went to the drags last night, and managed to keep the car in one piece, I know I was like WTF too,

anyway, in the burnouts I got bulk axel tramp to the point in me jumping on the clutch the 2nd I got it,

first run was a near stall off the line, as I was told not to much revs off the lines so I though 2000rpm should be ok, ended up with a 17.46 87.52 reaction .549

2nd run was a 3000rpm dump went a little better and got a 15.549 90.56 MPH reaction .628

3rd run was a 4500rpm dump and ran a 15.085 91.48 MPH reaction 0.53

4th run was a 4000rpm dump and ran a 15.200 at 90 MPH reaction 0.303


to try and stop the tramp I've rolled the diff in the mount to change the pinion angle and i'm hoping to get a couple of runs out at the test and tune this coming Friday night hoping to get it into the 14's


this was my 2nd run

well after my drag racing experience Friday night the t5 started making some funny noises when i'm doing low rpm in 5th, which once the clutch is in stops, so i'm hoping I can get the gearbox to last until I get a few other things fixed on it, so this means no more drag racing until I can sort out a t56 convertion, :D
