Been hunting for a 9 forever. Wasn't happening today. Broke on the first pass.

I'll post the slip tomorrow.

10.12 @ 145.5 MPH with 1.8 60'

Whipple on C-85 at Tulsa today.
Dam man nice mph,what s up with the 60ft??If u knock that down to a 1.5 your looking at a mid 9 sec pass.

Car's best 60' was 1.56 (10.27 @ 139). I've always been working towards a 1.4 anything would get me a 9. So yeah...Had I been able to run a 1.4 on that pass, it'd have been mid to low 9 second pass...

DA was ~1200'. Between the air and the good gas, that's all I can attribute it to.

Not yet. It drove on the trailer and drove off the trailer. When I got back to the pits it smelled like brakes/clutch. A guy walked up and told me when I did a burn out that only one wheel spun...so maybe the diff?

I shook the tires pretty damn hard off the line (always does)...so maybe something broken then?

Man I was looking at that time thinking your car runs almost identical to mine (10.28 @138), then I realized yours is an auto. 145mph you should be solidly into the 9's. Something is off with your setup.

It's never not shook the tires on a pass. It's never not spun on a pass. So yeah. Until I figure that out...

What type of tires are you running? how is the track prep? What stall do you have?
MT Pro R's in a 345/45/17 I believe. I've tried everything from 12.5lb to 25lb. Doesn't affect things at all. Next year I'll probably switch over to a 275/60-15 if I do anything with the car at all.

Track prep locally is garbage which is why I went to Tulsa. Tulsa seemed to be where it's at.

Converter is a Circle D 2c 258mm. With the PD blower, should be 2800-3200.
