OK, times as follows, couldn't get air but once. Showed a corrected elevation of 456 ft!!! The car sure didn't run like that. Also I just can't seem to get any traction no matter what technique I use. Goodyear D3's might be a litle old, they work well on the road but not on the track.

RT .135 60 2.224 1/4 13.343 @ 111.20 Cool Motor
RT .144 60 2.258 1/4 13.653 @ 108.05 Hot Motor
RT .172 60 2.204 1/4 13.397 @ 108.06 Hot Motor
RT .151 60 2.224 1/4 13.312 @ 111.53 Haibeck Chip
RT .118 60 2.214 1/4 13.308 @ 111.67 Haibeck Chip
RT .175 60 2.271 1/4 13.396 @ 108.86 Haibeck Chip-Hot Motor
RT .137 60 2.300 1/4 13.366 @ 109.44 Haibeck Chip ??

Best last year stock was 13.44 @ 108.17, this time 13.308 @ 111.67
So ET dropped .132, MPH went up 3.500

Looks to me like the Haibeck Chip didn't do much except keep the motor cooler and allow the MPH to come back, but, the car runs so much better with the chip. Of interest though is Marc's chip is calibrated for headers, which I don't have on the car yet, so that might have something to do with the times. Car # 458 went 12.95 @ 109.17 with an identical setup although the chip was not calibrated for headers at that time. I think this car has more potential to run better than #458 with tires that hook. MPH indicates this.

If I could get this car to hook the ET's would be much better obviously. I'd say there is at least 2.5-3 tenths at the 60' timers. Old #458 was at 1.95 60' with this same setup. Reaction times also suffer from the traction problem too.
