Great Job Kyle.
Thanks to Mark--Vettewrench & Ed from Virgina Speed

Had to wait for a little while to start dialing car in but he's got more in there.

Awesome Kyle, you have great control over that car.
Sorry I missed the last pass but I know it's only going faster.
I feel great fork Mark(Tirecraft) too.

we are using a progressive controller. It’s a 250 shot for 2nd, 3rd and 4th gear. First gear ended up at 50% to 75% of 250 shot over .5 seconds with a .2 second delay out of the gate. The next pass we had it hit harder and come in faster in 1st gear but the 26" tires didn’t like it so I aborted the pass... I'll be on my 28" Hoosiers next time...

Nice, going to 28s and bringing the spray in a little sooner will definitely get that sixty foot down. You might even chop a full tenth off that 1.42 which is roughly a 9.4x right there all else being equal. And the car appeared to be all over the place as well, a 28" tire and a little better track prep will go a long way for that beast.

I hoping for exactly what you said... The track was prepped pretty good, I think I just got out of the groove...

Kyle decided to take the scenic route.

No, really, he just wanted to see how quick he could go 1380 feet.

No no, really, he decided at the last minute to try the left hand lane.

Oh geez I kill myself........

All jokin aside, Kyle, you are a drivin MoFo!!! Hell, if it ain't got a trans brake and an air-shifter I don't wanna drive it.

Too funny Ed, but I do like the scenic route! Unfortunately, I love shifting gears.... If I dint I would put in the automatic and run some serious times, but thats just to easy, ya know...

"Seriously" if you really like shifting gears, (we all know you have a lot if $$ in that car) did you honestly ever think of putting a "Liberty" 5 speed ... All you would have to do is dump the clutch on the line... you'd be able to keep the gas to the floor for the whole run, and NO clutch is needed to shift... no dog-leg in shifting.. you could drive it like WJ, or Jeggs, or Panuzzo, ya know any of the pros.... Just a thought.

oh don't let the $5000 price tag of a Liberty slow you down.. just use the plastic

Kyle,

Have you ever scaled the car!! Looking at weight transfer and seeing if one of the front points off alittle. I still don't like the way the car jumps out of the hole.

Let me know.
