Spinning to a 10.33

[bluebeastsrt]

Maybe, maybe not? I've only made sbout 10 passes on the SC. All of the clean passes were 10.4s pre 18 manifold. And in positive DA. So I'd just like one clean pass before the end of the season. To see what she'll really do. On one of thosr -1500 da nights. If it only runs 10.3. im cool with that. Im not willing to do any weight reduction. Or run skinnies to lower the time. I am considering a little suspension. But that can wait. This year I just want to run it exactly as it would race on rhe street.

Front runners? Helps. I came close to seeing a little air on stock stall last winter. Going back when it cools down.

Not currently. I ran front runners when I was on the 28" tall tires, as they were bias ply from when I was manual. Right now I just have the rear ET-Street R radials. It's consistent, 1.7 over and over. just needs a little more rpm.

Update. Got one run in at Atco today. Improved the time. Still knocking off the tires on the 1-2 shift. Im going to try a 4 wheel alignment. I installed Steeda's stop the hop kit. When the supercharger was installed. Maybe something's out of wack. Anyway shes a 10.2 car this year. Ill hit it again next spring. Ill probably do some viking shocks. And bmr springs this winter.

stock converter? what tire and how old are they? Did you log that pass?

 

[bluebeastsrt]

CD 4c converter, NtO5r. Didn't log. Probably should have. Lund asked for a strip log. I decided to fix the spinning issue first. so I can get them a clean log. But like i said. ill work on that next spring.

I don’t know. I’m done for the year so I have all winter to figure it out. Tires would be the last thing I would change though. I’ve run both MT and nittos. And my personal experience is they perform about the same. It’s all part of the process though. The nice thing is. I’m not chasing a number in this car. Like I did in the 95. So I’m totally happy with a 10.2 in the first 10 passes on the new set up.

Bluebeast i went back sunday with the mt ss 305/45/17 and hit a 1.40 60.ft and ran a 9.7.The Mt sit a good bit wider then the nittos,I have also ran both and the mickys in 17 in tire are a better tire.I really think they would help u,it was cold here yesterday and mt ss hooked great,i will post the slip soon.

These things only have about 15 or 20 passes on em. I doubt they’ll last long. I keep them mounted year around for street duty. I can swap out next fall after these wear out. 1.40sixty is killer.

Spinning to a low 10. Hit atco tonight. As usual. Prep sucked. Best run of the night was a 10.33@135. Just got my 18 manifold installed. And was doing some data logs for Lund. The run pictured had a 10.1 written all over it. Til I blew the tires off on the 1-2 shift. Think im going to try cecil county. Before the season is over. Not having much luck with Atco this year. The car feels like a monster with the 18 mani.

that thing moves out pretty well!!
