that mph you'll need a sub 1.3 60ft to tickle the 5.

faster than my 1/8 mile tomorrow

good luck Thumper

Tex

I agree, see you had a 6.001 at 113.27 MPH, do you remember what your 60Ft. was for that. I'm guessing sub 1.30,s

Ya it makes some pretty good steam for a slip n slide powerglide. Best 60 foot so far was a 1.25

Well, that didn't go as planned at ALL.......... First pass I left in 2nd gear, second pass felt horrible so took it into 2nd then lifted and last pass felt good so my dumb azz stayed in it and I heard I went(threw the time slips in the trash)a 1.37 60,no 330 clock and another 6.15 at 111 something............Personally, even though I suck at drag racing, I think the QTP's are not the ticket at my power level and old azz M/T 28X10.5 w's went an easy 1.33 60. last year footin to 2500. Shiloh said I staged deep and even red lit but apparently pulled the fronts a foot plus but that didn't help and I need lots of seat time that I haven't seen in years..........I wish I could of ran as good as some of you and I predicted so maybe some day after new tires and whatever else it needs, I can meet my goal.............Still, a bad day/night at the track is way better than a day doin stuff we don't like and I met some cool people as always and got to see and smell some american muscle............

Still a fast as hell car !

That's racing. That's why we do it 😄

Thump ...I remember you pulling weight out of the car,what was the final #'s for this? Plus I see your using a different shocks.

Keep working at it Dom, you'll get there. Last time out my car was on the run to get the 6.3x I've been wanting and the fuel pump locked up at about 450' . Looking at the 330' numbers if it hadn't picked up any in the back half it would've ran 6.33. I'll get it this year.

Give us an eval. On the shocks

I think with just three passes it will be impossible to say good or bad.

t


2 passes. He left in second gear on the one pass

Dom, whats the chance of trading some carb work for some expert chassis help?
I'm thinking someone from Stock /superstock.

Dom - I would plan another outing when you can expect to get lots of passes (10+ in my book) so you can get into your race groove and try some adjustments. You know those numbers are there, just need time to find them! PS - I have an awesome dominator you can borrow :}

Thankxxx guys and maybe I can make the Famoso T&T on the 17th of this month and figure some stuff out so time will tell.............I had a bad feeling yesterday before we left and didn't even want to go but went anyhow and I want to thank Shiloh for his help and maybe he'll chime in w/what he saw my goofy azz do...............

Greg, I appreciate the offer and if you were here maybe we could do something but if you need carb help just call me and I'll see if I can help ya out...........As far as the shock working, apparently they did their job and they felt nice n smooth not violent like before w/the Ranchos................peace!

Dom I think you just need some seat time and laps. Hard to get anything dialed in with only a couple hits. Fontana has TNT's occasionally might be worth the trip. Just need some time to make some laps and try some stuff. You will find it harder and harder to find improvements the fast you go.

I agree Al and have to focus only on the 60 and 330 THEN let er rip knowing the low numbers are in line...........

Dom, i was thinking of someone local to you. Someone known for good suspension tuning skills, well above my meager knowledge! I'm a loooong ways away this year !

Was a typical Irwindale night.. 200 street cars. 15 cars with slicks.. I think you did well getting a hold of the track on the last pass... I definitely think you were in deep on the last pass..which definitely scrubbed a couple hun.. all in all car sounded amazing.. and me being one of the normal Dodge guys out there.. I will tell you people took noticed and we're asking questions about your ride. I played that game for a couple years at Irwindale.. run 6:40 and the last pass let it have it.. that technique almost never work for me.. cuz at the end of the day Irwindale is only a street legal test and tune mostly non prepped track built in the parking lot..

I hear ya Shiloh and really appreciate your help, all the good people who came by my pit and just being in that environment so maybe we can hang at Famoso in a few weeks and I hope your sister and car are ok...........

Ya, I removed the 2nd battery but put it back for these tests but as SPORT440 suggested, maybe the new shocks didn't need the ballast after all.........lots to do to get ready for what may be my last pass till my car is 100% legal..........
