Is it stumbling down the track at all or does it feel like it's pulling strong throughout the runs? Also, I assume you're running DRs or slicks with those Bogarts so those 60' times leave something to be desired...
Well, your mph seems down from your previous times, BUT, your 60fts are horrible too. You said you are using new wheels, if the tires were also new, then using them for the first time brings out all the oils and such. If this was the first time using them, they should work better next time out.
It seeed to pull good seems like it was spinning through the tires though. Im running ET streets at 17 psi the have 7 pass's on them tonigh was the firt time I used them though. Too me it seems like my mPH sucks witch tells me the truck isnt making much power. also the temp was 63 with humidity at 73
That is why I went to cruise night tonight instead of Racing. I figured and the tracks are VERY green with all the rain.
I definately would not put that much into tonight. Go back one more time (under better conditions) and see what happens, then call Jim, so you can give him the most info possible for the best tune.
Or better yet . Go to JDMs for the dyno.
