Can't get any easier than that.

New best time tonight
Broke 100mph in the 1/8 and 130mph in the 1/4. Only 11.5 with a 1.87 60ft. I need to work on the suspension. 10.7afr and 1.7bar/boost. Not sure if I want to lean it out or add more timing????

In car video 10.91et
http://www.rcmracing.org/amupload/10.9133.93.wmv
shift light on at 7100rpms. boost gauge is middle one on the dash. watch the wall when I shift into second gear. car goes side ways real fast. Shifted in to second gear late, around 8000rpms. Rear tires are MT ET street at 14psi. 60 ft time was 1.74. I lost by .068 of a second.
The poping at the start is not me. I don't two step.

MPH was down, 130. Shifting to early I think cause the mph to go down. My shift light comes on at 71-71 hundred rpm and it did not come on during a few shifts. I think the et came down due to my 60ft and not spinning tires when shifting to next gear.
I need a bigger hot side for more power! still running a street port ( no pins ) and stock running gear.

I use 108 octane fuel, C12.
water is two M5 nozzles that come on at 5psi and full on at 25psi. pump is a 150psi shurflow pump. Devilsown controller.
Boost in first is 20psi
second was 23psi
third is 25psi
fourth was 25psi and dropping to 20psi.
All #s are +/- a lb or two.
Looking at adding another waste gate to allow the motor to breath easier. Then maybe the boost wont fall off in 4th gear.

Dude....get some bias ply front runners before you kill yourself. Your all over the track. It is totally unsafe running fat radial tires with the bias ply ET Streets. I am using some Firestone 16 inch skinnies mounted on FC spare wheels. After mounting those the car tracks as straight as an arrow.
Nice runs!

andrew, really! Some one offered me a set of front runners just the other day. Thanks for the info.
J, lots of folks say the same things about my shifting, slow and at a too low rpm.
Currently adding another wastegate to see if my boost will hold at 25psi. I like to think the FC can do a 10.6et and 136mph with it's current mods. Hoping the added gate will allow more cfm go through the motor for more power. Then hope for a low 10 second pass.

AFRs in the low 10s.. Trying to get it to the high 10s but the power is there with afrs in the low 10s, why go to what everyone think/says the best power is, 11.5. When I do get it on the dyno I will try to tune to a leaner afr, it's hard to monitor at the track. Running low 10s afr and shifting at 7200rpms may extend the motor life. With the water injection, the motor is clean and preventing carbon build up from the low afrs.
Just installed another waste gate to see if my boost will hold at 25psi. If this works, then the boost will go up a few lbs. Now running two 38mm gates. Looks like rain this week so #s will have to wait a week or so.

J,
How much more power is 11.5 vs 10.5? I know leaner is faster but wondering how much faster is the 1 point afr. And how much more "stress" it puts on the motor? And my timing, will I have to retard some? right now it's at 20deg BTDC. One of the other things I think about when trying to tune to 11.5 is that leaves my tuning margin very small. Trying to tune at the track is a little crazy anyways, guess I'll have to put the thing on the rollers.
thanks
chuck
