Ran a 10.59 @133

I ended up going to the track yesterday and ran on drag radials. I took indys advice and stuck to an 8 inch rim and i couldnt be happier. I did not heat up the tires at all and ran them at 29 psi each run

28psi of boost = 560whp weekend warrior

1st run first time at the track with the drag radials on 17's( ran on 18's n street tires for 4 years) i rode the clutch to long and i ended up bogging( 2.0 60 ft) then missing second. Ended up running a 12.4 @122.

2nd run got a great launch but i babied all my shifts a bit due to missing second the first run
60ft....... 1.619
330....... 4.478
1/8........ 6.859 @ 102.31
1000 .... 8.900
1/4....... 10.594 @ 133.66

c-16 @ 33psi(only saw 29psi) whp=???

The track was going to close in a bit and i switched to my c-16 map. Originally tuned for 38 psi but i lowered down to 33psi due to the c-16 being old and i wanted to make sure to would run safely. Something was off since i was only seeing about 29 psi and jiggling on my boost gauge this run. I ended up preloading the drive train too much and started to creep forward and i guess i tripped the sensor. it was great launch as well and i felt i shifted more aggressively but i ended up with a lower trap speed? I guess i developed a boost leak or something, the car did not feel like it was cutting out.

60ft...... 1.924( I stared to creep forward n tripped the sensor)
330...... 4.856
1/8....... 7.237 @ 102.22
1000.... 9.288
1/4....... 10.988 @ 133.12

Nice man, wish I could have been there to see you run it. I foolishly booked an event over the shootout that took priority.

Thanks Brian. I had a blast, and im sure i ended up being the quickest import there. Those pics are of my first run. I posted on nasioc if any one had any pics/vids of my runs. One guy said his buddy did and i'm hoping that it was the 10.59 run.

bfg 225/45 17. I love them so far at 29psi with no burn out i still hit a 1.619 60 ft. Hopefully i can lower the time by heating them up and playing with the tire pressure.
