Timeslips and Data
« on: October 09 2016, 06:47:07 PM »
Back from 3 days at the track. Saturday was rained out...but the track dried enuf by 3'oclock to let us test or grudge race till dusk. I decided to dial in the rear suspension. Track wasn't the best with all the rain and the humidity at 83 percent. I decided to leave at 2500 RPM's on the track and go with the best 60. On 23 PSI the car went 7.18 at 100.8 late Saturday afternoon.

Fast forward to this morning. The temp had dropped from 64 to 52, with the humidity dropping to 48 and the grains of water to 38. I added 10 points of fuel to low and high gear to compensate. Got the shock setup correct and cracked off a 1.57 launch and went 6.81 at 102.3 on 23 PSI. Low gear fueling was 823 with high gear checking in at 776. Timing remained unchanged from 1 week ago.

I came back around...turne d the boost up 1 pound...and went back out and boosted it to the moon. Blew the tires off it immediately with the shift lite coming on almost instantly. I have it set at 6 grand...and if it goes off, I'm outta the throttle.

The 7.17 run was in first round eliminations with the boost turned back to 23...and zilch time for spooling.

Identical .527 reaction times in race conditions. Maybe I'm not getting too old.

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Did you get any logs of these runs to post up? Us less learned want to see just how this is done.

Thanx

I have an old IBM Thinkpad that has no internet...and when I plug a stick in...nothing happens...that's why I post all relevant data.

I've been at this for 13 years. I'm at the track every weekend...eith er testing...raci ng...or practicing. It leaves zero time for family...and I mean zero. I have a back ground as an auto tech and automotive machinist. I came from the NA world...and to say turbocharging was a huge learning curve...at least for me...would be an understatement . I have friends that are there for wrenching, engine and transmission building, technical support, and I do my own tuning. I live, eat and breathe this stupid black car 24/7...and I don't recommend it. I've gotten good at it...but there's a price to pay for it.

No, I don't log anything. I basically cross my fingers and hope for the best. The data I post is fictitious.
