10.808@129.94 best e.t.
60ft-1.588
330-4.503
1/8-6.994
mph-99.31
1000ft-9.061
1/4-10.808@129.94

10.951@130.42 best MPH
60ft-1.685
330-4.657
1/8-7.096
mph-99.60
1000ft-9.208
1/4-10.951
mph-130.42

all these passes were made running on E85 at 30psi with no nitrous.

Then I tried to make a few nitrous passes..
1st one I sprayed in 2nd gear and 3rd then shifted to 4th turned the nitrous switch back off stayed in it for a second off nitrous then let off and slammed the brakes hard for the final 100 or so feet and went 10.678@115.99
2nd attempt sprayed 2nd gear, 3rd and 4th then though I popped an i/c pipe right after i shifted to 4th ran 10.646@128..Turnes out i melted a spark plug. So no more nitrous untill the dyno. I think once we get it tuned on saturday with the nitrous it should be good for over 135 and better than a 10.5 but well see..

Ya in 4th gear boost it was hitting close to 36-37 psi because of the 100shot, and when it went over 36psi it hit top of the graph on the AEM which was only calibrated to run 40psi minus baro press. So it maxxed out the graph that we had setup and i saw it hit 12.7 then 12.9 on the wideband right after i saw that it sounded like an i/c pipe blew off, so i shut it down.. drove it home and pulled the spark plugs, one of them was "fouled", so i changed the plugs.. re scaled the AEM and now its setup for 45psi. So hopefully no more "fouled" spark plugs

Maybe thats a better explaination then just saying melted a plug...lol

Wow! Looks like there are some seriously fast cars out here! Hey... Is anybody going to the test and tune today? I think I'll head out there to log some data at altitude...

[-EpicEVO-]

I'm heading up around 4 to do some more no nitrous passes, and practice the pro tree some more

Well improved a little bit tonight. First run right off the highway litterally i went through tech which i am teched for the year so i signed a piece of paper then watered down the intercooler, pulled in the lanes, went 10.74@131 with a 1.68 60ft.. No nitrous still.. It was funny because right after my first run they call me back to tech, and say, "you cant run that fast"... i said back "why not".. They looked the car over and one of the tech guys was like WOW never that i would see something like this go 10's right after pulling off the highway.. LOL, so my car techs to 10.000 or 135 lol, hopefully i will get kicked out this year with nitrous..

Ran a total of 3 runs the others were 11.1@130 and then 10.9@129 just no traction after there was a shadow on the track..

Anyways i started to push some coolant so hopefully just need to re torque the head..

Awesome times, man! Hey what time were you there? I wanted to watch your car run, but I think I got there too late. I did see a silver 8, though...
