Default Re: Blog of the building of a Challenger Drag Pak

The run and launch was intentional it was the first time the car has tracked anywhere, (intentional except the rollover on staging, I was paying attention to electronics) and well....

It crept off the brakes , and I wanted to see at what pressure and rpm, but at that point I got in it, I got the data I needed,.

Shift points were at 6500 adn 6800, 11 secs is more like it btw....let off around 1000 was only going to run a short 1/8th but well it felt so good I kept in it....

My daily driver is a 13(13.2-5 with street tune) sec car so I can say I know what 13 seconds feels like all day long....lol.

2 different things shaking one out and racing it, at least in my book, that was a very aggressive shakeout run for me (for a 1st pass on a car) about 5 or 6 more and shell be ready for a full hard pass.

Back on the road to Atl for Thursday T&T then div.

Assuming we dont break anything on Thrusday

Yall are gonna REALLY love my typing now I got a new laptop keys are odd....like everything around here.

GatorWraps did the wrap, and got some real estate for doing it. They did wraps, DiyAutoTune covered the rest of the wrap cost as well as much (all) our electronics and wiring costs , and tuning, and on and on.

Jerry did the Video , I thought it was pretty cool. So I thought I would post a link.

Cheers all...

Id never seen a wrap done before and always wondered how it wsa done.

The run.....not so much.....I get about 13 seconds from weak launch to where you let off.....

Better work on that......!!
