Mark's 1G Winter Projects

I remember splitting the front of my case in half at the shootout, but mine wasn't nearly that bad. You know you're supposed to get out of it when smoke and parts start flying out, don't you?

All tuned up! I did a roll on in second gear and spun the tires super bad. I tried again in third and the tires spun a little at 7800 RPM! This was on a flat entrance ramp with the QTP’s on it! It has never spun 3rd gear, ever. The spool is a little slower, from what I can tell about 200 RPM. It makes 40 psi by 6200 RPM from a 3rd roll on. I also raised the rev limiter to 9.5K. It’s been awhile since I drove it so it’s hard to tell from my memory if it’s faster. The only thing I could do is to compare a 3rd gear roll on run from last year. It is 0.45 seconds faster from 6K RPM to 8.5K RPM. With 3 psi less boost too. Hopefully the lazier spool will make for a little less of a violent launch off of the line and save the drive train a little. I’m now 100% excited to see if I can beat my personal best MPH and time, right off of the trailer!

It sounded like a shotgun went off in the car, I was scared out of it!
