Nice runs man!! you can see the direct correlation between the 60' times and the 1/4mi time.
For the weight - next time you are at Etown, as you come down the return road, just pull on the scales and see what it says.

Very nice job on the improvements Just curious but what is your redline set at? If you can adjust your stationary rev limit why didnt you raise your redline abit to go through the traps faster.

Well when i realised and made sure that i him the rev limiter before i trap, this was on the 4th pass... Well actually you were allowed three passes on Saturday but a nice guy there let me to do a 4th one!

Next time i will raise the rev limiter to 7900-8000rpm and see what happens... Definitely no more because i have the cossie cams on a stock valve train...
Actually i will ask my mechanic and Dynoflash if i should do that because cosworth states that you can operate the cams on the stock valvetrain only if you keep the factory rev limit, otherwise you need a valvetrain upgrade!

Good runs man, but I definitly think your car has more in it. I think maybe the HFC could be holding you back a little. Anyhow very good job.

Guys i just love this ****....

Yesterday i was reviewing my logs... From there i understood that my gearchagnes were pretty slow...

From 100% TPS - gearchange - 100% TPS again on average it was taking 0.43 sec... The method to calculate this was to deduct time in seconds between the 100% TPS...

My fastest gearchange in all four passes was in the last pass the 12.14 from 2nd to 3rd gear were it took 0.22sec!!!

Second thing i noticed is that i was changing gear way to high, usually around 7600rpm... Thats in all four gears... I think the way my powerband is from the dynosheets i have the best rpm to change gear are around 7200-7300rpm...

Third thing i noticed was that my Load during the runs is anything from 220 to 260 and it does go over 280 as it does sometimes on the road...

Fourth thing i noticed, even when the car was waiting for 5-8 mins in line to stage with intake temps around 110 F, as soon as the car started moving the temprature was dropping in the 60s....

Don't you just love Evoscan!!!!

EvoScan and Mitsulogger are very powerful tools that can greatly do what you've already done and more for you. I think it's great that you have your crap together and before just throwing $ at a car and wondering why your car is or is not performing as you expected, you took the time to invest $20 on some software that will tell you many things on your cars, and your performance. What were your knock counts if any. From the look of your mph and slips it doesn't look like timing was being pulled because of it. So I'd guess it doesn't get above 3 or so in your runs.

My knocksums except when i was 100% TPS on the 2-step were 0...

Thats at all gears, rpm, load!

Don't forget i didn't see more than 24.5psi on my Defi (peak) which actually is around 1.5psi off that the actual boost...

As i mentioned before my Load Values never went more than 260-265 during the runs... However if i go full throttle while in 3rd or 4th gear Load goes easily more than 280!!!

i ve kept notes now on things i want to try and change and i am positive that i will be able to go in the 11s easily!!

Plus don't forget, i can poor 2 gallons of 116 octane up the boost to 28-30psi and rock and roll!!!
