At the track
« on: May 22, 2009, 01:44:38 am »
Finally got my truck to the track.  It ran 7.16 @ 97mph in the 1/8th. (All motor no nitrous) Was having trouble getting it to hook but were working on it.  Hoping with a little more fine tuning and get the cal-tracs setup that she'll be in the high 6s.

I don't know kinda figure she would be in the mid to low 10s.  I'm really not geared for a 1/4 turning 4500 in 3rd at the finish line in the 1/8th.

Man no kidding, total sleeper! Love it! I think the conversion ratio for 1/8 to 1/4 is 1.57. That would make your 7.16 at 11.24!! Holy crap! What are you running in that thing???

Yea thats about what I figure she will do on motor.  Think I can spray it to mid or low 10,  if I can ever get the traction issues worked out.

A little duct tape and she'll be good as new. :P

Did this happen with the help of some spray?

No believe it or not I still have'nt sprayed it.  This was the result of 12psi in the slicks and 2 full rounds on the cal-tracs launching at 4500.  It did hop the left front tire about 8 or 10 inches off the ground before it broke.  But on the good side I think I finally found the right combination to make it hook.  Got a new J.W. Racing ultra case transmission on the way should be here end of the week and will try it again.
