New car finally hitting the track: estimates?

i'm just happy for you that you are able to get her on the track now

I was too. Next weekend is the last weekend and then the track closes

tbh i would dial in / adjust / tweak things. in the mean time you can get the chassis and 60' times to a consistent baseline.

Without spending money there isn't much to tweak. I made 3 back to back passes with .0?? reaction times and all within .040 seconds of each other. Seems to me I could be pretty competitive in most of the non-electronics classes, definitely in the DOT classes.

build another engine separately, to do all the roller stuff etc.
get it all done and ready before you swap it in.

Can't afford to do this. My mill is far from being tired but any work can be done over the LONG northeast winter.


11.7's are not to shabby and right now with the money invested you are not too worried about breaking stuff. after you get the roller special and ported heads etc you will be.

yeah the 30,000 I already have invested is no big deal, lol.

nice car bro


so my point is on the consistency/dialing in/tuning make sure not to let track conditions trick you. changes you make could be the right ones but the track conditions can make you double guess yourself

I was in the same lane all day, every pass but the track conditions when it's 40 degrees outside can change quick.
