The TC unit is not really suited for drag racing with a 7 AT. The launch control works with a 6 MT. ( spoke ro race logic about this ). Best time was a 12.81 The car ran straight as an arrow. There was no taction on the line as the launching pad was terrible half rubber and half bare ashault. Best 60 ft times were 2.059. The DA was 1890, NOt good for the car making power. Its hard to belive that you can spin 305 35 18 drag radials !!!. This has never happened before. I also have line lock on the car and the burn outs were great so heating up the tires was no problems. The times went from 12.91 to 12.81. Please not the brake fuse was also pulled.
When i disconected and removed the TC it ran a 12.67 with a 1.95, 60 ft time.
when i ran the 12.42 the DA was 10. If you ajust the times for a DA of 1890 the 12.67 is excellant. with a better 60 ft time it would have gone 12.53. Not bad for an all motor car. I race a fully modified Mach ! mustang who had slick's and slinney's. He got me off the line but i ran him down. He was running 12.69 on his best pass.
With the TC unit on the car ran richer on A/F.
If the track was in better condition it would have run a low 12.5's or 12.49 with a 1.85 60 ft time with the TC on.
I had the slip set for 10%.
Im very happy with the times as not many cars were quicker than mine and everybody had bad 60 ft time's
With the TC on you can drive it with 1 hand on the wheel and it will go straght as an arrow.
Now this was the first time at the track and next time i will be going to my regualar track were i cut 1.85 's all day. I will post on it then.
the 12. 67 pass i had to drive the car a lot harder than the 12.81 pass with the TC on.
Driving on the roads you can not beat it has the car had perfect traction and drives like a dream.
All you have to do is go around a nice sharp bend in the road and floor it. You will leave the guy beside in your dust. It cuts the engine power very nicely and give you perfect grip. once the tire's stop slipping it aplply's full power. You can not do this with out the unit on.
If i was bracket racing nothing and i mean nothing would have beat me as could run 12.81 to 12.82 all day with the unit on . with 2.059 60 ft times.
Now when i get the 530 rwhp GTM SC this unit will work even better on the car.
