Told not to spray past the 1/8th

[Daniel Linnett]

Betty went to the track last night with a little bit cooler temps then her last time out. This time she also went to ThunderRoad Raceway way in Gilliam/Shreveport which is a 1/4 mile track. Her first pass of the night was all motor just for a shake down as she had not been down that track yet. After the warm up lap the bottle was turned on and a pass was made to see how to best launch on the 150 shot. After badly spinning the first pass another pass was made. Went to pick up the slip and was asked if Nitrous was used. "Don't spray past the 1/8th, put a smaller jet in or run NA" Why?? because if you are going to go 11.3 you need a cage :banghead: Well I guess each time to the track I will get one nitrous pass before being told to stop.

11.3 at 119 I will post the slip once I find it.

Once we put better tires on and can drop that 60' down from 1.8 we just might break into the 10s

119mph WEAK!!!!!!! LOL.

makes me sad that I run higher mph but am soooo much slower. :(

Dont worry Jimmy I think their timing system was having issues. My ET was consistant with the other track in the area but the MPH was way off. To give you an idea it said I ran a 12.3 @105 on motor. Is that even possible lol. I was checking the other board for cars with similiar mods and the trap speeds were around 110-114 and on 150 shot were at 121-125. That is still alot slower than your traps though. Got to love a Stalled Built 04. I would beat you at the track but you would demolish me on the street!


Here is the slip numbers

Reaction Time .052
60' 1.74
330 4.71
1/8 ET 7.34
1/8 MPH 95.46
1000' 9.50
1/4 ET 11.38
1/4 MPH 119.47

At ThunderRoad in Gilliam/Shreveport

Car was shifting slowly, need to speed up and firm up shifts via hp tuners

12.3 @ 105 is definately possible, you must be getting out of the hole hard. I ran consistant 12.5 @ 106 in my old Z28.

[Daniel Linnett]

Yeah i guess it is possible. I just remember with my cam only setup on my m6 i was trapping 111

I just find it hard to believe a head cam full bolt on stalled auto would only run 105

Yeah my camaro was a bolt on/Stalled auto, the stall eats up alot of mph but makes for great ET's.

My GTO would run that consistently at Temple, actually 12.44 @ 105-106. That was what I ran there ALL the time in the summer. 12.28 ALL the time @ 108-109 when it was cooler.

[SLO GTO]

I ran 12.7 @ 73 the other night....I just brake after the 1/8th.

I'm hesitant to put a cage in

Yeah I might just do the same, balls to the wall in the 1/8th and then let out. And then extrapolate the numbers from the 1/8th to 1/4 conversion calc. It has been spot on with my numbers so far.

[BoostedGTO]

One of these days I will be back and get to enjoy the track again...14's here we come...

[Jay GTO]

That's nothing, i was at a local track and i traped at 120 MPH @13.6 LOL!
