BlackJack, it's good to at least see a video of a run this time. This was more of a teaser video than the last 3 second clip you posted Get the little things worked out crank the boost

More boost, methanol intercooling, more grip, free flowing exhaust....you should be in the 13's easy with that setup.

More boost is on the way. I'm tuned at 15psi at my current altitude, and about to start tuning for 18psi as soon as I drop in the new fuel pump and turn up the fuel pressure a bit. Grip wasn't a problem. Once the fueling is worked out, if I still only hit 13's, I'm packing it in for the season and getting ready for deployment.

Yeah I was talking about C2 hitting 13's. I'll bet you'll run easily in the low 12's, if not faster.

heh....it's not set in stone yet. I gotta do a top-end tear down and check everything thouroughly. Scoping the inside of the cylinder will only show so much. If there's anything else wrong, then May 2 is off.

That sucks too, you're getting here about the time I'm leaving. Where you going? I'm nearly on the border myself (Sierra Vista).

Lol, I'm probably living in Sierra Vista or Tucson. I just got hired as a BPA, I have to go to Artesia pretty soon, but then I'll be moving out there.

Interesting......NHRA altitude correction factors calls 14.5@96mph at 3,000ft elevation as equivalent to 14.01@100.5mph at sea level.
jeez, if I'm almost into the 13's @ sea level on 5 cylinders.....just wait.

I don't think the Navy likes having Army guys on their ships to begin with, but I'm sure if I tried to make 1/4 mile runs, the car is going to get wet.

well.. you'd clearly have a little math to do... obviously the ship isn't 1/4 mile long!

Does this mean I'm going to have to equip the car with a tailhook instead of wheelie bars?
