 @ 129.48
no ice, anti roll bar just set to zero preload, front AND rear shocks full loose w/ 12.25psi in the tires
got to make my second pass at 630pm. all I did was add some ice at the trailer (which was gone in 2 minutes) and dropped the tires to 12psi. the temp was still 82.4 but the humidity was up to 62% which made the DA 2031ft.
IC water temp was 90 when I started my burnout and again engine was about 160.
1.44! 6.59 @ 104.44! 10.36 @ 130.35
matched my best on a cool night at home in the heat at MIR! was very happy to say the least.
got to the track saturday around 9am only to have rian delays till about 2pm. finally the sun came out and we got to business.
I didnt even TOUCH my car. put the tires at 11.75 and added alot of ice. even added more in the lanes this time. was much warmer out. temp was 87.8 and humidity was 52% making the DA 2649ft!!!!
IC water temp was 80 when I started my burnout and engine was right about 160 again.
ready for this....eaton car...no nitrous....
1.42!!!! 6.57 @ 105.17!!!! but then down out the back door to a 10.36 @ 129.08
holy crap right???!?! not sure whats going on on the back half. Im thinking the converter is too loose. might go back to my local track one more time to try a few things. but Im deff getting somewhere in 85+ degree temps I think and no suspension setup.
Ill have some vids up tomorrow I hope and more pics. Here are a couple PINKS took
