Yesterday at Toronto Motorsports Park the best I could muster were 13.8's.
Is St Thomas faster track than TMP or what ? Last year I pulled 13.6's at 104.6 MPH with 2.2 60 ft's and that was when I was running rich, no pullies, no aftermarket shifter and no tune.
Yesterday I was running basically 2.2 60 ft's a couple were in the 2.1xx range, but my mph were 102.xx, not even 103 mph. Since St Thomas last year I've added pullies, shifter and a custom dyno tune. I have more hp and torque but my times sure didn't reflect it.
Someone mentioned to me that the barometric pressure was rising all day yesterday and that the air wasn't great for racing but it beats me. Perhaps it's just operator negligence on my part and I can't drive the damn car. I never powershift either but with the power I'm putting down and the weight of my car I should see better trap speeds or so I would think. I guess 355 gears don't help much but still, I should see better traps.
Anyway I only got about 4 runs in, but the 1st run I beat a 400 rwhp LS1 Camaro SS. He miss shifted 2nd so that worked out Everytime I lined up against this Camaro I'd take him from the line, but he would reel me in by the time we hit the trap. His traps were in the 110 range and he wasn't happy either since his heads and cam. He said he was trapping 109 mph stock, so he's a little upset to say the least.
