Track night

[Michael30815]

Ok, i went to the track tonight to see if my car could do 11"s, ive never race before at a track, just on the street. This was my time slips, first on the left, second on the right. Are these times ok with my setup i have (signature) and considering ive never done this before, and could this be a 11 second car with the right driver.

What boost level, chip/timing. Anything else done to the engine? (cam, heads etc)

Second slip looks pretty good for street tires.

Launching with 4 pounds of boost, stock cam, stock heads

Fix that 60 foot and your there easy. Was there much wheel spin?

The car has very poor mph. Look at the 1/8 to 1/4, only gaining 18mph. What converter is in there?

just looking back at my old time slips, When i ran a 12 in the 1/4 this is what it looked like.

60 foot 1.91
1/8 7.92
1/8 mph 90.60
1/4 12.26
1/4 mph 112.56

U beat me to it..... not making any power yet..... need more than 20 mph pickup on a stockish car..... just the 60' improvement would net a 11 sec slip IMHO based off the 2nd slip....

Stock converter, looking for a good place in the georgia regional area to build me a trsnsmission to hold up to 500-600 horsepower. Im not mechanically incline to take it out. Prefer to drive it to the place and come back to get it.
