But I do wonder...if a taller tire will replicate a slightly longer gearing, could you put a radial on and simply make it a 3rd gear pull and eliminate the shift? |

I can tell the difference between 10:1 and 11:1. Mark and I decided to drop the compression ratio to give a little more headroom in tuning. I notice the most difference between the two in the additional lag on tip in at lower rpm. Comparing the dyno graphs you can see it. I had to give up a little bit on the bottom to gain more on the top. No way would I go lower than 10:1. I am still not sure how I feel about it. For the boost levels I wanted to end up at I had no choice but to drop it.

I got my 1320 Draggy in today. Gonna be interesting.

Some time clarification...
5sec very fast, 4sec insanely fast, 3sec fu*king fast |

5.5 is about a stock Veyron 700whp 2010 ZR1 did around 6.5 FBO GTR on 93 did a 8’s Stock 2020 GT500 did mid 5’s to low 6’s And current street car record is a T1 customer GTR with ETS turbo kit (2400+whp) 2.55s 60-130 |
Mid 5 would be quite hard to beat for a manual, rear wheel drive car. So much easier with fast auto’s and/or AWD

If I can figure out how to reach up and bump the boost controller in 4th it will be even better.

Last time I did a 60 to 130 it was stupid fast. It hurt my dang neck. This was with the old engine.

I wish the dragy existed years ago, I use the thing all the time... I would have so many vids. Just like a 1/4 timeslip, the time doesnt really show how hard a car pulls... so even if you dont get the 60-130 you want first time out, you might find that you can drastically reduce it with a little practice. The accel G graph can be handy for dialing in boost by speed curve too, you can see how much room you have to approach your maximum grip. |

How did you do that? Filmed it with your phone and it over laid the Dragy data? Are you supposed to start from a stop? Inform the ignorant. |

and make sure you actually hit 130. Sometimes you can be tempted to have a reflex shut down as soon as you see 130 but if your speedo is off at all that could rob you from getting the recording, which would be a damn shame to lose if you had a perfect pass going. You can wait until the 60-130 pops up on the drag screen (you wont hear the lady say "130" over the engine unless maybe you turn your radio all the way up). If you notice in the video I just linked I went like 154-155 even though the 1/4 was done at like 144, result of having lost a couple good pulls to shutting down early.

The Dragy is going to be awesome. Wish I had my Welds and MT Street R's in hand now.

I am not so sure the magnet is strong enough to keep that thing on the roof. Honestly lots of guys just toss them in the cup holder. Motorcycle guys are known for just keeping it in their pocket. I have done the cup holder a few times, even left it on the passenger seat before, and not personally noticed any discrepancies or inconsistencies in the data. It doesnt seem to matter much. But when I am serious about it, I put it in my rear deck spot I mentioned, just in case it effects the numbers. Now that we are talking about it, I want to try it with a good phone mount. I have wondered if the Dragy uses the phones accelerometers for some of the data. If it does, having the phone mounted rigid might reduce some of the waviness in my acceleration G graph that could perhaps be the result of me holding the phone thus dampening the acceleration G and making it wavy as my arm moves around. |
UGG, just thought of something. Now everyone is going to know I am crazy as hell, not just think it. WTH!!!!

Man!! Listening to you guys, I'm gonna go our and setup my draggy now. Gotta wait for my laptop to charge so I can load this new re-tune from Seb for the intake manifold though.

Join the Dragy groups on facebook, and use the social media section of the Dragy app to find users to subscribe to. Seeing everyone elses posts makes you want to keep up-to-date stats on your car so you know where you stack up. Just make sure and ignore the built GT-Rs and modified superbikes, those guys are in the low to high 2 second 60-130. I follow the DragTimes channel on YouTube.. that guy sticks a Dragy in every car he gets behind the wheel of, most of them being vehicles you wont see stats on often at all... though he is often at the drag strip, so its prepped surface can really help RWD cars do things they couldnt do on the street.
