Just 7 lbs, I data logged one time and it pulled a degree down track just before the traps, but it pulled hard all the way down track. I think the slicks might be hurting my 60' times but I won't change as they are easier on the drive train on the launch then drag radials are. I'll give up a few hundreds to save axles and drive shaft failure. DA was negative 300+

When it pulled timing was it hitting a knock sensor? Still great times for 7psi. you have a bunch left in there

Should be good competition for an A10 with drag slicks or DR's

Does the canned Maggie tune have any knock at all?

Great times!

I'm not using the canned Maggie, I am using Mikes tune from Magnacharger but its the one he ran in his car with the same setup. I haven't run the canned tune since we added the intercooler. Glad I made that change, however I do think without the intercooler and the canned tune it still would have run very low 11's. I can't believe how hard this car pulls all the way down track.

Retune this week and 5 gallons of VP MS109. If no wind or tail wind I should be solidly in the 10.60's at over 130. I was right about the 10.80's and hope I'm right about the 10.60's. I'll eat some crow if I'm not. Ha, hate birds.

Congrats on the times you are on it!! Why do you think the slicks are hurting your 60',and why would a DR be harder on the drive train only thing I can think of is a little stiffer side wall but wouldn't the DR little bit of slippage make up for the shock on the hit. Educate me I haven't been down the strip is 15yrs getting ready to go back with this new camaro so I'm trying to absorb everything I can from you guys

Yes your right, the side wall absorbs a lot of shock and could cause a little lag in the launch. This is a good bracket car also, 5 passes within 3 hundredths of a second even if the slicks might cost a couple hundredths it is very consistent, I've run drag radials lots of times and don't remember them having the consistency of the slicks.
