F.A.S.T. at Bradenton 1/4 mile *Video Added*

we had a pretty good time I think. The track was set up so they wouldnt let more then 60 cars in, I doubt they had more then 50.

Made for great test&tune action, because as soon as your ready to go down the track, the lanes were empty.

who was there:
Rob & Mona w/ Sy
Charles w/ PTE54 ty
Keith w/ PTE63 sy
Adam w/ Sy
Ian w/Sy
Greg w/Sy
Christian w/ nothing
2 SyTy Holandites (cant remember their names :-? )


Adam and I with the same setups were searching to break into the 12s.
Adam ran consistant back to back 13.1's.
I started off the day with a 13.6 and kept clocking it down, 13.4, 13.3 and ended the day with a hot 13.0@102. The last run took a 7-8psi launch (truck builds slow on the line) to crank out a 1.80 60'.

This after a previous best for adam at 13.45@95, and mine a 14.0@97

Rob sy put a smile on his face as well, after rebuilding the whole truck, he managed a mid 14 at 88ish mph in orlando. today he got 4 runs in, first meeting his goal of 13's with a 13.9. His strongest run didnt register on the lights, but he did manage to get down to a 13.7 before his upper radiator hose was too chewed up to run again.

Keith and Charles were both running under par, Keith kicked out a low 12, but couldnt do it consistantly. Charles, plauged by several issues and a mountain of knock retard, spent the day in the 13-14 range.

It was definately a good day for the stock trucks, and a pointer in the right direction for keith and charles.

I ran a best of 12.38@115.. I was hoping to skip the 12's but I guess it'll do for now..

Adam and Ian, can you tell me what your set-ups are? I believe I may have a somewhat similar setup on my truck.

Thanks,

We had 54 cars which was right in line with what we wanted and great for the short time frame I had to work with.

The track is always well prepped and the best in S. Florida by far but extra detial is given on private rental days.

Glad you guys made it out and now that I know of this site I will notfy you guys well in advance when we have the next one planned.

im dialed in at around 17.5 psi...

however, im having a problem with boost bleeding off.


i had a strong low end until about the 1/8th and id go through the traps with only around 14.8-15.2psi

not sure if its my bleeder setup from the external gate, leakage from the wired shut stock gate or knock retard pulling out boost/timing in the top end (wasnt running diacom)


consistant 13.1s at 100-102mph


best run of the day was:

13.108@102.35, 1.78 60'

i was running consistant 1.7s all day long also.... i wasnt doing huge launches for fear of my slow failing TC giving out on me....regardless, i did get braver each time with a little more boost, but to no noticable results....
i was leaving at around 5-6psi



little disappointed on not being able to break 12s because of the boost prob, but happy to finally see some results from the last time at the track....


i think with some slight tuning and getting the boost solid, i have a high 12 sec slip coming my way..... same thing goes for ian.



everyone went home happy.... no one broke anything...well, almost.... robert had to stop early because of a radiator hose being chewed by the alternator..... my tranny still works..... ian went 13.0s on just a hayden aux cooler :)
