I did it! I know it should ET better but I just wanted to at least go 120 this year and I did it. Combo in sig. 25psi and a little more than that with the converter locked. I even made it to the finals in a 26 car field and then spun off the line and couldn't run the other guy down. He was impressed that my mid 11, 120mph Buick got over 20mpg's though. Especially compared to his 502 chevelle that he drove in and was happy with a little over 10mpg's. And he was going 11.90's @112ish I think? I love beating up on big blocks. He had a beautiful car though. I'll try to post the go pro vid later.

Congrats!
60' 1.698
330 4.783
1/8 7.408 @ 94.43
1000 9.633
1/4 11.510 @ 120.68
91 octane pump gas, all that's available here, and razor alky spraying straight meth. 10.9 on the WB. Drove in and drove home after 10 runs. This is the final the I lost. My only run in the right lane, and there's a reason for that; spin city... The above time slip was not the run in the video, but my car went 120+ on all 10 runs all day.

Not with my current setup but thanks for the encouragement. This run was a 1.69 60' and there isn't much left for me in that. I need a better coupling converter without having to lock it. I'll be going with a nl ptc next time.
Glad to see you are getting the car to run like you want.

It creates a time slip based on the input you provide and you can use this to help you with tuning by comparing your time slip with the calculated time slip and see the areas you need to work on.
With 122 MPH, you should be at 10.80 which is the number Bison stated.
It's a kick when these cars are running right.
