Woulda-coulda-shoulda ..??
Guess I possibly blew off a 9 second pass to try to win a race...broke out anyway.
Ok you computer jockeys...what ya think? Here is slips for a qualify run plus break out run. RT's (4 tenth tree ?) & 60's sucked so don't look .  I catch my guy right at 1,000' and nailed brakes HARD..CHIT..  Check out MPH difference.. Always next year..right..

work on those 60's over the winter and you'll have easy 9's. Wish I had your mph. Mine goes 10.0 to 9.9 at 132.
Probablly would have been 10.0. I know with my car when I brake it will scub a lot of speed but not effect time as much as speed. |

Troy , It looks like your 1/8 mile correction is 1.55 for your car on that 10.25 run, so your 6.49 would've been 10.05 ?

troy what did your motor dyno at? werent you thinking of making a 535? i think you will have to run in the 630s in the 1/8 to get there and thats going to take some low 1.40 or high 1.3s. is it time for new tires?

Troy,
You are so close, but the 60' is still holding you back. I had a 1.390 60' with our 59, most are 1.430-1.450 range. Calvin Hill Hill Performance 708-250-7420 |

You're so close Troy. Looking at the 1/8th et you picked up .123 but mph was almost identical. That tells me it picked up most eveything between the 60' and 660'. Then looking a the 1000' times you were .136 faster so you picked up only another .013. You wouldn't have picked up hardly anything at all from the 1000 to the 1320, maybe a couple thousandths at most. So 10.254 - .136 = 10.018. You could definately get there with a better 60'. Looking at your sig you've been low 1.40's. That would definately do it if your 60' had been down there.

Damnit Troy! With you being a Senior Statesman to the ECM, you know our creed..."NEVER LIFT!!!" LOL
If you are going to make it to a good track before the end of the year, try and give it somemore power on the hit.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
