cougars first trip to the track! Reply #18 – June 17, 2010, 11:14:33 AM I put the tire pressure @ 13 cold it goes up to 15 hot,, that seems to be working. I did a NOS pass on the street and left some black marks then went back to measure the tread and it was over 9"(full tread). Before it was loosing traction so bad it didnt even leave any black marks.

I can try tho.. Quote Selected
cougars first trip to the track! Reply #19 – June 20, 2010, 01:37:46 PM Went to the track yesterday, unfortunatly, I had no NOS so it was all motor passes, dissapointing. BUT,,,on motor I got a 1.713 60ft wich beats my best NOS 60ft from last week a 1.723 a very small victory.. Oh well, tomorrow is the first day of summer so I have plenty of time to beat up on my car. Ill post video when its worth the time to upload! Quote Selected

cougars first trip to the track! Reply #21 – June 21, 2010, 04:44:02 PM lol! I tow with a 14.0 truck!:D It still ran a 12.4 1/4 mile @ 108mph. Without nos 3rd gear on the AOD drops off bad. Man it feels like a terd after running 11s:mad:. I still have a 3.73 gear, Im thinking about putting in a 4.10 Quote Selected
cougars first trip to the track! Reply #22 – June 23, 2010, 01:11:42 AM I would do some math and figure out where you would tack out in 3rd, and gear accordingly. Looking at how you tow the car, I'm guessing it does not get alot of freeway? Whats your redline, and how much beef does the tranny have to handle it? Quote Selected
cougars first trip to the track! Reply #23 – June 23, 2010, 10:50:08 AM I have to tow the car to the track, the closest track to me is an hour away. Its set to shift @ 6000 but it shifts into 3rd around 3000, what I really need to do is manualy shift,, I need a manual valve body, I dont have time to shuffle. I have all the stock gauges in the car still cuz I wanted to keep it clean but the digital tack just tops out and flashes off. My trans has a truck gear ratio(before it would tack out 3rd gear before the 1/4 mile), 4r70w internals, B&Ms best rebuild kit, and a non locking converter. Quote Selected
cougars first trip to the track! Reply #24 – June 23, 2010, 02:07:36 PM I have heard that stock tachs are not very accurate. I think you need some type of tach. The stock digi tach I know is way off. I need to go to a track one of these days. Just to see what my car with run stockish. Quote Selected
