So I took a trip to Milan Dragway today to try to pin a sub 13 1/4 mile and I only managed a 13.1442. The track sucked, it sprinkled rain on and off, and it was only 40 degrees by the time we got rained out. I couldn't get much better than a 2.1 - 2.2 60ft.
Some of you may think a 13.1 is not bad, but I ran on a 2.8 pulley with all supporting mods and no kr. 12's should be relatively easy at this point.
Last season, I pinned a 13.2 on a 3.3 pulley with stock tires, stock tb without the full size intercooler. And although my 60 ft times were not as good as I wanted, I should have still been in the 12's.
I upgraded from a weak stock fuel pump to a racetronix. I'm guessing I'm probably pig rich now that I have the proper fueling. (I tuned the car on a weak pump with a dropping fuel curve) And we commanded more fuel than the pump was able to provide. guess It's time for another tune because I'm losing a lot of power somewhere. On the bright side, I'm trapping 105-106 consistently, and my pb trap speed was almost 107 (on average 3mph better) than last season. Maybe I will see 108's or more after tuning
I wish I could have done better, but the power is definitely there... Looks like its time to hook her up to a laptop and find where those horses are hiding. Wish me luck
