What you are looking for is 6,000 rpm just as you cross the line in fourth gear; the way to achieve that is lower gears; you might have to experiment till you find the perfect set up
I have a small block 350 with a big cam and a turbo transmission in my c10 Chevy Scottsdale 10 square body put a turbo transmission and it's going to kick azz at racing
I feel your pain. The first time I raced, I got beat in the first round too. Hope you find some more speed and consistency! Go get 'em!
I will also add Vegas is around 2200 feet altitude, this is a 11 sec truck in sea level air.
Congrats on building a great engine!
That looks like a blast. Awesome truck and track.
Thank you!
Congratulations guy happy for you both!! Need to get a staging limiter to help dial it in that launch
Yeah, just need to find that consistency

Did you have to modify your spring mounts to work with the caltracs? Curious because Calvert says I may have to modify my hanger to work .
Yes, the spring mounts had to modified. We had to remove metal above the spring to make room for the caltracs plates
