I ran the SS again last night...the track prep was terrible once again. They don't prep the track on Wednesday nights because they don't get enough business to warrant prep.

Anyways, I ran a 13.34 @ 109.7 spinning badly into 2nd and 3rd. This was with an 8.8 @ 86.0 in the 1/8. On another run, I trapped 86.5 in the 1/8 which would have been 110 mph, but I missed 4th. I still ran a 13.3 @ 105 on this pass.

The DA was 2700'. I can't wait until cooler weather, slicks and a prepped track.

 

Sounds like you are enjoying your new LS1 toy more than the LT1 already. Wish I could trade up..

 

I replied to your post in LS1 Tech, but it got closed...

...anyway, good run.....just need to get your 60' time down below 2.0's, and with the MPH your car ran, you should be set for 12's (I'm cutting consistant 13.0's at around ~106 - 107, 1.9xx 60' times, so running through at ~109 - 110, your car should be into the 12's ).

 

109.7 mph is huge mph for a 13.3 ET. Traction must have been non-existant the way you described.

 

6-speeds do tend to trap alot higher than auto's though. I ran a 13.6 @ 107 bonestock, but it was on a 2.53 60'.

 

Ouch! Take .5 seconds off your 60' time as it should be, and you've got a 13.1 right there. I don't think the whole "2 tenths in the 1/4 for every 1 tenth in the 60' " rule would truly apply though.....although it would be nice!

 

yeah it was on stock tires. I'm cutting 1.9's on my potenza's now though. Haven't gotten to run the quarter again though. Running low 8's in the eighth mile.

 

97bowtie, Get that car to hook,and your looking at some vast improvments as far as your et's are concerned.
