First time to the track

[czimpel]

I was hoping for a 12.50, but came away with a 12.72. Needless to say, I'm still happy. My 60' times are very slow. Even with bringing the boost up to 10psi on the line, I still couldn't get a good solid launch. It would jump, then stall waiting for the boost to hit again. I'm thinking a higher stall would help tremendously.

I was also being an idiot hot lapping, and not thinking of my trans temps. The last run I did had a 2-3 flare. Hopefully I didn't do too much damage, the fluid doesn't smell burnt, but it was hot.

I'm Car #7116

That's pretty good all in all at that mph. I find my turbo hits harder if it's spooling up at the time I let go of the brakes rather than trying to leave at a certain boost level. You'll develop a feel for it. HTH and keep up the good work.

Thanks. That's a good tip, I'll try that next time at the track.

could stand to improve the R/T a smidge too

Is 4.42 not a good R/T?

I did get a chance to kill a Rousch Mustang though.

Here's a sweet pick my wife took after the boost came in.
