went down to gainsville raceways yesterday, met some other lightning guys there too...i was a little dissapointed in my run though...i just got my truck tuned, and my best ruyn of the day looke like this...

reaction: .207
60ft: 1.870
330ft: 5.302
ET @594 FT: 7.630
1/8 ET: 8.158
1/8 MPH: 85.21
1/4 ET: 12.80
1/4 MPH: 105.7

i really though i might atleast break into the 7's in the 1/8 and maybe cut a 12.60 or so..launch was good at aroudn 1500...do you think my times was about right for what mods i have?

congrats on the times, and welcome to the 12 second club.

a KB at 15psi i would expect at least 12.4's or faster.

 

shane...what are your mods? it says in your sig , chip filter pulley 12.6...is thay all you have? i was on slicks and just spent a crap load of $$ on the KB and was dissapointed not to see a mid 12

 

???? Weather conditions can play an important part in et 1/8 or 1/4 mile runs tempature humitity lots of things can effect it with what you described as your mods i don't think you made to bad a run unless i missed it somewhere i did not see in your post anything about pulleys???just my .02 worth.

 

wow with a KB at 15 psi you should be much faster then that.. not even your MPH are refelecting the KB??

I have 6# pulley, chip, Intake and run 12.6@107mph on my slicks and 12.8@106 mph on my F1's.

What is your elevation and how was the weather?

 

Congrats

 

it was at Gainsville Raceways, in gainsville florida, it was about 70 degresse when i ran..not to sure how humid it was..

 

It was good meeting you man. I guess you never did get a second run in then did you? Congrats on the 12 second time as you were a lot faster than myself. I might come back to Gainesville this coming saturday as well...to get some more practice. Hopefully it won't be quite as busy and "oily".

 

First,id like to welcom you to the 12 sec club.But i really think that you still have some power hidden in there.Your times seem a little low as does your trap speed.Do you have headers or any kind of exaust?I mean 15 lbs would seem to be a little too much without the exhaust and headers and youll probably pick up some power and torque which would help your times.Maybe you should talk to you tunerthough and get a dyno tune or something like that.But hey still have to be happy with 12s and you could only go faster.

CONGRATS LEO AND WELCOME TO THE




I'd agree that there is A TON MORE in it.
You all know what I'm gonna say right HEHEHEHE
YOU NEED MORE TIMING
Ask you tuner what timing you have and I bet it's all the way back to stock timing or 2 degrees or so advanced.

CONGRATS BRO, but rest assure your leaving AT LEAST 1 full second of ET on the table. You got a beast in the making there.

For comparison purposes, I run 12.7's with a filter chip n 4 lb pulley on a stock Eaton, stock tranny, stock suspension, stock exhuast, and no electric fans, cobra pump, cooling mods, etc....
Even got me a 12.8 on F-1's, hit the switch and it's an 11.8 with 75 HP of Juice. You should be in the 11's with a KB, especially with that kind of boost. That MORE than makes up for 75HP of Nitrous. Get a re-burn on the chip, AND YOU WILL BE

 

My fault i also have a 6# pully

 

Try another day. Maybe 60 degrees or less.
Cool the motor. Ice the intake.
Give it another shot. Your times will improve.

i actually just gone done tuneing my truck with the KB on it....i dont have an electric fan or pump..or traction bars.stock exhaust exept for straight pipes...this week im prolly buying t-bars, and getting a full exhaust from somebody, along with a e-fan and maybe a reburn from somwhere else...

 

Perfect example of how to spend several thousand dollars with minimal results.
