    Vortech Track Results

    Well, I got to the track today and got 5 passes in before it got too crowded. The temp was in the low 60s, pretty good for Florida. My best pass was 12.1 @ 114.5. The car hooked very well as I had 3/4 of a tank of gas and about 150lbs in the trunk. My 60' was 1.9 and I was running regular street tires.

    Nice!, Sounds very potent! I don't understand all the extra weight and gas on board, I hate to tell ya that kept you out of the eleven's. But the season is very young!

    I actually thought traction would be a problem so the weight would help me, but I didn't spin at all so I think you are right and I could have eliminated some weight and gotten a better time. The day was really starting to warm up and the lines were getting long so maybe next time.

    You'll get it next time, I had good results with 20psi in the backs, light car, heat the dry tires a little. I know you have to feather the gas pedal with the blower. Good luck!

    Nice ET, bud. As Slideway said, the 11's are yours with a 'track diet'.

    Thanks man. My tune is very conservative right now. It actually dipped below 10:1 on the pass. I think there is some mph left in the tune.

    Very nice for a simple bolt on. Guys keep in mind the boost levels alone will not kill a shortblock. Its the potential for detonation and most of that potential can be mitigated with a great tune. With that said, I will tell you that 10psi and 10+ compression is RIGHT ON THE EDGE of what you can get away with on 93 Octane in our cars. And that is with a conservative timing curve. Hope you are logging the hell out that car to keep an eye on PT/WOT knock retard. I would only see 1-2deg KR at 9-10 psi, however once I downsized the pulley a bit and kicked it up to 12psi I saw a rise in the KR (4-5deg) that required race gas at the track to keep things in check.

    Not that I am recommending 10psi on with the relatively thin ringlands we have in our cars (read: quite a gamble here) but I would have no problem seeing our motors live a long life if it has a impeccable tune and a properly set up water/meth inj and perhaps most importantly, someone who can recognize when they are having detonation issues.

    Good luck and hope to see you in the 11's man.
