TMP on sat
 
Went to TMP on sat the weather was alsome track was pretty good.
I had a bit of a wheel spin out of the hole, still managed a 1.36 short time and ran a 9.27 @ 146. with only a 70 hp shot. I'm happy cus the car went straight with the new ladder bar suspention. :headbang:

Just an update, made some adjustments to my ladder bars, got the car to hook alot better, and with the same 70 hp shot, I got the car to run 8.98 @ 149.66.
My first time in the 8's

Ok, ernie, I am not being a smart ass here, just trying to help you out. Your 9.27 is a great time, but your 60' time sucks. I think you need some work on the ladder bars and maybe reduce your tire pressure some. Another thing to try is if you are spraying out of the hole,wait till you are rolling to stop the tire spin. I have seen some of your set up, it looks great. With a bit of playing, you will get a 1.2 60' and and a 9.15.

Thanks but I guess you didn't read what i wrote yesterday, I got the car to run a 8.98 at 149.66. And I got a 1.30 60' time. the track isn't there, all the big power car were spining. And yes I'm hitting it out of the hole, If you wait till you role your too late, I'm using NOS new progressive launcher. I dialed it down a bit and was get 1.30. On a good day i had the car deep in the 1.20. As far as tire pressure it was too low i had to bump it back up to 9.5 lbs. I also built the engine to be a nitrous engine, I will be feeding it a 500 shot later this year. I should be running low 8's. I was only running a 70 shot to help me set my suspention up.
oh you said you seen my car? What car are you driving?

Very nice times.

I saw it from pictures you posted. I am driving a 90 lx trunk. You haven't seen it yet. Waiting on a turbo to come. Will only be running 7psi and a 100 shot of NOS. Hoping for low 11's high 10's. Want to keep mine stock looking as I drive it on the weekends. Don't want johnny law to see too many add ons and yank me for racing.
