    Default 10.63 @ 128.33 in Sacatomatoes

    Best so far for 2013. Maybe I might have another chance at another day at the track in December - we'll see.

    I didn't have my "stuff" together at Sac - but it still went OK in spite of my efforts to mess it up. It wouldn't hook like it should - and I never got it cleaned-up at the hit, which would probably have made it worse anyway. Such as it is, here's the slip for my "big adventure" to lower DA than the truck has ever seen at 646'.

    Uhhhh, in the right lane of course.

    Glad you made it down to real air Duner, even if it didn't turn out the way you wanted it too. I think you did damn good for having virtually no sleep.. lol.

    [BlakDak71] : I don't run oil, I run a special blend consisting of Hellman's mayo and the tears of a pregnant mermaid

    [Kotta390] : My electric water pump puts out too much fuel at idle and is not a variable pump which makes it overheat in the summer at idle if I sit too long

    Hahaha... it wasn't just the no sleep on the trip, it was the no sleep for the week preceding the trip that kicked my ass. I picked a fine time to quit drinking Monster.

    Thanks!

    But I sure wanted to take a bigger bite out of that record than that!
    All my "coulda, woulda, shoulda's" didn't add up right.

    I gained 2 tenths on my 60' time.
    I picked up 4 mph.

    They prepped the track well enough for 4wd diesels that don't care about track prep.

    Boost vs NA as well... different gains in DA changes...

    There's no reason to try and compare density altitude changes to any of Duner's times at Sac. The DA simply wasn't a factor there.

    1.The track was poorly prepped for his power level. IE... He slipped when the 2 step was working (somewhat) correctly.

    2. When the 2 step was rich, he was bogging outta the hole.

    If he had gotten a clean run, with a clean 2 step and traction, then the DA differences would come into play.

    About 8-hours worth of sleep and one more day at TnT would have helped considerably!

    Slipping the starter a $20 to spray a little bit of VHT would have probably worked wonders as well.

    Isn't the traction argument not one of Kris's argument?

    I'm pretty sure diesel soot isn't the best traction aid.... and NEVER be the next pair after jet cars have run either.
