Another Slopoke run Reply #270 – November 10, 2008, 01:57:26 AM Slopoke went to the track again for the 2nd time. :flame: The car was run without the supercharger during this trip. New mods were Edelbrock intake, 70mm bbk throttle body, Kirban regulator, underdrive pullies, a different distributor, new cap, rotor, wires, and no air filter. Much to my suprise the vehicle ran a little faster. Run #1 the timing, iirc, may have been at 10 deg. and launched from a dead stop. Runs #2 and #3 were not as good during power brake launches. One time the track guy had to make me back up during staging because the car was creeping forward. Before #3's launch, the timing was advanced and it felt like it had more power out of the hole, but when it hit third it was knocking and losing power. #4 last run was a regular launch with the timing back down a bit. The next day the timing was found to be at around 16 deg. There is still much improvement to be made and I'll post a thread with some car and engine picks but none from the track. Btw, the weather was perfect! Quote Selected

I was thinking of copy/pasting the whole list into a new thread and updating it from there, but I have a feeling I wouldnt be responsible enough to keep up on it.I will take over updating this list...As before send in copies of the time slips and I will adjust the list.

Foxtbirdcougarforums Top 25 ET List! Reply #276 – November 03, 2009, 07:41:37 PM You back out of it on the 13.42 run??? MPH was only 94mph vs 101 on the other time slip... With the 2.01 short time and the mph from the other ticket, it should go a 13.20 easy... With some gears and converter it should run at least a 12.7... Quote Selected

O/D is a strict NO NO when racing... You want enough rear gear so HP peaks in 3rd just before you hit the finish line... Quote Selected
