[BadAssPerformance]

Yeah, still need to figure our the 60' like Slowe said... that and the suspension.. still spinning a lot in 2nd

[turbovanman²]

Screw baby steps, go big or go home,

[Reaper1]

You mean go big and go home broke?

[turbovanman²]

You mean go big and go home broke?

Sure, that too,

Soon enough he'll catch up with this guy and his 8-sec runs:




Just gotta get that suspension/tires working! The Talon is cheating with the extra 2 drive wheels.

There is a way to level that playing field.

JT,
What compound are the slicks? Fantastic shakedown passes!

...and it's been a tad lightened... and is the shop car, or is that spelled $hop car? Don;t get me wrong, Devin's Talon is BadAss, but a full race car is a tough comparison

Thanks! I thought that size only came in HB-11? Either way, thats what John (Mr. M&H) recommends for FWD to reduce shake

HAHA! Yeah, a tad lightened indeed!

Great stuff JT. Nice to see the swap to 16V is shining through now! Care to share what boost you're at these days?

It's a street car.

It's a street car.

Yeah, so is Lee's silver GTS

Thanks, yeah, hoping to figure out traction this year so I can finish tuning it, LOL! The highest boost I saw on Friday's runs was 28psi and that was only at the top of 3rd and 4th. Running the TiAL and a Grainger, not the best control but thats the least of my worries rigth now, LOL

It's a street car.

The Talon? No headlights sounds dangerous on the street!

Yeah, so is Lee's silver GTS

I that Viper!

[Ondonti]

What is your feeling about the engagement on launch? How well can you control the violence of that moment?

[BadFastGTC]

JT,
Marvin told me years ago the HB11 needed one burnout where the tire just begins to haze & smoke, then just dry hop them to clean them off following the initial burnout. He went on to say you can do a big burnout each pass and all it will do is increase tire sales for him. Cliff Sebring told me the same thing. I proved to myself also. Just a little food for thought.

[BadAssPerformance]

Interesting... did he say what temp worked?

With the 26's on the first run they spun a little then hooked in 2nd, almost like they needed more heat and got that in 1 and first part of 2?

I didnt burn them too much, more to get temp into them and bring the tire pressure back up. The 24.5's i would run them at 11psi hot, so before the first run I would put them to 9.5 or 10 and then after the run adjust, and after the 2nd or 3rd run they would stabilize at 11psi.

[turboshad]

How long between runs?

[BadAssPerformance]

6:05pm
7:06pm
9:07pm
10:25pm

about an hour? Air temp went down a bit too
