Went to Rock Falls, WI yesterday for their muscle car races. Temps were in the 90's with high humidity. This is the first time I ran the car with 4.10's, headers, and exhaust.
I was running consistent 14.5's all day. So consistent, I ended up winning my class. Took home a nice sized trophy. My last 4 reaction times were .111, .030, .015, .039.
My best ET
Dial......14.50
RT.......0.030
60'......2.211
1/8......9.383
mph.....76.79
1/4......14.520
mph......90.89
I was beating a C3 corvette by about 3 car lengths, so I let off the gas the last 100 feet so I wouldn't break out. This run would easily have been a 14.4
2nd best ET, best mph
RT.......0.003
60'.......2.229
1/8......9.429
mph.....76.62
1/4......14.536
mph......96.77
This was more typical of my other time slips, right around 14.5 @ 96.X
I think I was losing a tenth or two during the 1-2 shift. My car would spin like mad shifting into second. I need some drag radials!
Last year in the same type of weather, my car would run lo 15's. I think that the 4.10's, headers and exhaust were good for about 7 tenths off my ET.
