A new best time for my charger

12.612 @ 110.32 !!!1111!!!1!!1

I had my grainger set to the “all of it” setting, which only gave me 20 psi. It was nice to beat cars that were pure track cars with big blocks and huge slicks on the back. Two of the guys that I beat came over and asked me about my car when I was in the pits.
It seems like when I spin first and get a slower 60 foot i go faster. When I really heat up the slicks I bog or get a good 60 foot but slower ET. I probably should slip the clutch to keep the rpms up and that should bring the 60 foot down and the ET. However that probably would be asking too much from my stock t2/t3 clutch.

Here are some of my timeslips:
60 1.912 1.853 1.958 1.824 1.882 1.959 2.081 2.072
et 12.612 12.648 12.709 12.746 12.789 12.860 13.164 13.066
mph 110.32 109.94 109.82 108.68 109.38 109.23 108.66 109.24

I found out that my wastegate was never fully closed. I fixed that and ran a 12.4 @ 112 yesterday. I will have to wait for my new clutch before I turn up the boost any more. I also ran a 12.8 @ 110 on street tires.
