Ok so it was the very first time this truck has been down the track, and everyone acts like it takes so much to get into the 12s. haha:db:
Well i'm in sacramento and it was about as nice of a track day as i have ever raced i think. I was running my street tires 305/55/18 nitto 404s with about 30-32psi. less than a quarter tank of fuel, and a few misc things in the box of the truck; probably like 50 lbs or so. The trucks fighting weight is about 4900lbs or so and i'm only 175lbs.
well here is the rundown: the night started at about 64 degrees and it was down to 46 dregrees by the time i got home.
1st run: l 2nd run: | 3rd run: | 4th run: | 5th run
1.916 l 1.886 | 2.25 | 1.861 | 1.876
5.354 l 5.32 | 5.837 | 5.279 | 5.295
8.231 l 8.2 | 8.794 | 8.15 | 8.163
85.467 l 85.504 | 83.972 | 85.601 | 85.686
10.718 l 10.691 | 11.325 | 10.64 | 10.648
12.857 l 12.834 | 13.493 | 12.786 | 12.792
104.977 l 104.734 |104.696 | 104.495 | 104.618
As you can see the truck was very consistant. the 3rd run i tried to launch a little harder, and it was the only run in the right lane, so it's hard to know if it was just the lane or the tires couldn't grip. I'm betting on the tires being the culprit. Going by my Hp calculator. with a 104.99mph trap with a weight of 5150 it comes out to about 464.99hp.
I must have been putting the power down. I just need some sticky tires so i can launch the truck on the torque convertor harder. :dw:
Any input is appreciated.
