Dicuss track track times, problems with your cars, all the drama that went down, and anything else that went on yesterday at the track.

I for one, had a great time. I knew so many people there it felt like a high school football game. Thanks to all who came out.

[TurboLSX]

i had a best vs herron performance.

6.62 @112, on the 9.5psi WG spring.

problems for the weekend were: balancer bolt coming out, boost control was just.
Special thanks goes out to Tim(2001z) and his pit crew. Thanks again for all the help.

[LWillmann]

Don't forget you can enter your times in the Timeslip database.

[The EnforceR]

I had a great time even though my car is a bracket car, LOL.

Chris set me up I believe, his peeps coming over and telling me it is not running too well and the bolt is backing out, that is why I asked him if he thought it would hold together for one more pass, LMAO. I was going to pro tree him (ie leave on the first bulb) but decided not to do that and he red lighted anyway and he come around me in the first 60', I was like "DANG he is on a RAIL, that is going to be FAST" and I saw the 6.62 @ 112 and was impressed. Chris was having fun and it was all alot of fun!!!!

Glad to meet alot of you guys and it was a good day!!!

[406malibu]

damn, good times chris. good to see its finally coming together.

[WhiteIrocZ]

Hate I missed this one guys, school kicked my ass all weekend. I might try to get by the track next Sunday.

Time for a little loctite on that balancer bolt. That wouldn't be good to lose a balancer at 6k. Can't wait to see it on a decent rearened setup and some more boost.

[justins99ss]

yea it pulled that run out its ass.lol i just figured the boost controller messed up and the car spiked alot of boost. but congrats.

[TurboLSX]

lol actually that was the run i took the controller out all together. i think it ran good cause we spent about an hour letting it cool off and getting the bolt back in. the others were hot lapped kinda. 15min cool down

[406malibu]

did you log that run? if so, what was the peak boost?

[The EnforceR]

i know his other passes were still showing around 10 psi, not sure about the 112 pass.


shon, so close to bringin that tarr up!!!!

[Diggler]

shon, so close to bringin that tarr up!!!!
it used to bring em both up a few inches with the old combo

[hi officer]

112, thats about all the car will do so it is set up perfectly for the 1/8 now:suspicious2:

[The EnforceR]

with that converter yea lol

[RamAirGod]

Sorry, i missed it. I got back in town about 9pm last night and the whole ride back i was thinking how much fun ya'll were having. Sounds like i really missed out :(

[punisher]

same missed it, i thought i would have had my intake manifold done sat but didnt til sunday after noon. sounds like everyone had fun..

[Herron Performance]

needs less weight on the front and it will pop.
the T56 set up had 4.33s and launching at 6k+ will hang them about a foot....
it will come around, just the 3rd time to the track with the car, learning new stuff all the time and that is fun!
and having not been in a car for over 2 years, just making passes is a blast for me, even the ones I got out of (ie the last 2 of the day....)

[TurboLSX]

im going next to put in the 3.42 gears back in, buy a new WG spring and run 15psi. i had a lot of fun thats for sure, i think an enclosed trailer will be in the works and a big truck, the wife says im beating up on her jeep. im going to try to run every other weekend, work on the car between track days. im hooked, if i get everything done i would like i think a 118-120mph pass will be possible next track day.

Rock won the street tire shoot out with a 7.2 at 105. like i said a lt1 would win the street tire deal.

[Ryans_Pewter_SS]

What kind of street tires was everyone on? What worked decent?

[91SILVERFOX]

lol rock was on uniroyal tiger paws , and rodney finished second with some 7.5 passes looked like he was on some thing he got out of the junk yard

[MrDavid]

Rock won the street tire shoot out with a 7.2 at 105. like i said a lt1 would win the street tire deal.

104mph actually. I thought it was 105 also but he showed us the slip. Anyone know how much that car weighs? (without the sandbags LOL)

[TurboLSX]

yeah then i can have a tool set like the other guys and everything i need incase something broke or someone else in the club needed to fix something, it would the rolling CHO shop. also allison said she could see better if she sat on top. im getting a truck this week, i have thursday and friday off to find one.

4.10

[2001z]

It was np chris . Glad my friend was lazy and take his tools out of his car lol. I had fun and was cool to meet some new people . Shon your car was def running like a bracket car it was dead on everytime :). I know rock won the sts but i think jay has the fastest timeslip of a 3.33 lol. hopefully im gonna head out there the following weekend and make some passes:wrenchbanana:

[Herron Performance]

Shon your car was def running like a bracket car it was dead on everytime :).
No matter what I changed in the tune, it stayed the same....guess that is good.

[MrDavid]

Did you change the timing to 30* advance?

[Herron Performance]

Did you change the timing to 30* advance?

yes but dont think I made a full pass, the track seemed to get loose at the 330' for me (and a few others that I watched) so I got out of it.
it was not pulling any timing up to the point I got out of it so I will run it with 30* and keep going from there!!

I really need to get to the dyno and find out what it really wants rather than just playing but dyno time is not cheap. I have been to the track 2x already and had ALOT of fun for less than the dyno time I need.

[Diggler]

i can relate with the bracket car thing... back in may i made 8 passes varying nitrous jetting between a 135 shot to a 175 shot and went 10.30-10.36 at the same mph each pass. played with fuel pressure and jets.... timing.... air pressure in tires....
finally fixed the problem up top and picked up .2 at the end of the day.

[The EnforceR]

well then i vote yes for the enclosed trailor. ill head up the part of makin it purdy.

[RamAirGod]

What did you do, start from 3/4 down track? lol

[MrDavid]

ill head up the part of makin it purdy.

This sounds like a CHO weekend event at Chris' house.
