Atco Dragstrip
MikeCG, TomsSVX and I were at Atco this morning for a Test and Tune, my very first drag strip drive. We were joined by Mike621 and Its Just Eric, there to spectate
 Will let Tom and Mike tell you about their drives. Tom had a bit of misfortune. My first two slips (I'm car 111):  Then, I asked Tom to drive my car to show me how it should be done.  He said he wouldn't try to get everything out of it, that he would baby the clutch a little bit at the start.  But, he still managed to best my time by 0.3 sec. He said he thought there were still a few more tenths to be taken out of the time with a more aggressive rev's and clutch drop at the start.Results were 0.3 better than my best. When you want it done right, go to an expert.

are you saying that you popped your motor too?? I do not have an EGT gauge nor a wideband... I was monitoring the knock sensors which did nothing for me just after I cleared the ECU... Anyway... I may be in for a motor from you... know what you want for the lower mileage one?? I have my eye of a 52k engine but the seller may not want to part with it... So let me know what u r thinking

I made out fine. I didnt set any new records. Here's the stats off my best run:
R/T: .669 60': 1.884 330': 5.744 1/8: 8.987 MPH: 74.62 1000: 11.761 1/4: 14.142 MPH: 95.70 That was my fastest for the day. Strangely it felt like my slowest. But that could be because I was lined up beside a 10 Second car....... I was faster than both Tom and my fathers Trailblazer SS. But considering Tom was having problems and nuked his motor, I wont consider it a win. Had a pretty good time all in all. Now I need to figure out how to test the software Tom didnt get a chance to run.

So, are we coming to the conclusion that the stock engine doesn't like 12psi of boost
 Mike - any traction issues on your 14.1 run? What rpm did you drop the clutch at? -Bill
