well, any day you can drive your car onto the trailer is a good day.
that being said, i made three passes. i have a horrible bog/stumble that i haven't yet tuned out. it's getting way too much pump shot. all runs were with ~15psi on 275/50-15 m/t radials.
1st pass i left just off of idle. it stumbled bad (2.37 60ft). i ran 105mph 1/8 and 11.47 133mph.
2nd pass left at 2000rpms and it bogged so bad it almost stalled. it took forever to clear up and gave me a 4.90 60ft. yes, a 4.9 60ft. still ran 130mph.
3rd pass i left at 2k and rolled into it. (1.83 60ft) it gave me a 104mph 1/8 and shortly after my exhaust came loose from the downpipe, dragging the ground resualting in a spectacular spark show. i obviously got on the brakes but somehow managed to pull a 10.90 @ 119 out of my ass.
the thing is, i have 26" tall tires, 3.27 gears, and am going through the traps at 6500rpms. that equates to about 16% converter slippage. the main reason on running today was to test the converter. 6500rpms should give me 140mph.
anyways, it could have gone better, but nothing major broke, and the engine ran clean to 6500 (minus the bog).
