I see this competition coming to fruition. Won't be long now.

The car top ends like a mf. 127.5mph was the best trap of the day with 35% wgdc so plenty of room to turn it up more.

The car doesn't like when you try to shove over 29lbs lol (max 3 bar)

nice....

127 mphwow!

127 mphwow!

I know crazy right?

Backend is making some power!

 

[802SHO]

Yeah that car has the fastest top end so far!
Should show them the data @Jordan_R

 

[Jordan_R]

Made a video of the day. Got some cool progression in figuring out the car

 

[76FoMoCo]

Brad is loving you two yahoo!
Has To have your CC on file too!

 

[FREAK_SHO]

nice flat launches too. Looks good coming out of the hole in the videos!

 

[Zpak]

Nice man. Good to see you back on the track.

 

[Jordan_R]

Swapped to full pump E. Usually tests around E70 ish. But thought process is lean it out a little bit, give it more timing and less boost. At least for the moment. We were running it very rich on e30 with almost no timing so should be a good time all around. The DW300C will need help though but I was methanol dependant before so nothing really changed.

 

[kryptto]

sorry to hijack your thread Jordan, but I am excited to find out a Sunoco about 20 mins away has e30 and e10 at the pump... might help me avoid mixing. gotta check it out and test it. however your project is exciting to watch. btw u got me looking at golf R....

 

[76FoMoCo]

G R can go fast easy.
Jordan I hope you're girl has a good recovery, has her teeth and no meth sores. E IS A GOOD Segway off the meth. Hopefully your therapy with Brad can get her clean.

JMS Boost a pump ordered. Going to be some help the lpfp needs.

 

[Jordan_R]

Boost a pump "installed." It really made me take a step back and realize I need to take a few days and clean up the interior. So many sharp bits and unneeded wires now lol. Also realized my methanol pumps are being powered by some cheap wire. Might have to upgrade that too while I am at it.

 

[FrankK]

Cheap wire carries the current just as well as expensive wire.

The cheap wire is the aluminum that is copper coated. Not really worried about it getting the job done because it has so far, just how it handles the heat.

 

[FrankK]

Aluminum wire used to be used in homes but not anymore. The wire heats and softens at the connection points and can start to arc.

I'd replace it with a good all copper wire.

Copper clad wire now days is stable and not what the 70s wires were. It's all about the insulation rating. Look for 90c wire and you will be fine

 

[kryptto]

plus we are talking about different volt and amperage loads. however @Jordan_R clean up those bits... lol
