Hey, glad to hear you made it out there! I'll be going just about every Wednesday night so I'll see you out there maybe. Nice times for being a first timer in the car!!!!!!!!!

If there's anything I can help you with from RPM let me know!

Seems like your pressure is good but something is delaying the flow somehow. Maybe loose connection on the solenoids as well.

Yeah there isn't any teflon tape on there either...it's all the teflon paste material. I'm gonna check out the solenoids too when I get home from work.
i'm having weird issues too. i finally used the 80 shot and nothing happened. i can't explain it. mph remained the same and my times were terrible.. mostly because of the terrible 60s ( 2.0.)
i got home. checked the wiring with the car off and the solenoids clicked.. then tried it with the car on. i disconnected the nx wire that goes to the plate and there was nx getting there.. and you could hear the car get the extra fuel. i can't explain it..
[Frown]
guess it's a good thing it didn't work.. cuase i forgot to flip my chip to the nx tune [Eek!] [Mad] [Frown]

I think I found my problem...the section of the TB linkage that has the spring on it was getting caught up on the braided lines going to the nozzle. So I think the problem was the WOT switch fully activating once I stepped on it and not a problem with the window switch or clogged lines, etc. I re-did lines and hopefully that'll take care of it.

Our Dart struggled with "new slick" issues, as twisted(Tony) was witness to. 3 times!!!

but:
12.99 @ 104
12.90 @ 106
13.08 @ 104

traction was an issue...new slicks, trying to find the right psi to run and a starting line that varied almost 30 degrees all day.

The Camaro did well. went to the 1/4 finals in Super Pro... .493 red (ouch)

Tony...that car is amazing...had I not been plagued with tire issues all morning, I would have come hang out more.

I had to remove the L/R wheel twice to re-seal the bead screws, and the R/R once....it wasnt fun, but we didnt miss a single run.

You Mustang boys put on a great show...keep coming...the place loves ya for it!

I wont be there with the Dart on 3/1, but the 9 second Camaro will.

Nice runs Craig...

That sucks that you had problems with your slick. Nothing worse then going all the way to the track and having issues.

Hopefully I'll see you over there again soon.

Tony
