Little tweaks...
Did a few little tweaks to the chip for this weekends events and yielded some new bests.
The weather was also comparable to the frist time we went out earlier in the season , with DAs around 800-1000 ft.
I yielded new best ETs in both the 1/8 mile, and 1/4.
Here is breakdown of my slips.
R/T .523
60 1.519 (blahhh where was my 1.4x, from the last week)
330 4.517
1/8 7.038 (New Best!)
MPH 96.42
1000 9.238
1/4 11.11sec ( New Best!)
MPH 121.21
Well if I could have put the 60' together with the big end yesterday I would have been really knocking on 10s door. Just couldn't get it though. Surprising as the guys that were with me, watching me in the eliminations, said without a doubt I am carrying both front tires off the ground about 4", and out about 3-4 ft. But still I feel it slipping a little here and there.
We'll get it, it only a matter of time before I get this monkey off my back. I KNOW a converter change to about 3800-4200 RPM would put me there instantly. Corkvette1 upgraded his and is yeilding some UNREAL 60' times. And also some ungodly ETs yesterday. I will let him break the news to you all though
It was a great day of racing, went 3 rounds to be just edged out, before I got into the big money. Still came home with some cash winnings, in an otherwise VERY tough field.
