1564, My Buddies Talon (63lb/min)
Posted by 95 Mitsu, Aug-29-05 12:45 PM
This is the Talon I was telling you guys about when I was asking about the accuracy of DSMlink when estimating horsepower. We took it up to the Indy Import & Truck Bash drags to see what it would do. He sheared 1st gear on his first test run. He did manage to pull a 1.67 60', but the car still isnt running great. He popped and sputtered to a 12.5 @ 108 I think was the trap speed.

Anyhow, this is what we did when we got home, its only temporary :)

Now we won't have to go as far to get it tuned, so we'll probably be doing that soon.

Links dont work for me but either way if a guy makes 63lbs/min and only runs mid 12's there is a huge problem some where.

I'm not going to make excuses, we'll see eventually. The car isnt tuned, we know that. He ran 11.9 last year on a Big 16G without cams and a few other things. It will be tuned for 27-28 psi very soon.
