GLD next week...

[Pro Stock John]

I just want one more shot at a 13.0x stock.

[SYCK SS]

today seems like an almost perfect day. ill let you know if ill be able to make it

[Pro Stock John]

Aight, track hasn't been crowded at all on Tuesdays so I'm sure we would notice each other.

I'm using these to figure out the potential DA:

I used to pull weather data from Weather Underground.

Weather Forecast & Reports - Long Range & Local | Wunderground | Weather Underground

Ran it through this calculator

Density Altitude Calculator - English/Metric

[SYCK SS]

How'd it go? I wasn't able to make it

[Pro Stock John]

Air was great, I tried, but couldn't beat my 13.15@106...





Note the 1.94 60 foot on stock tires on the 13.20 run!

Oh well, no more running stock that's it!!!

[SYCK SS]

So close! I think that's right up there with one of the best 60ft times on the stock tires. Impressive!!

[Pro Stock John]

Yeah I'm thinking if I wanted to run stock forever, I'd eventually run a 12.9 and cut even better 60's, but I'd like to return to the 12's (and 11's and 10's).

[SYCK SS]

Yeah, once you get a taste of those lower times its very hard to be satisfied with a stock time for long. I still have yet to experience a 10 second pass myself. So maybe in time with this beast and it'll happen.

[Pro Stock John]

Yeah i think I gave it my best to try to run a 12.99 stock, but as I look at the slips, and other folk's times, I am either just not making enough power, getting some knock, or my car shifts a bit lower than I'd like. I did hit 84 in the 1/8 my first time out, but not on my best slip. I'd need to run 84 and clip a 107 trap speed to hit 13.doh, and it hasn't happened. Last nights air was pretty good for running, but I ran about the same as the first time. I was thinking I could have put in some 100 octane to mitigate knock if I was getting any but I'm still happy with the 13.15 so I'm done.

My times got worse, as it got colder, and us street tires guys were ripping up the starting line it was harder to hook. I bet if I had gotten there earlier I would have run a bit better as the track went over over the ensuing 3 hours.

[SYCK SS]

Hey 12's are more fun anyways. I'm excited to see what is coming from you. With your previous builds and experience its gotta be good.

[TonyNo]

What was the time on your best run? Would be interesting to look up the DA.

[Pro Stock John]

I left the slips at work, I'll post up tomorrow.
