Car Hooked great and went 1.46 but I was experiencing some clutch issues.
My clutch pedal was sticking to the floor and wouldnt come back up.
Despite the clutch setup being shit I still managed to go 11.43 with the pedal sticking to the floor on 3 & 4th gear for a long period of time.
Once I get the clutch worked out and the hesitation issues between shifts cured I feel that the car will go 10.70's or so no problem. Just gotta work through these new car/combo bugs and get the car to perform that way that it should.
Rob,
while I'm sure you're disappointed you gave it a good effort. You'll get it sorted out and I hope you see the potential of the car. Look at gray86hatch (Tim) over on hardcore, the guy tests, tests & tests some more. You'll get there, keep plugging away at it!

Mark, Thanks alot and im definately disappointed but at the same time I understand it takes time and lots of testing to get things perfect. I will have this car going where it should be hopefully by the end of the season.
I have an engine that accelerates like a freight train. I couldnt ask for more out of my engine, this thing is a beast!
I have a suspension & rear-end that hooks like a mofo. The car just hooks and goes better than I could have asked for!
Thanks!
keep at it, you'll find more ET in it.
Exactly like mark said. It was a gamble with a new car but you had a great time!! That's what matters pal!! It was nice to atleast see it make a pass. Clean or not. Didn't get.the camera fast enough though.

You'll get there Robert, new car combos always take some time, I know :)
What are your thoughts on the hesitation. If you got that PMS, I'd still talk to that guy near Norwalk about tuning it then running it after.
What clutch set-up?
11.40s is still good especially the 60'!

car looked good Robert! Wish we could have stayed longer
Thanks man!
Yeah we had a blast despite the issues with the car! I have my 1.46 60' run on video I just have to get it off of my camera.
lol.......yeah it certainly does take awhile to iron new combo's out...
Im thinking that the hesitation lies in the factory computer but before I go there I need to get these clutch issues worked out as I cant make any good passes with my pedal stuck to the floor....
My clutch is a Kustom Hi-Rev from Wally @ Pro-Motion.
Thanks alot bro!
Yeah you guys should have swung by the Pits and said Hi.....:)
