My best time was a 12.6 also at 107 MPH with a 1.76 60'. I could not get the damn boost up past 20 PSI. Stupid MBC is broken or something. The car was running pretty good tonight considering 90 degrees and 90% humdity. When it cools down I think I will be in the low 12's easy. Especially after I get a boost contoller that works. Should have been running 24 PSI on the race gas. Oh well. October will be here soon. It was good seeing all of you again.

My car is a POS. Had 5 traps in the 104.8-104.9 range. Even though my 60fts were all around 2.9-3.1 (yes I refused to launch the car), my traps should have been A LOT higher I tried my recent TT map and also a completely zeroed out map, both trapped in the 104s. Also I determined my car will not enchange 3rd quickly, I missed it on almost every run (even when I hit 3rd fine I still got in the 104s) Given it was funny to run a 15.8 @ 103. Will someone buy my car please so the misery will end?

Think anyone could post some timeslips? j8's would be best since your traps aren't too much better than mine. Basically wanna see your 1/8 speed. Need to figure out how much good launches add to the end trap.

Despite misfiring all the way through the first 3 gears, I managed a 12.4 at 111, my best time ever. I'll figure out tomorrow if the plugs are fouled or just not enough ignition power.

Jason, you need to get an upgraded actuator and it will hold boost. My car with the stock actuator would not get any more boost even when I changed out boost controllers. I ordered a Forge from Buschur today. I'll let you know how it works. My peak boost tonight was 21-22 psi.

Tony was on alky and I was on race gas, but only running 21-22 psi. I think Tony ran a little more boost, but dropped off really bad. We are both upgrading the actuators and will try again.

I agree. Also the 90 degree weather was not helping things out to much. I have never had this problem when it is 60 degrees out. Nice to see you in the low 12's. When you get that turbo completely really, you are definetly going to be seeing the mid 11's. We need to head back to the track when it cools down a little.

2.41 sec...............60 ft.
5.92 sec...............330 ft.
86.14 mph............1/8 mile
119.02 mph..........1/4 mile

Damn I need a clutch!

It was fun to see that thing pull like mad and you were only running 28 psi.

I personally think my 15.8@103 was more unusual :-P

My car will hit 26 psi on alky but drops off significantly because of the stock actuator. Hopefully the upgraded one will allow me to only taper off about 2 psi to redline and that should make a nice difference overall.
