10.90 @ 121 pump gas, stock motor, bad driver.

I kept trying different things to see what the car wanted. I got a couple good data logs and figured out a lot of info. Something went wrong on every pass i made and I'm still having boost control issues (but i know how to fix them now). The last pass i made was the best but i forgot to take my finger off the two step button so i hit the rev limiter in each gear . A few adjustments and a little more seat time and 10.7 on pump won't be a problem . The transmission is pure sex and the car handled flawlessly. Next weekend C16 goes in the tank and we will se what she can really do .


The one pass that i ran the white mustang would have been in the 10.8 zone had i not rolled trough the lights .

Yeah, he had other things on his mind. I guess it's had to film with a hard on.

Thanks Ito. It's great the amount of attention the car gets. Every time i stopped someone would come up and ask about the car. At one point a guy sprinted from the food line to yell at the top of his lungs "i love your ******* car". It was a great day overall. I hope next weekend turns out as good.

Watching the video, was the car bogging a little bit or spinning the tires ?

Have you got the suspension dialed in pretty well ?

One pass there was a lot of water on the track and it spun bad off the line and in second and third. The rest of the passes (without going into great detail) the car would launch and then the boost would oscillate until it hit the target boost. It would launch and then the boost would drop and begin to climb.

The car hooked flawlessly and went string straight, i have no reservations about running C16 in it now!!!

That car is begging for some more boost and methanol!
