MR 1/4mile time Vishnu stage 1++

I guess it was a coincidence that my highest traps 112-113 mph were when I had s hitty 60 fts caused by wheelspin( notice my 12.2 s were at 110-111 mph and not 112-113 mph). Now if u bog ur trapspeeds will be a lil lower. Think of it this way Azar. Wheelspin equals going nowhere vs. traction going somewhere. U are going to get to a higher spot in 4th at the end of the 1/4 due to staying in one place and runnin through first gear without going very far down the track. Not too hard to figure out if u think about it dude. Simple logic goes a long ways.
Ok thanks for the explanation and yes what you said does make sense. I don’t argue when I see facts.. In fact I pull out and say I am sorry.
But IE I was bugging every time. I would loose traction like crazy then bug then grip again then go. At least that’s what people told me when they saw me launching the car.

Az3ar- Please stop trying to fuel this fire. It doesn't solve anything.
EVO MR- I'm willing to help you but if you think the tune is too lean, there's nothing i can do other than tell you how to richen it up (assuming you are running an xede, of course). If you think I'm trying to snub you for some reason, I don't know what to say. But if you want help from me, I'm here. If you don't, then I hope you find someone else who can get your car to run the way you want it to. That's all that matters at the end of the day.
Regards,
shiv

Shiv,
I am not trying to add fuel to the fire. you have business to run and family to feed and I wish you the best although this is very sensitive subject to me. I did not want to post here but IE brought my name in the mix and started throwing me with stones when his house is made of glass.
Thanks

hahaha
Well it never had to go this far.. I tried to stop it 3 pages ago...
I'm glad we can hopefully work this out and everyone can just sleep it off. I will be in touch shiv, But I just pray IE comments arent true. But I'm willing to take one more chance. I have so much invested already
Thanks
Chris

Quote from MR Owner (With the MR I am over 7000RPM's in 4th gear when I pass the 1/4 mark..AS far as your times you may be at a higher elevation then I am which would explain your lower trap speeds..I am pretty close to sea level..)
I believe he trapped 107-108 mph the same as u with just a flash. However, he kept it in fourth gear. Shift gear and lose 2/10 s and at least 2 mph.

I ended up shifting around 7600 RPM from 4th to 5th (stock valve train, not sure what it can handle)
I have the x flash that I was told removed the rev limiter, I didnt want to take my fairly new MR to far in the RPM range. I feel 7600 RPM is about as far as I should push it.
Do you feel differently? How high should I have held out the revs?

5 speed ratios/// 6 speed ratios
1st 2.928/// 2.909
2nd 1.950/// 1.944
3rd 1.407/// 1.434
4th 1.031/// 1.100
5th 0.720/// 0.868
6th N/A/// 0.693
every single gear but 3rd and 5th are shorter, or longer (not sure if # represent longer or shorter ratios)
