Thanks travman, I've been sick for the past few weeks and had marrow treatment on Friday. Tuesday afternoon was the first time I left the house and that was for three hours to run at the track. My driving was off, but it was enough to get the job done. Tom's tunes are solid and as my driving improves it's starting to show what the car is capable of. All in all, even with a few mistakes during the run, the numbers show we have a bit left in her.


Thanks crcain, it's a work in progress. I'm just starting to understand what the car wants and learning as I go. So far it's been a light slip, but we now have a direction to shoot for and the 60's should improve. If I could hit a high 1.5 I'd be pretty happy.

Thanks all, Indy

 

 

congrats on the 11.7!

 

CONGRATS!

sorry for your lost... stay positive and stay healthy

 

Thanks, here is the run. http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1...des_710199.htm

 

Hey, Indy, are you guys running again tonight?

 

I am very sorry about your loss. Best wishes during this sad time...

And Congrats on getting the car faster and faster.

 

CO_VR4, Not tonight, the weather man called for rain last night and today and he was right .

This morning I mocked up the new Wilson D Rail https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...evolution.html and worked on components for future products. Tom and I have a long list of new stuff to test and the best part is we design, build, and test our own prototypes. I know we have more fun obtaining results with the parts we build and develop from ideas we kick around than buying stuff off the shelf the ideas and projects never seem to end. The next scheduled day for IRP is next Tuesday so stay tuned for more results and thanks for asking . Indy

 

It's definetely more rewarding building your own parts and going through all the testing than buying something off the shelf, I'm with you on that one.

Also good to see Wilson did the billet mounts for the fuel rail I suggested to you rather than the bent tab the rail started with. That's much nicer.

 

Right after you invented the internets?

 

HAHA!

 

Not sure which one of you is worse, the one with the stupid comment or the one laughing at it.

Post #18 in that thread is the original design and I am sure if Jim dug deep he would tell you I told him about the change and told him how we did our rails like that 10 years ago.

Bottom line is the new rail is nice and I'm glad to see the new billet tab on it, that will never break or cause a problem. Nice rail.

 

A question here, and I am not trying to be negative, but apart from improving 60' times, what about the tire allows the ETs to improve so much?

 

amazing 11.7 run indy/9sec9; truly very impressive

The tires did have a profound efect. This thread is great for drag racing tech; kudos to sharing guys.

9sec9, condolences on your mother

 

just out of curiosity has the map been released?
