No hating from anyone here. I just want to see Otis bust out some big mph at the track.
There's an 1/8 mile 7 miles from my house, since the DR are almost done the slicks are going on.
If the axles live I'll trailer it up to the 1/4 mile.
Haven't been on the streets in months.

8.50s at a buck sixty five.

Why not... thats what it would run if this was Bimmerforums and it was an E36. :wave:

Some of the B.S. (not an abbreviation for what you are thinking) stuff I read about over there is beyond laughable. I can only imagine what people from other countries think about U.S. builders when they see/read some of that spew.

From what i've seen other countries builders dont seem to spew bs. I think the swedes are some of the craziest, by craziest I mean fearless willing to take on crazy projects and just make ridiculous machines.

You read that wrong! Please re-read. I fixed it a little to better convey my meaning.

Nono I was in agreement with your point, I was just stating that I enjoy reading about building from other countries. I can see how they think less of us, after seeing the kind of projects they undergo.

Slicks are mounted, want to get some 1/8 mile runs to dial the tire pressure in. The car is all over the road with the slicks on.
Axles will break for sure, but I have the MCoupe trailing arms and axles waiting, prolly go in next year.

Do the fronts plow/slide around if you don't have
slicks in the front with slicks in the back?

DRs are ok though right?

Hey G&T, can I get the max flow numbers off that dyno log?
Go into optional fields and it should be there.

I'll try to figure it out. It needs input #'s of some sort.

pulsewidth, fuel pressure and you can calculate airflow based on air / fuel ratio measured.

That only works in steady state. With transient you'll have a varying time delay :)
