6.50 60-130 is not bad at 850 wheel in a manual, probably loose .1-.15 or more for the shift, what was the DA and road temp?

 

[CodyK]

Just saw this but the da was -1265 it was cold for Florida. It’s on that info I posted at the top. But I thought it was pretty good for full weight and on a street tire. I’m shooting for 5.9 or better in 2021.

Ran a 6.61 60-130 mph in pretty ideal conditions. Not bad for a 5,585 lbs (including driver and 1/2 tank+ of E85).

5585? You driving a trackhawk I assume?

That is correct.

How much does weight factor in. If you pull a couple hundred pounds out how much time are you saving like .1 or .2?

Good question. I am thinking maybe 150lbs is worth .1s on something this heavy.

That’s what I was thinking. My time changes so much every time I do it. I’m assuming it’s just because of different da and temperature.

Well the DA was around -2,100' on this last run, I ran 7.07 in maybe +300' DA with same mods.

I went from a 7.29 in August at +1,900 down to a 6.50 a couple weeks ago at -1200. Nothing changed on the car just different temps and humidity

I did 5.61 in +100. Now we're having -1500 or better DA every day but unfortunately I can't get traction in this weather to see the difference

5.61 is moving. How much power are you making?

895whp

I thought this was interesting. I was trying to find a stock demon time. I found this video at a drag strip running the full 840hp set up and he ran a 7.39 - 60-130

I’ve been testing out my 60-130 on my WB HC CHARGER automatic transmission and I’m trying to see if these times seem decent for the power level... right around 910whp on e85.
Best time with “cool” florida (60degrees) weather I got was 5.89 and consistently I’ll get 5.91-5.94
70-78 degrees out and DA 1242ft

Sounds about right to me

Sounds about right to me

Thanks, wish it was a little cooler more often down here

DA definitely makes a pretty big difference. Some negative DA and you'd be mid 5's easy

that sounds accurate. Your not gonna get much more out of it without adding raw power. Your at the point where you need serious power to overcome that wind and weight now.

Well boys it’s nice and cool in Florida this morning. Just cracked off a 6.44 which is a new best for me. I’m planning on going smaller upper and adding a lower and pushing for sub 6’s this year. I also want to add an ice tank. I’d love to be able to run a sub 6 in the summer here in Florida
