ran again today getting a 12.5 @ ? mph (the track messed up and it said 28 mph) i also logged the run and i had..... (drum roll please).... 20 counts of knock through 3rd and 4th gear!:eek:. this run was done without really touching my settings from last week so the 12.4 was probably at about the same level of shitty tune as today

yeah, i think the car may have some more potential;) . that is if i don't take an axe to it first.

it seems like false knock since i have been trying to tune it for some time to no avail. it also is gonna need a trans soon (grinding slowly getting worse in 2nd & 3rd) so i don't think it will be in any shape to hit 11's for a little while. i think with no knock in 3rd and 4th the car is capable of lower 12's with a much higher trap, like 3-4mph higher than it is. my timing gets pulled pretty bad at the top end...

just got the car dyno'd yesterday and it's best was 287whp and 305 wtq. seemed kind of low for my times, but i guess the higher torque has something to do with it. i know there are people making a good deal more power than me and running worse times? dunno why, i guess driving...
 
Looking at your slip i'd say your a pretty darn good driver. Your mph seems a little low, could be from the detonation you said you were getting. Good job none the less, thats pretty imprsseive being full weight and pump gas. Do you have a mods list somewhere or could you post your mods?

You ought to try some race gas sometime, it really helps to keep the detonation away.
