Why do you think you pulled off an 11.9? At first I thought it was your 1.7 60’ but then saw your 1.699

If you leave it on map1, that's a solid 45-50 extra HP for less than $500

Having the Bluetooth enabled me to log my track runs and dial-back boost in areas where it was actually hurting my runs. This map is basically a slightly modified map2

Basically, except I can pull this out in 5 minutes before going in for service or when selling/returning the car..... The down side to this, it doesn't remove the top speed governor, which I don't care for. When the last time you needed to go over 130mph?

Dragy was not charged and it uses Micro-USB charger, my current phone/car charger is the new C-type. The track is over an hour away from my house, it wasn't worth it form me to run back just for dragy. Instead, I focused on data logs, which I emailed to Terry hoping they will use for further development.

Just a side note for anyone reading/comparing or making a purchase decision based on time slips,

Trap speeds what I normally look for (1/4 -1/8th speeds). The car with higher trap speeds should always be faster from a street roll. ~1-2mph traps shouldn't make a huge difference, but 3-5+mph will. Also on the streets, if you tree someone of the light by a car or two, they need 50-100hp just to catch up. The rest (60', 330, E.T. etc..) is just a matter of practice. R/T (reaction time) does not really count unless you're bracket racing, the timer doesn't start until you move and break the beam.

Don't expect to head to the track and lay down 11's or even low 12's immediately. I've done this a few times and while it's a "straight line racing", every little thing on the track can make a big difference.

Earliest pic I can find of me practicing, I believe this was from 1999 at Englishtown..... Sad to see it closed

Good stuff 18bora. I see that Terry posted an Instagram post of you running 11’s. So I hope he rethinks the whole idea of Jb4 for us.

Thats impressive. I run 11.78 at 117 with Euro-charged on 93 octane. I am curious to know what Octane your running. I assume you must be running race or E85 mix

Thanks, yes jb1 only and I believe it's the first C43 in the 11's with an official track slip!
