New bests all around tonight, went from a tire spinning [email protected] down to a still slightly spinning, all-over-the-place pass of [email protected]. Third pass was the good one, even though the car was still a bit finicky off the line and moved around a bit:
[email protected]@132.3
I did record a better 60ft later (1.61) but I miffed the 2-3 shift and shortshifted not thinking Doh!! So, after coming in with an old best of [email protected], we dropped a ton more ET, gained a good bit of mph, and got my 6 second 1/8th. woohoo
Amazing what some very minor suspension tweaks will do. The difference in 2 tenths between runs was as simple as 2 clicks on the struts or shocks. Small steps, the car is very mild right now but with the right parts and time this sucker is gonna get doooowwwnn.
Setup:
331ci all forged
AFR 165s (small!)
Trick Flow upper/lower
Vortech T-trim at ~12psi
Hoosier 28x11.5 QTPs
26* total timing with 1*/psi taken out with an MSD BTM
90 octane pump gas
stock T-5 tranny
The rear springs are quite a bit too stiff and the rear shocks are not functioning properly. Once I can get those issues tied up we can get some real tuning business taken care of!
