Do you have the data from these runs? 60 foot, 1000, etc.

Thanks,
Nate

60ft:1.72/1.75/1.77 The 1.72 my cluch was sliping a little.I had just raced a twin turbo viper and he wanted to go agin. so he lost twice!:lol With my car I have to give the cluch a little time in between runs or it will start to slip. But dont fear once it cools it has never given me any trouble.
1000ft:95.31/95.64/94.63

Hey Bony
Good to hear from you. I am sure you read I decided to have my Whipple installed hear instead of Fresno. We will have to meet up some other time. Any plans to come back to Scottsdale. How sideways do you think I can get with the Whipple? It might be worth watching:lol
My launch is simple if the track is good I will leave at 5000 RPM If it is relay good 5500 RPM. I just walk it out. I try to let the clutch out evenly as I floor it.
I have tryed dumping the clutch (like I used to do in my Vipers) this always makes the car bog or fall on its face. That technique does not seem to work with these cars at all. I hope this helps.

Hello Kurt,
You stopped my heart once,.... that is enough. I will say your reflexes are hell of lot faster than mine. How you recovered that night is beyond me. Careful with the Whipple, you have at least two hundred more ponies.
See you next January, when you leave in Fresno you sure as hell don't go to Arizona in the Summer.
God Bless America,
daniel
