1st pass off the trailer Saturday @ 3:11pm with a 1377' DA, DEEP staged and restricted to ~ a 1.50" throttle bore...

60'......1.376
330'....4.059
1/8.....6.322 @ 108.07
1000...8.280
1/4.....9.94 @ 134.77

Thanks to Mike aka 70 El Camino for the video. 8-)


Now for those not understanding the DEEP staged thing and how it effects ET's, subtract .09 off all those incrementals and that's what it would have run shallow staged!

FYI, without question, unrestricted and shallow staged it would have run at least a low 9.60 today and probably a 1.27 60 foot as delivered/dyno tuned and on dino oil!

The restrictor I'm using is a 4 hole spacer in which the bores are adjustable from 1.750 down to 1.00.

Reducing from the fully open/1.750 bores produce an eliptical shaped bore(s)

As of now, 2 turns = .05 in ET and the adjustments are linear up to 13 turns.

That said, ran 9.89 @ 134.93/6.26 @ 109.40 deep staged off the trailer Saturday 8-) with a 2600+ DA and the worst barometer I've ever recorded at Island 28.98! :shock:

That's .05 quicker in 1300'+ worse air with the same restriction as the week before, when everybody in Pro was running .18-.20 slower. :o

Sill as delievered and dyno tuned by Sunset Racecraft! :D

9.40's are all but guaranteed, shallow staged, unrestricted and in good air.
