First time at the track ever :D

So ran my truck and here is the results.


1st run (Losing track virginity ) I lined up in 4wd went to build boost the lights dropped to quickly so no boost just a straight launch.

times

R/T: .690
60 foot: 3.096
1/8: 11.806
1000: 15.248
1/4 : 18.166

Now some things I should mention.... at the 1000 foot mark I started getting a bucking coming from the front end and losing power. I think a Bad ICP

Second run again this is my second run ever on a track. I actually boosted her up and did a good launch. again like clock work at 1000 foot mark bucking and loss of power at the 1000 ft mark.

R/T: 0.339
60 foot: 2.568
1/8: 11.035
1000: 14.29
1/4 : 17.308

I have some gremlins I need to hunt down. again I think its the ICP sensor. also not knowing what boost I am launching at means I will not be consistent till I have a gauge


On another note.... that run was the most awesome 17 seconds of my LIFE I am so hooked.

dont worry about your reaction time, sit there for as long as you need. build the right boost/rpm and that will cut you 60' down alot and give you a better 1/4 time
