Default 3.20 FATS at the dragstrip :o)

I had been toying with the idea of doing a FATS pull at the dragstrip for the following reasons:
- do a pull at minimum weight (when normally driving, I always have my spare)
- do a pull with exhaust dumps open (don't need to deal with Mr Law Enforcement driving with dumps around town)
- no doubt about the road being flat

Well, I kept the idea in the back of my head, and then on one of my last runs on Sat, I missed 3rd gear. At that moment, I decided to hit the brakes quick to slow a bit, then tossed it in 3rd and did a pull the rest of the way down the strip. Below are the results of that pull. Even though it was 52F outside, sitting in the staging lanes builds up the heat, so note the 110F IATs. That's more like an 85F day when cruising. Thus, I could expect a little lower with this same setup, but I'm happy I at least have this log...

Also, here's a new graph I added to v10.7 of the graphing template to make it easier to post FATS times as parts of images:

Default Holy timing batman!

Race gas?

Good job as usual, Mark. You've gotta get some scoot out-of the hole and nab your self a mid-11.

Default thanks Mike - yeah, 104, but actually lower than expected....

I think partially due to this gas being a year old, and partially to the higher IATs.

Here was a 1st-4th pass on 104 last year (120.81 trap):

Here's what I've been seeing on 93 (APR v2):

Default interesting to see where APR's narrowband is.

looks like .85, .86 is where it's at. :-) Great numbers Mark!

Default Bear in mind this FATS is after a dragstrip launch and two gears at WOT.

I'm looking forward to my local race gas resource getting in more racing 104.


Quick Reply: 3.20 FATS at the dragstrip :o)
