WAW Ver2

[djkice]

got so much wheelspin it was crazy, no matter how I launched.... either span off line or second or third, few times even whole track it was rediculous, was getting hosed by slow cars too lol

think few times when I span second car went sideways towards wall by looking at the videos looked pretty scary..

best was a 12.02 @ 122mph 2.4 60'

ran with a full tank opposed to quater which I had last time, in hopes to have a bit more weight in rear to keep car down, actually span more :S

think its time to give up the street tyres or stop attempting to run on them... was "supposed" to run on semis but funds lacked somewhat

humidity was down 10% since last time

you still did alright... remember that on street tyres, doing a pre-stage burnout usually is detrimental to the ET time.

im suprised I didnt get a slap on the wrist for my 'mid track loss of traction' lol !!

we could see the lines painted from the top viewing area when watching the burnout comp. haha

your skids were awesome mate

I was trying to preserve my tread on my street tyres, hence being stingy on burnouts. I guess the street tyres wont hold temperature as well as semi slicks...

Unlike last time as you can see from video above, big burnout didnt make much of a difference.

Anyone heading down tomorrow for a run?

[djkice]

I probably will.

hopefully conditions are decent for once

Was stop start traffic all the way fwy south to get there lol, got there so late and there was hardly any cars... by the time I changed tyres and was ready the line a scrutineering was massive and way more cars turned up

first run 11.81 @ 123 1.97 60' got warned to slow down a bit

second run 11.58 @ 122 1.95 60' got told that was my last run untill I get harness and tailshaft loop

cant beleive I gained 2 10ths for 0.02 60' - I felt I had much more in it, and was not launching as hard as I could either... guess that's practice though.

so tailshaft and harness or wait for a private track day?? you seem to be hooked the number of times your going.

what was the relative air density/altitude reading on your printouts??

[djkice]

ambient temp 22.7

absolute temp 1013.3hpa

corrected pressure 1016.7hpa

relative humidity 58%

density altitude 315.2m / 1034.2ft

wind se 126 @ 17knots

track temp 28.9C

got a private day in a couple weeks so ill do some runs then...

then after that not sure... chuck a tailshaft loop and harness when I get money

Nice times though your MPH is a little down for your power output.

[djkice]

wouldnt be because of humidty though?

might have to check all my boost pipes etc have suspected a leak or solenoid issue for a while now...
