Default Not a Cobra Killer yet, but gettin there,,

Well, after the track owners decided to repave all my notes/settings from the first 6 runs went out the window.

Wednesday night it only took two runs to get the cars new personal best and best 60' (reaction time was soutstanding as well.)

Run1:

Tires 15psi
Launch 3500
Dead hooked
2.1 60'
.025 R/T
8.875 1/8th mile 83.12mph

Run2:

Tires 15psi
Launch 4000
Dead hooked
2.133 60'
.096 R/T
8.865 1/8th 83.26mph

Run 3: (slip blew out the window going across the bridge home, but I had witnesses thank god)

Tires 13psi
Launch 4500
spun a little but it helped the cam stay in power band
1.8 60'
.013 R/T (best ever!)
8.2?? 1/8th mile
mph ?????

Struts were two turns from full soft on first two,,third run I set them to full soft. This should put me 12.70's-12.80's at our privat track day at Bradenton on May 5th.

Thnx Spike,,,,it was a good night!!! However, this cam is coming out of the car as soon as our private track day is over. This cam that comes w/the Holley Systemax kit (I'm under the impression that this is not the same cam they sell now) is useless on the street. No bottom end.
