Holy 60'

[moparjim]

Now that I posted all that. This came up in FB a minute ago. I says there will be TNT with prep on SAT and Sun as long as weather holds of course.
The forecast is for a high of 5c so around 40f. 🤞

Well looks like you'll need some extra timing added this week then
Question is if you go for 9s on pump gas I'm assuming that means no octane boost?

It doesn't look good to even try for that as the weather forecast has turned for the worse.. I think he was stuck at 10.01/10.02 and not on pump gas I don't think.
If that happens I'm not sure the track will bother to open the week after.
Nick and Carl are trying to get their car sorted out for I assume a race in Florida where they reset the 4cyl et record 3 or 4 times back in 2019. So they will be busy with that and Ronald and Celine will be headed to Florida soon to escape the weather here.
All this to say this weekend may be it for me and I won't be able to get out.

I may have to wait untill spring and the conditions aren't as good in spring. That is when you realize -1000' DA is not always the same -1000 DA and what it does for performance. There is more to it than just that number.

I think there is quite a bit more in it than we have achieved so far. So that means there is a possibility of no pulley untill after next fall.

Oh you have more in it . It was just the initial test to deal with the COT crap .

That's a good point on the booster.
The 94 here goes to crap in the winter due to the Ethanol. I store the car with 91 with no E.
So either way I would likely add some to be safe. I do use booster often as insurance.
5gal of MS109 is $230 here so not exactly in my price range.

The problem is now I want to see what can be done like this. So The pulley and injectors will be on the shelf for awhile.
At this rate it may take me a few years to get to try E85/E98.🤔😂

I agree be safe. The winter blend being around in our good air time is why I bought a drum of e85. Didn't want good air and bad fuel.

I have been writing down temp, humidity, barometer along with DA

I also keep track of grains. I still don't get how I can see the grains at 25 and humidity at 70%🤷.
I find the baro over 30 helps a bunch on my car. Unfortunately I haven't had that this year yet.

it was 30.35 last friday

I should probably track water grains also since I can

It was something like that last Friday here when I did a quick test. Then it warmed up and messed up the day at the track.

I actually don't blame you . I suggest you plug the JMS back in though or put the bigger injectors you have in . But now I'm curious on what you can ring out if it with tuning only .

Looking like you should have wrote a tune with a few more degrees just for fun 😊 I bet you’d been tempted using it after that pass

I used 1 with 1 degree added and I didn't like it so I went back to stock timing.
James will look at the log and tell me if I over reacted.
Still happy with the run and to be out this late in the year.

It’s why I gave up on my 93 tune for racing. Fuel quality gets much worst when we have good air.

Trans and some other settings will be a big a big gain. As you have shown

 

[moparjim]

We probably already have winter fuel here already. So that isn't helping things I'm sure.

I'll guarantee your fuel blend is worst now than it was during summer.
