Full disclosure:
I removed the cross member weights. I also removed the passenger seat. Here's my excuse, I weigh 275 pounds. DRUGS said he weighs 215. The seat weighs 50-60 pounds. You do the math.

There, I told you everything. Like it, don't like it, I don't care. My car went 12.166!!!!

:woohoo:

Here's the highlights...

8-10 second burnout

13lbs of air in the rear ET Streets, 41lbs in the M&H fronts

2100-2200 brake-stall

Mat the gas and release the brake in one motion. Let the car shift to fourth.

I knew this run would be a good one. The car did a dig-slip-dig-slip-gone move out of the hole. Then as I'm approaching the 1000' mark, I notice the car is screaming! I glanced at the tach (it was moving around a bit in the lane, there was a nasty crosswind), and I see it's at 6000!!!

Just as I passed the 1000' cube, with-in a few car lengths, it shifted! Into 4th, just past the 1000! I knew it would be a good one! I yelled a bit when the lady handed me the slip. lol

Here's the kicker... The DA was only about -50 to -100'! What would it be in -1000??? Ohs maybe?

Hmmmm, Atco is open for two more weeks...

GeorgeInNePa

11-28-2009, 06:41 PM

1st run-->12.276 @ 113.46, 1.784 Spun hard! Over did the burn out, could not see the tach to launch it. Too much smoke inside the car! Probably 2500 or more rpm at launch...

2nd run-->12.206 @ 113.33, 1.739 2200ish launch, spun a few turns.

3rd run-->12.351 @ 111.50, 1.779 Line lock switch broke, small burnout, <2000rpm launch, spun 1st and into 2nd. Removed air filter, the car shifted funny, hanging up on the shift. Air filter back in for next run...

4th run-->12.214 @ 114.16, 1.779 2300-2400 launch, spun hard. Shifting correctly again.

5th run-->12.166 @ 113.13, 1.723 "The Money Shot" ;) 2200ish launch, just the right amount of traction and slip.

I still can't get a 1.69, 1.70, or a 1.71 60'!

PS,
Every run, the car was at 170* or below in the stage beams...

11-28-2009, 08:45 PM

2500-2800 rpms and roll into the throttle pretty fast.

With the 3.70s (depending on how big of a tire I can fit) It will probably drop down to 2200ish.

It seems you just paying attention, stop back up pull fwd and try again. I think it's just the way theses LSDs are. Dan said he found nothing wrong with my diff but maybe better clutch packs would help. One burn out first my right then I did the back up pull fwd then the left stopped again then back and forward again into a John Force eat your heart out....

This is true. I still can't believe the MPH, considering what the cammed cars are running.

I think when the higher horsepower guys get the traction thing under control, you are going to see an increase in their MPH.

If you guys are interested we could get a track rental going... normally its $100 a car and you can throw in a few bucks to get VHT sprayed out to the 330' mark instead of just the 60'.

We could make it interesting and say something like $130 a car and do a little ET challenge, winner gets $250, 2nd gets entrance fee paid back, and 3rd gets $50. Maybe scrounge up some other prizes as well?

Jeremy Formato, FasterProms

He did a dyno tune at Keiths Pit Stop in Gettysburg, Pa. Then we did a bit of street tuning.

GeorgeInNePa

11-30-2009, 09:53 AM

George, what about your mph, seems a little low for a 12.16? What do you think is holding the car back, maybe the converter is slipping on the top end? Those are some great runs no matter what the mph is. Congrats

No, honestly, I think the MPH is amazing. I think it's right inline with the power this car makes. Also, I've read where a lot of guys say that the Yank converters are known for big mph numbers.

Don't forget, I have the stock cam, my car doesn't make 420-440hp. My dyno sheet says 353 on it.

GeorgeInNePa

11-30-2009, 09:58 AM

As a PS to the above post, we had a '85 Olds NHRA Stock Eliminator L/SA, 307Olds, Turbo 350, 12 bolt-4.88 rear. On an engine dyno, it would make 360-370ish. That car would run 109-110mph.

Less than 3500lbs race weight, 3485 IIRC, much lighter than us.

So if we figure I really make 420ish at the flywheel and my race weight is about 4100, the MPH sounds about right at 113-114.

GRRRR8

11-30-2009, 10:13 AM

Usually a car that is efficient and hooks fairly well will make a higher MPH then one that isnt/doesnt.

GeorgeInNePa

11-30-2009, 11:10 AM

Usually a car that is efficient and hooks fairly well will make a higher MPH then one that isnt/doesnt.

That and the lighter weight is why the Olds was going over 110mph on 370 flywheel hp.

Except when you spin them really hard and they grow...

I don't have digital pics of it, but I'll have to scan some pics of it to post.

George, I guess I should have looked at your mods closer as I thought you had cammed it. So, good mph for sure. Go after Charlie, he's all talk and I bet it was someone elses car on they dyno and his doesn't make close to that hp. What you think George? LOL
Charlie, go after George, he probably changed the time slip. LOL again. I'm not stirring the shit am I? Hell I know my cars slow. Maybe I'll come to texas with my vet, thats what I'm talking about.

I never took the time to read the full description. Once set for the track how is there road use tire wear going to be??

It will make adjusting quick and it will give you far bigger range of adjustment (ie, toe and camber).

Plus, you can set the bushing itself for freer movement for the track then tighten it up for road use.

Or,at least, so goes the theory...

I know what your trying to do but how will your street tires wear?? Or will you be making adjustments on your own for track and street?

I'll only worry about the adjustments when I set it to "KILL".

Otherwise, it will be aligned and set for street use...

Wow tuff crowd. I have to admit that George's car is pretty impressive for the mods. It won't take much to get to the 11's. Charlie, I'm guessing we'd be a pretty good run on motor, when we dynoed mine it went rich at about 5000, so, when we do tune it finally it should put out another 10-15hp. So with our weight differences it should be a good run. Depends on the launch.
