I have all my mods, listed EXCEPT the Methanol injection, which is disconnected and in Florida for "repair". I ran with 1/2 tank of gas (93 octane) no other additives. Launch was "squirrley" I missed 3rd gear, hit the "rim" 2 times, and finally engaged it the 3rd time. I guess that is why my MPH is low. I hope to be in the high 11's with Methanol.
I was at an autoX Sunday, they say you inflate 5psi in the tires over the recommended. so my tires were TOO inflated I guess. Here is the break-down. remember, this is the FIRST time I dragged this car, and my 2nd time ever on the strip.
R/T .125
60' 1.737
330 5.200
1/8th 8.089
MPH 84.99
1000 10.546
1/4 12.60
MPH 108.94
In your opinion, is the 108 MPH because of the mis-shift? or is that flat out obvious.
