quite a few nice cars.
a cobalt with quite a few mods ran 15.5'-14.4s with low traps
a c6 zo6 with a shitty launch letting out and getting back into a few times ran 11.8 at 122.
paxton viper ran 11.08 at 132. was the first time at a track
Hahn racecraft sunfire ran 11.4s iirc. looked sic for a sunfire.
I went with mike(12.99someday) to try and get a couple runs in off spray.
First pass with 30psi in the slicks, Heat soaked(just pulled in), a shitty launch and a little knock through most of the run
13.7@104 2.2 60'
We Knew there was a problem and went over a few things. checked the alky pump and it would run but not flow a drop. Thinking the pump was shot and not having a smaller pulley with us we just about gave up. I was thinking maybe the check valve was clogged and removed it and sure enough it was clogged.
Cleaned it out and boom worked perfect.
Let the car cool for a while and got back in line
we lowered the pressure to around 22 psi and got a decent burnout in
12.9 @103 1.87 60'.....ran perfect in first and second. 6* of knock in third gear up but mike was shifting a higher then normal and the car ran rich as balls
we let the car cool down again and adjusted the fuel some. got back in line
Some one hit the wall and we waited a long time for another pass.
Got a better burnout launched harder
12.8@103 1.81 60' 3rd gear knock again less this time but still there.11.0-11.2AFR on the wideband so still rich as hell. Adjusted the fuel again but they didnt allow any one else to run because the track temps dropped real quick after 6 and the top end started be real scary for alot of cars after 9pm.
Scanned on the way back to the shop and it ran quite a bit better but needs the fuel and timing adjusted more. only a few test and tunes left so maybe it will run again before TCG race day
by the way the car weighs 3400 pounds with no driver and the front seat and back seat removed. the spare tire wasnt in but the 10lb nitrous bottle was there so it kinda equaled out. nothing in the rear end to help with squating.
not record setting times for the setup but it shows us that even with quite a few issues its a solid 12sec car off spray. im thinking 12.50s are not out of the question. The nitrous seems to be knocking about a full second of his times so hopefully he will get his goal.
