[QUOTE]Originally posted by TheBrain: [QB] Well, here it goes The first run was a 12.47 @ 109+ w/1.74 60ft launched at 4000rpm 2nd run was a 12.37 @ 109+ w/1.77 60ft launched @ 5000rpm 3rd run was aborted so it didn't count (mis adjusted my clutch and backed out of the lanes Real 3rd run was after changing to a 70mm TB and was a 12.44 @ 109+ w/1.71 60ft and a .507 reaction :eek: launched at 5500 rpm 4th run was launched bouncing off the rev limiter (6600) and lasted 6" (that's about how far the car moved) Sheared off the left rear axle, wasted the carrier, and the splines of the axle are stuck in the spider gear My clutch was slipping all night w/slicks so the times weren't as good as they could have been The time slips are in the car (which is down at the shop) so I am not sure of the exact numbers If I fix the rearend and clutch to withstand the slicks, then the tranny will break. Since it is a neverending process, I am seriously considering retiring the car from track duty. We'll see Brian Edited to add what happened to the rear end, forgot that part of the story ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
