Red Headed Stepchild-75 Swinger LSX Swap
Well we had a fun weekend. Started out with getting to Rockingham Friday night and getting the camper setup and hanging out with my twin brother, sister in law and niece/nephew. Saturday morning got started with some 2nd gear leave testing in the parking lot at Rockingham. Had been having some issues with wheel speed too high when shifting from 1st to 2nd. So I decided to leave in 2nd gear to try and avoid that issue.
Test in the parking lot went great and everything seemed to be working fine. Didn't change anything because everything was going well. But during round 1 of small tire it didn't go as well as it did throughout all my testing. I got the s10 off the line when they hit the flashlight, and my launch retard started like normal and then stopped .75 seconds into the pass, and somehow restarted 1.47 seconds into the pass and then ran through the progression until over halfway through the pass. Letting him come around me and get away. By the time the timing was back in the motor it was too late.
Looking it over myself and holley looking it over as well, neither of us could figure out why it stopped and started again. Only thing we could think of was a corrupt file.
Still made a 6 second pass on no prep which was a good time for just my 3rd pass on it.
Going to be heading to Northeast dragway this weekend if the weather holds to try and make sure it is just a corrupt file and not something else. All goes well, then ill feel alot better come March when I head back down to Rockingham for the next Dig or die no prep.
Here are some pictures and videos from this past weekend.
