SPIKO Gold Donating Members 1,924 Member For: 19y 22d Gender: Male Posted 28/01/06 09:46 PM Share Posted 28/01/06 09:46 PM Well guys, we ran it very soft tonight and broke nothing however traction just wasn't there at all, other than the first run I got off it each time as it got loose at half track, and very loose off the line, also almost crossed the centre line twice. However I'm very happy with the night as this was a low as I could tune it down to. Thanks to greg and rob for the help tonight guys and great to meet a few of the members here also.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>SteveVery good effort mate. Traction was alway's going to an issue, but the car is performing well on low boost very consistant! Not too far away from the long standing record that is proving to be very ilusive.Keep at it gradually turn it up. Take some weight off the car next time.Tell me you got this on video we would all like to see the beast. Just go to pufile.com and upload the file and then cut and paste the link when your done.RegardsSpiro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence the reason trucks have 15 odd gears...But like I said its a different kettle of fish we are talking about... Whats your thoughts please?jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The glide is definitely the best and only option.RegardsSpiro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have run 10's on 6 inch slicks with only a 3rd of that power though....Maybe time for little tubs and a good 4 link set up...jeffjeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
