Rock Falls the 18th!!

[waterbug1999]

Still want my 10 sec pass for the year so the search is still on and not giving up yet!!

I just called and its 40 bucks to race.. Two classes, 12.99 and faster and 12.99 and slower. 3 time runs then eliminations by bracket racing. Win one round get a trophy and win more get bigger trophy. So, if we get a group on here it will be fine. Rauqel is not racing so we have a camera girl.

They have a money race for an extra 60 bucks and same way as above.

Weather says high of 59 and sun at the moment. So, I might leave the drag tires on a run again this Saturday.

Anyone else wanna go?

[DrkPhx]

I'm going if the weather holds out and I get my WB in time. Last run of the season.

[00 Formula]

I'm done for the year, I think I'll wait to run until I at the very least have some stickier tires :lol:

[waterbug1999]

Im ordering bigger jets, so I am going to kick ass!

Hey so when is your WB suppose to be here????

[01midmetws6]

Jody,
I would strongly recommend doing some more fuel system testing prior to throwing in some bigger jets to see what happens. You could enrich your PE settings and see if you get any change with your AFR's, that would point more toward something going on with your fuel solenoid or possibly a plate issue. I would also recommend making a few more pulls with the Nano off just to see what happens. I might steal your 100hp fuel jet turn up the boost another PSI or two and see if I can't run the Wagon into the 12's. :durka:

Well, after talking to a few more people about this.. I come to the conclusion that the jettings I am going by, are what NX suggestions for their NX NOZZLE system.. I have the Nitro Daves PLATE system which has totally different jetting recommendations.. So, you add the +/- 20% of the NANO and its all out of wack and might be the jettings I am using after all. Im trying to get what recommendtions the plate system says just to compare what I am using. If its with in the 20% or close to, then I think I am good.

I have a post on LS1Tech, it explains a little better I suppose.

Some drag radials would do wonders, I see how good you are hooking on the street. lol

You going with us? That would be awesome you getting a trophy with the wagon!

[DrkPhx]

Hey so when is your WB suppose to be here????

Tracking number showing tomorrow. I hope so. :fingersx:

[kikass_z28]

hypothetically speaking, what if you signed up for the 12.99 and slower and you end up going faster? Do they just eliminate you?

[waterbug1999]

Im sure they would move you.. Eliminations is just about a dial in time and seeing if you can hit it. Thy just pair the faster to faster cars and slower to slowe cars to make it close.

[01midmetws6]

Tracking number showing tomorrow. I hope so. :fingersx:

If it doesn't show let me know and you are more than welcome to use mine, I think the GF and I will be down there for the day.

Kind of risky with the Bogarts.

BTW - My WB arrived today. Wohoo!

[waterbug1999]

[MaroonZ28]

If I do go, I'm prob gonna leave the skinnies on too. You think they'll ask me about a driveshaft loop cause I still don't have one with the slicks.

[orange88]

I've run at all of the various types of 'race' days at the rock and never once was I asked about a driveshaft loop and I had slicks on almost every time.

[waterbug1999]

[waterbug1999]

Well, I got 6 gallons of 100 octane today.. Getting N20 and NANO topped of tomorrow while I am picking up my new N20 jets!! 10.6, here I come!!
I plan on lowering the activation more in the RPM bands so it hits harder out of the hole.

you can use it if you want, just dont break it and like i said theres some concrete thats on it that would have to be delt with

[01midmetws6]

Did you get your fuel system figuered out or are you just going to run some huge fuel jets? I am still going to try and make it but I have a lot of winterization stuff that needs to get taken care of this weekend.

[MaroonZ28]

I was just kidding. I don't have a truck to pull it so I'd have to use Adam's Tahoe again. Gas prices keep going down like they have, I'll go get me a Silverado to pull the car in the Spring. Thanks for the offer though. I'll just put the skinnies in the back and drive it down there like Gino and Jody.

trucks are dirt cheap still :durka:

[waterbug1999]

Rather the gas is 2.59 or 2.99, its only a little difference when all said and done. Still 60-80 bucks to fill up.

[MaroonZ28]

It's about 45-50 to fill up the Accord. I'll keep that to go to work and back and have the truck for weekends.

[waterbug1999]

Well, I ran best on motor with the AF 10.5 down the track. Ran a 11.61 @ 115 N/A, if I would have had my AF dead on, maybe a 11.49?? ... Then the juice kicked in and ran 10.71 @ 126.9.. Yea baby!

I figured out whats going on with running lean on spray. I am running out of fuel. I up the fuel jet from 46 to 49 and not a damn thing happened, AF was 12.8-13.0... So, I need to add another pump or some shit..

nice!!! upload any of my videos? :tear:

[MaroonZ28]

Congrat's on the run Jody. Wish I could have been there. Already lost 2 lugs by the time we got to Maplewood. Tightened the remaining 4 lugs on each of the rear tires and then the wheels started grinding on the caliper again. By that time we knew it was a no go. At least I was able to get some sleep when I got home. The rim is probably a little scratched up by now and, hopefully, won't have to be welded. Sucks cause I actually had 2 spare lugs that I decided not to bring since the lugs seemed tight before I left.:pat: We'll try to grind down the caliper a bit more tomorrow and put the stock rims and tires on for the cruise in the afternoon. I'm pretty pissed cause I know with the new tires, I could have pulled some pretty good 60's and get into the mid 11's. Oh well. I'll have to wait 'till spring now. At least I'll have a better rear-end by then and make some hella launches with the nitrous.

Congrats on your gay ass Longhorns taking it to Mizzou. Got a good team this year. Until you play and SEC team.
