Thread: What time will this run?

  1. #1

    Default What time will this run?

    I looked through all the posts and didn't see a time for this combo. What time do you think it will run in the 1/4?

    RC
    300 rwhp
    305/45R17" drap radials
    3.90 gears
    3000 stall

    Should and reality can be different on a bunch of variables.

    Perfect scenario? maybe crack the 14 sec barrier. First runs around 14.5-14.7. Don't get disappointed if expectations were higher. As you learn the launch scenario, your times will improve to consistent low 14's. With tire airing experiments, could go high 13's.
    Don't try to put too much heat in those tires. Some of my best runs on 80* days would to drive around the water box and straight to staging w no burn out. Track was hot enough.

    How tall are your tires? If 28", you'll leave with the 3.91's. 26" and you'll leave with 4.20's
    What kills these trucks is the 2-3 shift. Martin Seine's valve body makes that shift crisp or maybe Flyin Ryan can improve that as well as my truck becomes pig rich at that shift point.

    Msaine valve body, 3rd gear TSS lock out, Stage 2 trans. Custom tune on the dyno. 28" tire, drag radial tire says, little to no burnout.

    If it's actually 300whp it should go mid 13s @100-103ish

    It will be dynoed in a couple of weeks, then we will know. March or April, I will take it to the strip.
