New Personal Best, 12.159 Cam Only

[OffshoreDrilling]

Consolidating information here, there is a conversation going on in my GLD thread and in the fastest thread.

Last night I headed up to WI to make some passes at GLD in the TBSS. I was not expecting to do anything spectacular, given the hot weather. It had been a while since I was racing, and I had the itch to get some track time in. Track prep was phenomenal! There were a lot of race cars doing test hits for a race the next day. Plenty of fresh rubber on the track and frequent traction compound applications.

1900' Density Altitude

12.159 @ 108.40mph 1/4 mile

7.645 @ 87.69 1/8 mile

and my favorite part....

1.584 60'!!!

I made a total of 19 passes, yes 19.

-7 were 12.199 or better
-10 were 12.250 or better
-1, the second pass I made, it wheel hopped and ran a 12.470. I dialed in two clicks of compression on my rear shocks after that, and it never happened again.
-8 of the passes had a sub 1.600 60' time, the rest were 1.601-1.620

Just for shits and giggles, the altitude corrected time is 11.895 @ 110.861 MPH We frequently see NEGATIVE DA here in the fall!

For the haters....... The truck weighs 4030lbs, shut your mouth until you run a pass as fast or faster than mine full weight. It should have been under 4000lbs, but I still had over a 1/4 tank of gas

you should be a poster boy for that trans you have. have you had any issues ever with it? you have what, 300+ passes on it?

 

[Pillion88]

you just blew my mind haha what are the specs on your cam?

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

Never had a problem with the trans KJ, i did have it refreshed when I changed the converter though. They said it looked flawless! Somewhere around 300 passes and 20k miles on it.

Anyways...Congrats Jared! That's hauling for sure! 11's should be no problem in the fall for you

I just copied and pasted the same thread I made on the TBSS forum. These guys cry about weight reduction. I dont have 22" wheels a sub box and baby seat in it so its "not fair"

who did the trans again?

RPM did it originally, FLT refreshed and converted it to 2wd

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Ah ok

I was confused on who was talking shit on here about it.


So what does the fastest cam only tbss have over yours? What's that time?

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

Not much, just ran in some better weather. 12.067 @ 110.78

I should push it down into the 11s somewhere.
