? for ya, i put some unleaded 104 in my truck and was playin with it like a kid with a new toy. on position 2 everytime the truck shifts i lose boost. then i have to restart it and its there again. Do i need to unplug the actuator or is it somethin else???

 

Johnny is in Ohio this weekend,at the races,
my guess is that he will be back tomorrow.

Sounds like you're hitting the rev limiter. It only holds it out for a little while but it will come back without having to shut it off.

Unplug it next time at the track... It's the accuator because mine did the same thing... Unpluging it will not throw a light on but if you take it in for service replug it in...

Later, Justin

 

Yep, that's correct. I was there with him and left before it was completely over with, but he was kickin' butt and takin' names with the fastest L there. He should be back home tomorrow.

Everybody was off their mark this weekend! The track conditions sucked. The air did too! I went from a 1.91 60ft a week 1/2 ago to a best 2.05 with the average being 2.11 on the F1s. I got booted first round by a guy from NY with a gen1 L. I left before Johnny ran the second round. Hope he did well! Josh

Hey Josh,

It was good meeting you! I guess you and I ran pretty good afterall, all things considered. I fully expected a 12 second truck and didn't get it. It was bittersweet for me to see the '01's run @ 14.15. So, I guess ours aren't too wimpy afterall. I ran consistent 2.03's and .500 lights before I got mad about the 13.5's and parked it early Saturday. Shoulda kept going I guess from the looks of it.

Yes, JL was doing good. Noboby could touch him. I'm sure he won.

PS. BTW, your Bassani headers and Borla cat-back sounded A+, even though it was expensive.

John had a low .400 light first round! He ran close to his index too. I ended up losing with a .073 margin. My L was'nt running good through the first eighth mile, seemed like it almost bogged coming out of the whole. It picked up on the big end though! I almost caught him!The truck was only boostin around 10psi through 1st and 2nd and then in 3rd it went on up to 11.5. My L usually gets the highest boost in the top of second! After driving it tonight it seems to have a miss.Considering the only worth wile mods on the truck were the meter and pulley it did run decent in the horrible air! Josh

 

he did win i made it to the finals and had a .800 light to his .500 light if not for the light i may have had him, but we all had fun and finally got to meet one of the nicest guys (and his wife) i've ever meet. can't wait til mid michigan (stanton) to meet up with him again
