So close yet so far away......

Started off with a 1.471 sixty ft ran 107.70 in the 1/8th (a new best fow now) and ran 10.094 @ 134.63

Let it cool and went back up and cut a 1.515 sixty ft, ran 106.99 in the 1/8th and short shifted third and went 10.218 @ 134.06......how do you short shift an automatic you ask????? well I've had some issues with my T-com going from first to third so I programmed the t-com to shift 1/2 at 6400 and shifted the 2/3 manually.

Tried a different launch technique and quickly learned that it didn't work.

1.624 sixty ft, 106.93 in the 1/8th and 10.373 @ 134.52

Now back to what I know works.....

1.446 sixty ft, 108.15 in the 1/8th and........

There's gotta be something you can mess with to get the last .05 sec out of it, maybe some better air will help you. Oh, and update that sig Nice runs!

Still running my old venerable 4L60E.

On my last two passes it ran 6.425 (on both passes) and as I mentioned before the speed was 108ish.

MN, I hear ya.

I'll update the sig when the spirit moves me

Temp was in the high 60's.

These times were run with FLP dual cats on the car (and not hogged out either), also running stock salad shooters up front.
