60-130mph times for boosted cars

[Kona 18]

Any idea why the low timing? 100* is hot but I'm just curious/asking as it's lower than I see at similar temps. Positive knock?

I'm in the middle of testing the fuel system I just installed so I have it set to low timing for now, once I go e85 I should be in the 20-21* range. Before the fuel system I ran about 15* of timing with that same combo, I just don't have any data that includes a 60-130 pull...

Cool, thanks for letting me know. That makes sense I'm always curious about peoples timing. With knock sensors and gas quality varying so much it always is interesting to see what people are seeing and why.

I did a 6.7 in my Whipple manual 17. I started in 3rd a little under 60. 3.73 rear gear as well. Maybe with DR's on and a good 2nd gear start I could do a little better. Haven't tried yet. Shifting gears really hurts the time ...lol..car is 3.6 pulley and pump gas.

That's insane fast. Well done! Must be about 950+whp?

I think thats around 1050+whp.

Yeah that's sick! I'm on the 3.3 pulley and low 800's and am doing 5.7 with the MT82

Very bad shift but not a bad time considering.

Stock motor, 12 psi in 2nd and turned up to 15 psi in 3rd and 4th. This was on the street, not track.

Incredible! Ever measure 0-60? Curious what it was

Here is one from today. Need to run it again on a flat road and not a positive slope and see how it
Improves. Shifting it soft also to keep the MT82 alive.
‘15 car, D1@13 psi, e85.

ET Street R's is how. 23psi cold pressure for the street. I roll from about 40 in 3rd which is around 3200rpm then I punch it.

I do fine from a 50 roll prob even a 40 roll since I just roll into power rather than stabbing the throttle in 2nd.

800+ centri setup, 2nd gear, 20psi cold MT S/S, and roll into power.

Theres a reason we're talking about 60-130 and not 0-60 from a dig lol. As said above you can't just stab the throttle but if you ease into it you'll be ok. Proper suspension helps a ton. I'm running MPSS street tires and can get traction in the top of 2nd on a hot day, 3rd otherwise. Drag radials will be the best bet though

Suspension, Check (Full Steeda HPDE), Tires, almost check, MP4S 285/30/20 front 315/30/20 rear. Traction from 50 in "Normal" mode (A10) with TC off AT on, exactly 0. LOL. It's crazy. But, I love it.

Going to get a DR setup very soon.
