Vid: Car made 700rwhp/600rwtq spinning to 6500rpm. Made around 17lbs of boost. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2XTdgEUUEw It is a very fun car and the rpm wraps out very quickly in 1st-3rd. Plans are already in the works for more power... Made it to the Texas Mile where I learned I cannot shift worth a crap from 3rd to 4th. Pulling straight back was making the car go to 2nd so I was having a big delay in that shift as I had to pull to the right but not so far as to go into 6th. First run: 97mph @1/4, 14Xmph@1/2, 151mph@mile. This was a proving run that needed to be between 140-165. Did not shift out of 4th. Second run: 105mph@1/4, 144mph@1/2, 188.9mph@mile. FWIW most cars hitting 14X in the half were doing 160's. My tuner thinks at the current power I could do mid-high 190s. At the end of the run I had an issue. The cause could be a c clip holding a spindle in busting, brakes dragging, or the fact that my fuel pump died and killed the engine. All that I know is it was a wild ride and I can't wait until next year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fdDBXEYMqQ |
