First time w/ L at track

Took the L to the track tonight and had a blast!!

best time of 8.3074 @ 84.05 with a 1.9269 60ft. I wanted so bad to hit a 8.2 but I kept hiten that 8.3. Next time I will be hitting the 7's for sure. (I have wanted to hit a 7 for like EVER) I need to put on a 4lb lower before I spray though, only a 50 -75 shot. All in all the L ran good and had a blast!!!


so is it safe to say a 8.2ish - 8.3 will hit a high 12

Hard to say for sure, YOUR REAL CLOSE, I'll give it a 12.9
So what the heck
WELCOME TO THE


Don't have any 12.9's to compare to but
1.90 60ft (F-1's) 8.264 1/8 @ 85.457 MPH
Equaled a -->12.82@106.47

Your there power wise, "the MPH is there".
Example my 12.7 + 12.8 below only have 1/8 MPH of 83.X
YOU RAN A FASTER MPH 1/8th

1.75 60ft (hoosiers) 8.050 1/8 @ 83.92 MPH
Equaled a --> 12.766 @ 103.46

1.78 60ft (hoosiers) 8.118 1/8 @83.52 MPH
Equaled a --> 12.850 @ 103.55 MPH

The reason my MPH is slower on these two compared
to the Top one is YOU GUESSED IT --->TIMING
Laugh all you want, but it's true
Upper 12.82 was using a 17 degree program
The bottom two are using the 16 degree Nitrous Program
WITH NO NITOUS

I still have no ET'S using my 1yr old 18 degree program,
Was too involved in test and tuning diff Nitrous Timing
Programs and having too much fun running
12.5/12.3/12.2/(2)12.0's/11.81 with Juice last season
to try out the 18 Degree Program on the track. I never
once tried to go for a Best Gasoline ET. But I did
do back to back runs using my current 16 degree Nitrous
Program with and without juice to prove it can take
a full sec off, IT CAN.

This Season I will have better Et's in both
WASP + 58" BARS + FTVB + You Guessed it
--> MORE TIMING <--

I think your in my Brother
