Novi 1000 track times
I went to Ubly Dragway today to test out the new blower. The temp was pretty hot, around 85+ degrees.
First pass I launched at 4000 rpm and spun like crazy. Then above 5000 rpm it started to break up pretty bad. I went 11.90 @ 123.4 with a 1.99 60 ft.
Next pass I tried a leaner setting in my chip, and it broke up even worse. I had to shift @ 4800, and ran 11.65 @ 120.5
I checked my plugs and they looked pure white.
The gap was also @ .040. I regapped them all to .035, and cranked up the base fuel pressure from 42 @ WOT to 50 psi.
I launch again, and it pulls hard to 6000 rpm with no miss at all. Then I try to powershift 3rd, and MISS!!! DAMN!!! I started to abort the run, the said "FUGGIT!" and jammed it back into 3rd.
I went 12.0 @ 120. I think with a clean shift it would have been a 125 mph pass. I also was only seeing 7 psi down the track. On the street last night and this morning I saw 9-10 psi. But the air temp was in the 50's and not the upper 80's that I ran in at the track.
Now to get it tuned on a dyno, and throw the dry shot on it!
