Default Hit Dorchestor this past weekend

Took the car up to see if I could figure out what was wrong with it.

First pass car bogged out wouldn't go anywhere. Second pass I got some power on the top end but it was clear what was wrong.

My fuel pump was making a crazy noise, it was not getting fuel from the tank for some reason.

I made some adjustments to the fuel cell and tried again. Went 7.8@94 letting off and breaking up.

Pulled the plugs and swapped them out filled up the cell and cranked up the boost a little.

Hit a 7.0@122, the track was cold as hell , only thing keeping it warm was some dumb ass hot lapping in his camaro which I blew past on the 7.8 pass


So once I figure out the launch on this thing it should rip pretty hard! I had some friends say I was being a bitch about it and gave me some settings for the launch to try.

Was leaving at 6800 and 11psi. Changing it 7500 and 20 psi off the line I hope the track is sticky sunday! Going up to Fayetteville dragway to race with some friends.

It pretty much slid down the track and didn't hook 1st or 2nd.

Yeah the track wasn't worth a shit last Sunday. I only made 2 which were a waste of time. I'd be surprised if that red camaro is still running after the 183 passes he made. I saw your 7.0 pass and was pretty impressed with your car.

I will be going to Bowman from now on.

Thanks man. I had to sit there and laugh a couple times at that Camaro. Every pass it sounded worse and worse.


She did get a little crazy on the 7.0 pass, Hopefully I'll have the launch dialed in this weekend and drop into the 9s up at fayetteville.
