Back out on the streeters now, slippery track, wheel spin and hot air.
13.0 @121 11.7 @124.5 11.5 @124.5 might be able to fit in one more pass.

Reckon the tyre slip happens at the start or the end mate?
I know when I study the bike telemetry the tyre slip at the top end can be huge, like the front wheel be doing 270km/h while the rear tyre is pushing close to 290km/h with the difference being tyre slip, and this is just pushing air... I imagine pushing a big old Falcon through the traps at over 200km/h is going to result in something similar....

OK so after sometime Block was able to take it out on a new set of radials.
Track was slippery as, but 2 new PB's 1/4 mile mph (radials) and 1/8 mile mph (radials), now just need to get to a prepped track. The original 10.83 was on a 1.551 06ft and this 10.84 on a 1.648 60ft so some interesting times to come ![]() ![]()

Latest (time slips to come). Yesterday at the Test and Tune was the perfect track prep to run a PB.
The first pass for the day albeit hitting the brakes not to run a 10 felt strong. We thought a new PB would be set ![]() ![]() 1st pass car ran a bit over 101mph half track the rest of the runs seemed to be lacking any power (although the difference at half track was less than 2mph). This was evident after 3 runs when the plugs were pulled and showed to be runnning lean. So it looks like time has finally come to upgrade to a decent tank/fuel pick up ie 1/2" and maybe a fuel pressure guage near the carby. Thats drag racing better luck next time. 10.91 and a few low 11s for yesterday before the rain set in :(

That is extremely fast especially on street rubber,a few of my mates struggle to run that in full race trim.
