PB finally a 10!

[KiLLjOY47]

Third pass on the car and its in the 10s (barely)! The first outing and first pass I managed 11.1 @ 125. Second pass I damaged some things in the diff. Bent both front diff bolts on the BMR inserts, severe vibration and clunk from rear diff when changing gears. Fast forward 7 weeks after repairs of diff and evap core leaking as well as adding an ice tank in the trunk, I managed a 10.929 @ 129.4 on the first pass of the night. Slick sway ended my second run early as well as the rest of night. (time for a wider wheel) I should be able to squeak a bit more once we get some better weather!

M6: Whipple Cal (non-flight control) : 55lb injectors : 3.75 pulley : CJPP Springs : Runners & Slicks : BMR Cradle Lockout : Tig-Vision Ice Tank : Steeda short shifter : 4090lbs

Using the factory "RPM hold" not the full launch control so its only 4500 lol doesn't quite like side stepping the clutch

Great job. What tire you running

28x10x17 Hoosier Slick on 17x8 GT wheels

If you get wider wheels your sway should be good. I was running those tires on a 17x8 with the stock wheel on the front it was all over the place. I went to the race star 17x9 and hoosier skinnies on the front and it was a huge difference. the car tracks straight now even with as little as 13lbs in the slicks.

You bent both front diff bolts with slicks also or on Drag radials? Was curious because I will be launching at the track with a blower sometime in the future.

And Nice time.

It was the bolts using the gen1 BMR inserts and yes I was on slicks not radial. I am now using the stock bolts with no inserts

Interesting, I'm wondering if anyone has had similar issues with the Steeda Bushing Inserts. I currently have those and am wondering if I should maybe remove them after I go blower because of this possibly happening on a hard launch.
