Not to rain on your parade, but the "tune up" is no secret. With X amount of parts, you have to run X amount of boost and timing and run it lean and mean...etc..A similar combo car went 10.x @ 135 down here years ago. I would like to see a race weight too for arguement sake...
Regardless, still impressive times. Lots of people with more, running slower.

So the car makes around 735-750 to the tire. Compression is probably 9:1 or so. 26-28 psi, 30 + degrees of times in low gears, triming out timing up top, and that is probably a "cold" tune up..
IAT on the pass?

I'll take a stab at it. All the methanol you can throw at it, 28#'s of boost and pulling fuel out of the chip to see when the mph stops going up. 02's reading in the mid to low .700's. Timing in the 25* range. No knock. That's what I would do.
Oh Russ that knock I was having was the plugs, gone now.

Even if someone nails down the tune, you not telling anyway, so it is a mute point.
Good luck, nice times, and bring a shovel and bucket everytime you run it, so you can pick up the pieces....

Ya..I race..just don't post about it.(not my thing) Currently, car is down but will be back out soon...little hybrid mustang with a stroker with some tricks!(thanks laz and lonnie)
In all seriousness, what you are doing is impressive. I just had to bust you ballz a little, since everyone else was licking them. The theory everyone is missing is with the fuel and meth, how meth/alky works in the combustion chamber..besides the obvious stuff..
