A pic with my fat ***


without my fat ***


rear shot


1/4'd away



took it to the track today, had a few problems, fairly disappointed, need to tweak it at the track under load next time, learned alot about the car though.

 

so what did it run?

 

it wasnt running too hot today, need to make some adjustments. no excuses, just needs tuned under some load, managed a 10.7 @ 122. turbo was not happy it was creeping above what the system can hold, and something was opening. we encountered this on the dyno also, so with some adjustments it should make the power at the track next time

 

not a bad opening day though. new cars are a learning process.

 

looking good.

 

ya, im still really disappointed as the old car out of the box ran a 10.5@131, but i think we've figured out our problem and will rectify it on the 26th

Damn, didn't even know you went up thur

 

it was a low key deal, as i expected the car to not be up to full potential, but didnt expect how poorly it did

That's bragging rights in my books.

 

graig you did a nice job with the car.And 10.7 with problems is nothing to be disapointed at. I am just glad to hear it going down the track.

 

thanks, ya i'll update ya after the 26th.

more pics

 

hey graig, is that a 38mm wastegate? if so, couldnt it be the reason for boost creep or problems maybe????

 

nice....

 

I think that could be part of the problem as well. At least put another 38mm on it. you have the room for it.

Let me know if you need another person to sign off for ya.

 

will do sir. i got you, and a guy with a top comp dragsterr that will, i think im set now, as long as i can run the numbers

 

while they may not be what you expected, for just hopping in a new setup I would say thats pretty damn good times.

Car looks bad ***

 

ya, i know that if we get it to stay under 28psi, and the clutch holds, that car will move

 

time for a Twin Disc $$$$$
