Got My Car Down the Track

[LARRY70GS]

Well, Today Wednesday, Sept 6, I drove my car up to Lebanon Valley Dragway with fellow N.E member Bob Christo. Got 3 runs in. 12.771, 12.755, and 12.832, all at 104 MPH + Calculated Altitude ranged from 1280-796 Ft. Temps from 66-60* Barometer from 29.47-29.57. Ignition timing for all 3 runs was 36* retarding back 4* at 3600 RPM (32*) Didn't change the timing, but probably would have went faster with more timing. I'll sort that out some other time, but for now, I gained 1/2 a second, and 3 MPH+. Englishtown is 2 tenths faster than Lebanon, so I figure I'm in the mid 12's without any tuning changes. Car felt great, pulled like a freight train the entire 1/4. I'm happy for now!

Larry,
Congratulations on the new times . I know you'll fine tune a few more numbers.
Any plans to maybe bring the car to Cecil?? How well did it hook up??
I can't believe you had to go all the way to Lebanon for a T&T But, I know you've been itching to get a baseline on her after all your mod's.
Well, see ya around the Island

High stall for first 3 seconds of run. Was playing with my launch RPM (1500-2000). It hooked and went. Didn't mess with the GV, left it off for now.
