The Stangbangerz 2023 Dirty Dozen List

[NXcoupe]

First pass of year: 8.05@174 with a 1.26 60’

Walter and Bo were there…. Muncie was a pleasant surprise for a track. Had me at keyboard doing the tuning for the track, so I’m. Still learning.

Very nice pass, indeed. I will update the list.

Went to edgewater last night to get some more passes on drag radials. Not as fast for me as slicks but I am impressed with how well they are working. Looks like all my changes are paying off. Big thanks to Walt for the springs, it took 18 psi like a boss last night. Still coming in soft and slowly ramping in boost but she's back.
1.7276 60
4.3182 330
6.3182 @ 123.63 660
9.4876@ 153.79

So if i get to vote, i dont think you should pull of the list. You will be ready to go again this season. “Broken” should be when “maybe next year…” scenarios are in play. Otherwise we would all have to pull off for being broken twice a year. Haha. As a stick guy i change my transmission more often than my engine oil. Just sayin….

I appreciate it guys!! Motor is ready to pull out, going to get lift from Walter and will have it out this weekend. Going to make a few changes so we can go even faster. This year has been rough one, but going to turn it around!! I appreciate all the support!

Nice work Mike! 8 second mph, plenty of meat on the bone.

Thanks Walter! Well, after looking at logs at length, I'm pretty sure it's not locking the converter any more. I've done a lot if calculations and being at 8k in 4th and only going 154, something is very wrong. I just bought a used bolt together Circle D lock up triple disc converter from a guy. I won't have it in by BG but at least it's ready when the drivetrain comes out over the winter.
