Just got back from our local hillbilly infested 1/4 mile race track. Very cloudy day and I doubt the temp went above 57 degrees all day. I would have been great to get some sunshine to warm up the track. Probably the most poorly prepped track in existance. Overall I made 18 passes. Would do around 3-4 passes them cool down for a few (mabye 15-25 min breaks). Car ran pretty consistant on 10psi. First 3 runs my BFG drag radials were at roughly 35psi. Quickly lowered them to around 20 psi for a few runs then finalizing on 17psi for the rest of the event. I made one attempt to turn the boost up to around 12-13psi and that failed hard. Went up to 17psi and the car started to break up around middle of 2nd gear, I guess I wasnt watching my boost gauge! No harm though. Turned it back down and went back at it. It sure gave my crew a scare when I ran a 45mph pass!!
Great time for sure. Thanks to all that came out and wasted a cold Saturday at the track. You know who you are! Anyways heres my top 3 runs!! Not bad for stock head/block/clutch on 10psi... Only things I pulled out of the car were the backseat and spare tire/jack.
My 18 passes:
3 Best runs!
109mph! I was stoked about this.
Forgot my camera at home. So here is pictures afterwards! LOL.
Hoping to go to a much better track soon.
