    Default Ok so my car is a 13 second car now........

    Went back to the track yesterday for Import Faceoff and got some better times. Before my best was a 14.2@99mph 2.2 60ft.


    Today was 13.4@104 2.1 60Ft. Pretty much seems like i dropped almost 8 tenths of a second just due to being able to rev higher. 60fts were almost identical. With the valvetrain i can finish the 1/4 in 3rd gear so i eliminate the 3rd to 4th shift and that really made a difference.

    I was running 24.5 slicks and it was just too much. I launched at 8000, 7000, 5500 it didnt matter, it would dead hook and my car would fall on its face in 1st gear. I just dont make enough power to use slicks that big so ill have to go down to some 22s.

    All in all i was happy, my trap was as high as 106mph, so i think im in the 12s territory with proper tires, chassis setup.

    Still think i sandbag?
