MattKatz Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Went to Edgewater Sports Park in Cincinnati friday evening for some good 'ol Test and Tune....But I went with a New Weapon Thanks to Jeremy (JCattSS on my TBSS forum). He Loaned me his brand New Set of True Forged Drag wheels and Radials.....And The Results were astonishing. Not only did I take over the new top spot on our AWD List....But I have surpassed quite a few guys on the RWD list as well. As you will see, I have now accomplished what many of the AWD guys have been trying to do for some time now and I have a lot of people to thank along the way. Special thanks to Matt (LT1Z on TBSS forum) for walking me through a few tune changes on the phone at the track last night as well. Long and Short....This Truck moves the EFF out now. She is a nasty little bitch. I am still having a 2-3 shift problem, but even with the messy shifting the truck went 10's. I am Ecstatic to say the least. The Previous Record for an AWD was a 11.26, and last week at KK I went 11.27 ....Not once, but twice....SO I was bound and determined to break that record, and I did so by a lot. I am happy with the results and think this is the end of the line for me on this vehicle. Not saying Im going to sell, but at this stage to go faster will cost far more than its worth to me. Video of the Run is posted under all of the pictures. Here is a Pic of the truck at the track last night with the Radial on, Pic back at home clearly showing my number, and all four of my slips last night along with my Tech Card. The First two runs I was just testing out launching on the radials and getting a feel for how 2-3 was going to shift....and it didnt. Thats where Matt came in a we worked on a few things. I knew once I made a pass under 11.49 they were gonna boot me, and I was trying to work out the 2-3 shift issue, but on run three it was late, so we hit it...And It went 10's and I couldnt believe it. The guy at the Tech booth was all grins when I got there....He had gotten word from my buddies I was trying to go for the record, and after that pass he told me I would have to slow it down....But Told me he'd give me one more Full pass to back it up. Kick ass Guys for doing that....They could have easily sent me packing to Pits. When I made the next pass after a breif 20 minute cool down, I hit the booth only to find out I went even faster at 10.83@125. Not only did I take over the top AWD spot...I did so by nearly a half second over the next guy behind me and I backed it up to boot. SO you guys look at the slips...They speak for themselves. Truck was drove 70 miles there and Home Carrying everything to make the Wheel Swap. Here is the short mod list for those that will want to know.

MattKatz Posted October 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Evil did help me Thursday night with some Clearance Grinding duties to fit the New Forged Wheels and Drag Radials....and likely told the tech guys to let me Run again since I was trying to break a record.

brent1976 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I think I remember this making a little over 300hp right after you got it. It sure has come a long way. Are you going to the d42 track day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thorne Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Were going to figure out the 2-3 issue. I've got a couple ideas but ultimately we may just be to powerful for the trans. I expect with the current setup we can still tweak a little more out of her. Gimme a call I got time this weekend to play with the 2-3. and mail me the logs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koolrayz Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 2-3 shift flairing is the death sentence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattKatz Posted October 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Egh...it might be, but we might want to put some torque management back in for the 2-3. I'll try anything at this point, but if it's mechanical, it is what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
