Any interest in hitting Byron tomorrow....Test and Tune!

92 was a struggle today had to launch at 900RPM just to get a run in....then I was all over the place in terms or times/MPH. I used to be able to launch at 1800-2000 and hook.

Launches at 1100 or more resulted in doing burnouts through first and second......

ran a 12.83 @ 115.73 with a 2.92 60ft and 91.08 1/8th mile
then a 13.12 @ 114.6 missing a shift

12.83 at 114.


Same setup that had me in the 117s and 12.5/4s

The 92 definately has more power but its getting no better results than my 90 which ran 12.88 at 113 last week....in pretty much a stock set up

Default Re: Byron Tomorrow

Here's a couple of vids from Byron today. Couldn't get a better day weather wise. They had over 300 cars there. A gracious young man took these two vids so they're not terrific but you get the flavor.






They had us pretty well mixed in with different types of cars. I dropped my tire pressure (street tires) to 30psi and that made a big difference in 60' ttimes and 1/8 MPH.

My numbers for the day were:

Running an 08 C6 Coupe 6 speed.

12.797 @ 116.34 C6 12.892 @113.37

Running the Saleen Mustang in the vid

12.786 @115.27 Mustang No sense in posting

Running a Mitsu Evo

12.71 @ 116.19 Evo 12.589 @ 110.82 I won top end by .2014


Although pulling air from tires helped launch, 2nd gear still a problem. Tires slip and need to back off till they grip again. I can see how DRs could make a difference.

There may be one more vid of me running the C6. I'll post if I get it.
