Pumpgas PB today

Went out to e-town with my GTA today, first time scince the Pinks Last Chance race in May of 2008. Pretty much dusted her off, changed the oil, and went racing.

Ran on straight Shell 93 octane with no additives/not spraying anything. 18 psi boost with easy launch on the first pass and more agressive launches on the rest.

1st pass - 1.705 60ft, 7.238 @ 96.12mph 1/8th, 11.325 @ 120.08mph
2nd pass - 1.509 60ft, 6.989 @ 96.64mph 1/8th, 11.068 @ 120.17mph
3rd pass - 1.541 60ft, 7.040 @ 96.31mph 1/8th, 11.131 @ 119.85mph
4th pass - 1.651 60ft, 7.165 @ 96.37mph 1/8th, 11.249 @ 120.16mph

4th pass was first round, I was dialed 11.14 but messed up the burnout and spun at the hit. I knew I had lost right there but it was still close, other guy had an .071 light to my .083 and went 11.37 on an 11.30 dial. MOV was 0.0494

But I was very happy to see an 11.0 on straight pumpgas street trim with a very safe fat tune. Also the 6.98 second 1/8th gave me hopes of trying for a 10.99 with a little more agressive tune but I decided to dial it down in the hopes for consistency.

Snapped a pic at the Wawa parking lot on the way home - all in all a good day

Re: Pumpgas PB today

Thanks guys didnt snap any pics of the motor but still the same motor I put in back in 2001, in fact the only thing thats changed scince it went in was the TE64-1 and 55# injectors were replaced with a CCH-70 and 83# injectors. The motors got at least 600 passes on it and I keep saying I want to pull it to install the forged Eagle crank/rods I have sitting in the closet but never seem to get around to it.

I can only wish for those times with mine....should I ever get this turd to the track!

I can't believe you're doing on 18 PSI, that's truly some tuning!

Good for you!!!!

Will do, hopefully I'll get out to the beach soon. Got #850 just about cleaned up and ready to go and may take her out for a ride tomorrow night if the weather is nice but have been real busy getting #124 ready for the tour in June
