New ETs from Norwalk!!!
 
Well, I went to Norwalk yesterday (120 miles north of C-Bus) for a private test and tune put on by the Central Ohio F-Body Association. Cool guys. About 30-35 Camaros, Corvettes, Firebirds and about 5 Mustangs. :D

Weather wasn't ideal, but not horrible either. Temps reached 83 degrees with 75% humidity and a good cross wind.

I made 5 passes (could have made 30+ if I wanted to). With a new best of:

12.65 @ 110.02

Mid 12's at 110!!!!! I am very happy. About 20 degrees cooler with less wind and I'm confident it will go 111+mph.

I had two 12.65 runs, a 12.73, a 12.75 and a 12.68 all on drag radials with 60' times in the 1.91 - 1.97 range. I still want to play with the JMS programs. All those time were with 34 degrees total timing and 2% rich fuel curve.

As a side note, a kid in a 00 or 01 Camaro Z28 turned off the shutdown area too quickly and ended up sliding into the grass and then into a big chain link fence. He ended up damaging the front end pretty good, the side was all scratched up as well as the hood. :eek:

Put some slicks on and run an 11 and then i'll be impressed!! :p

J/K Eric, those are nice time there and mph looks great, but with slicks i'm sure you can drop your e.t a bunch more.

what is your combo??

Nice times... I'd be itching to get some slicks on that bad-boy to see how much e.t. you drop... that's just me though :D ...some people like to do it on drag radials.

Have you got some aftermarket axles and a good posi?

I think you could drop nearly a half-second with slicks alone and a good launch ;)

...what about a NX single nozzle kit jetted @ 100hp??? along with some slicks... low 11's? :cool: ...jetted for 150????

This winter I'll be pulling the rear for an Eaton/Auburn, posi, 31 spline Moser/Strange axles, c-clip eliminators, and girdle so that I can bolt up a set of MT ET Streets or all out slicks and go for some 11.90's!!! /me keeping my fingers crossed/ I can't wait as right now I'm 'launching' the car at 2200 rpms while slipping the clutch - which stinks for ET's.

Then comes the ProCharger D-1SC...but I gotta work on the wife for this one considering I'll have to upgrade the entire fuel system, new Pro-M Univer blow-thru MAF, the blower kit, etc. Lots of $$$.

Thanks for the replies. :)
