Track update 3/24

[Dusty Bradford]

Went again tonight. Temps in the low 40's so practically no one was there. They had to spray the track just for me but they would only prep it to around 40 feet so track was really bad.

1st pass was a 1.46....5.57....133.7

2nd and third passes were attempts to lower 60's foot by using the boost controller. 3rd pass I got the 60' down to 1.40 but right at the 60 foot mark the car would spin pretty bad, just not enough traffic.

After the 3rd pass we found a small crack in the crossover where the wastegate is welded so we called it a night.

I did try staging the car and leaving on a pro tree the last two passes to make sure myself and the car could build the boost quickly enough for a good leave. .402 and .408 light :wink: and the boost was at 7psi in just enough time.

I'll fix the crossover and hopefully warmer weather will be back for next weekend.

Good Job

That is awesome considering the track conditions and I'm sure once you hit the track on a good day we will see some 1.3x 60's

Keep up the good work, you are making it look too easy!

Dusty,

I am super impressed with how you are able to race this thing!
You should do very well in Memphis and Orlando.
Heck you may even convert a couple people at other big race this year.
I need to fly you out here to finish my junk!!!

:biggrin: Great job! Let me know what I can do.

Well, I'm not afraid to run the dog out of it to make sure it's ready. The nice thing is it run .50's without hurting it.

The other big race huh..... I'll be the only guy under the Hartline Performance tent with the pro stock towel hiding the engine combo

Thanks Cal. I'm ready for a good track to turn the AMS on up.

D. I cant wait to see this critter run. Are you going to be running at Hunstville this next weekend?


Did you not use Blue's grill?

 

[Dusty Bradford]

The grille is hanging in the garage. It'll be on for the big huntsville race. I should be at Huntsville testing again next weekend then the big race is April the 6th. I'll be there Friday thru Sunday

Hope to see you there Dusty. Sounds like things are progressing very well!
If you need anything, holler.
