    Hey guys, about 4 of us Jeeps met at Cecil and BWoody Mike and Gregg were there. Had a blast.

    Mike had the purple Charger there and we believe may have set the stock longblock, on stock tires record?

    He went a blistering 12.62@114 milking it off the line.

    I had a semi-stressful day, b/c the track wasn't prepped well at first and
    the vehicles were slow getting run down the track today.

    ANYWAY......

    Went 3 back to back 12.5s on motor, and tried my double shot 100s on buttons, and
    went 11.54@119, way rich, and then
    over corrected and went 11.45@120, with a crappy 1.69 60ft.
    Could not get the bottle over 800psi, so I wasn't spraying an actual 200 stacked?

    I think with a corrected A/F, warmer & fuller bottle and hitting the button a hair sooner,
    I would have achieved the illusive 11.3xxxx, or a slight bit quicker????
    NEXT-TIME.

    I figured out the secret to fooling the computer a little.

    Let off the juice in between shifts.

    Truck ran flawlessly there, and back 1.5hrs each way, and
    met some cool fellow board members.

    later, taking the wifey out..........






    secret P.S. THANKS DAVE K.

    nothing like posting on both sites huh???? LOL

    Honestly it will go a hair better, when I get co-ordinated better
    with both manual buttons, warmer bottle and more normal 1.60 60ft.

    Congrats. I was wondering how it went for you today.

    I had a crappy day. Ran an 11.065 @ 125.32 mph.

    2nd run was so horrible I'm vowing to quit until this tranny issue is fixed.

    thanks to your experimenting, you made me feel better about
    spraying the BIG ONE.

    Also, after your fluid post, I think I am going to change that very soon, just
    as a precaution, and with 19k miles, it can't hurt.

    ...as for hitting the button.

    I floor it, go about 10 feet, hit 1 shot, then immediately hit the other, lifting on 1 during shifts.

    The one pass I didn't lift on the 2-3 shift, I felt it nose over, and got the slight slipping? sensation.
    will try not to do that again.

    Don't know if you're just joking, but my 275 shot produced a whopping 11.86 @ 108 on the second run. It just won't shift. Yet on the street it feels 100% normal. I dyno right at 400HP at the rear wheels in street trim.

    Glad to meet you Chuck! Damn, you were fast....and the looks from the folks on the sidelines was just Priceless!
    I'm happy with my 12.66 @ 107.10....I need Dave's magic again once we get the ported/polished intake installed - and also tune for the headers.
    Dave - going to need your expetise once again here very soon! ;)

    Can't wait until the next outting.....hopefully, the wait time between runs will be a little better.

    Mark

    Thank you very much....not sure how it compares, so good to know I'm "on track", no pun. I'll tell you - there is just so much enjoyment you can get from seeing folks' response and their facial expressions when they see these Jeeps runs and the times posted "in lights". I was LMAO!
