Well, been a few days now... While I did figure out one way this "could" be possible, Im still waiting to hear how this "IS" possible.....

Its possible because it happened. Two members have done it. They dont recommend it but did do it.

If it rains and the weather man said it was not possible, Did it still rain?

I was watching the weather report once and it said that there was cloudy skies (radar screen) and 60% chance of rain. I looked out the window and couldnt find one cloud.

Must have been over the duty cycle of the cloud, and it exploded, thus making it not possible to see.

Someone just explain how my car went 12.53 @104 on 17PSI from a Super 16G and 36# injectors. Whoever can do that the best wins, and I'll win too because I can't figure it out when my last dyno was 301 WHEEL horsepower at like 16PSI.

Oh and explain how I can run 12.90 @ 114 and 12.53 @ 104 too please. And don't say weather or traction did it. The conditions were mathematically equivalent and I pulled 1.8 60fts both times.

Thanks

Reduced traction allowed me to go 13.9 at 103 on 8 PSI, and no traction till 2/3 the way through 3rd allowed me to go 14.5 at 108.92 on 10 PSI.


As for your times, could it possibly have been your shifting?

All my split times were equally faster. I don't think it was shifting.

Probably bracket racing and on the brakes at the end so you didn't break out or had to let off for some other reason.

Regardless they did it, I don't need math to prove it when I saw it and trust both Jeremy & Brian's word. Recommended, no... possible yes.

The point of my post, other than to get some insight, was to show that there's been more cars than have made 300+ on small injectors.

Again, not recommended at all, but definitely possible

With a tailwind and fat bitches at the quarter mile line.... all their mass combined pulls gravity towards them, so you had a gravitational pull assisting your weak injectors.

Do it bud lol. Byron is like a 5% grade and GLD is a 2% grade. The NHRA and IHRA used to list the specs of each track and I found them somewhere a while back. Wish I could find that list again because it was pretty darn cool.

Don't know if Protomec / Todd is still reading at this point, but it's nice to see ya reply. Hope you feel lucky to work in an area where you get to do what you do. I chose to go a different direction many years ago and it's made a big difference over the course of time.

If you've ever stopped in to visit a guy in Arcanum, Ohio I might have met ya. It's been a few years now but it was neat to have a couple of "pros" among us amatuers and Bruce was usually good about getting folks from all sorts of backgrounds to come by.

People with regular day jobs may not realize some employment comes with NDA's which limit discussion, especially in a public forum.

Nukkinfuttz... calm down. Human math follows the world, not the other way around. A wise man takes time to learn when the math doesn't seem to add up to the results. In the automotive world there are many people who develop an instinctive grasp on aspects of cars or engines, but their explanations make no sense Hell, quite a few don't even have the training to describe what they know. Sometimes, if you take time and work from the idea that they may be onto something, you can learn.

I vote for substance over style always. The signal to noise ratio on JBO is low, but there are a few regulars and semi regulars who prefer substance and there seems to be the occasional passerby who wants real info albeit at a lower tech level. My monthly post count is generally low.
