Once you change the cam, we are all in the same class. The heads have to come off to do it, so not doing anything to them is lost time and money.


I will be waiting. :devil:

I wish I was going to be at Cecil. I've talked to Roy & John (and George) to about this (about racing in MD or NJ), but I'm all the way in Michigan.

I may have to give Fran @ RPM a call.....

Honestly, you need sticky tires, a line-lock, and a day at the track learning to be consistent on the launch.

Until then, nothing you do is going to change things.

Do you really want a dyno sheet that says 475hp and a time slip that says 12.25? You don't need more power, you need more launch.

Amen. I have the tires (MT ET Street Radials). I just think a different tune (or cam) will result in better times. There have been people with less drag racing experience (I am far from super experienced), that have netted better times with different tunes & cams......

Oh well, it's all good.....

Hey, don't get me wrong, I switched my tune also. I'm just telling you you need to know what the car will really do with good tires on it.

I agree with you and George. You need traction and a different tune. Something doesn't add up with your times. Did you run at any other tracks? Some track are slower.

Mike I assure you I could get that car in the teens easily. It might take a few tweaks to the tune, BUT until you see 1.7ish 60fters you wont know how fast it is.

How are you going to get his car into the low 12s if you can't even get your car there??

I assure you I am not even concerned with the 12s.

My ONLY concern is enough traction to get under 11.50. If it 60s in the 1.60s, I will be talking shit for months!!!!!

I have done this for too long. I guess in a way thats why its no big deal too me. My guess is on the very 1st pass I will run the fastest time. If I do, I wont make a second pass. Why kill the car when I already know what its capable of.

I want to save enough for a mid 10 sec pass on the bottle. :)

I know that....that's why I'm so frustrated. The driver factor has been eliminated.

Hell it did that 8 weeks ago......
