Last Wednesday the scoreboards died at wsid. Ironically they did get my 60 footer 330 and 660. The 1000foot didnt come up or an et.
60 was 2.109
330 6.080
660 9.335 @ 75.40 mph.

What do you estimate the 1/4 mile was likely to have been?

Looking at my timeslip at 15.2 and trying to compare the gain at different distances, prolly around 14.7 or 14.6

Heeheh.Tell Striker it was just a test run..wasnt really planning anything big. 4:11 diff went in and found my injectors were clogged after having it tuned. So injectors that work have been installed and the shifts are god knows where.The car was misfiring and konking out on acceleration .I still raced it. Ironically the 6250 rpm shifts seem to have cleaned the misfire problem away.Its going in again to be retouched and get the 4:11 diff reprogrammed.It should go better you would think. I am hoping for a 14.5 or better once its sorted. I am surpirsed by this run.It seemed pretty good.Darn timing board.

Judging by the mph at the 660 footer and the time I have a number in mind but interested to get a few more expert opinions .

When I ran my 14.773 660 footer was 9.461 @73.86mph.That is 0.126 difference.If it didnt gain anything more it would have run a 14.647 or better
