I can say I atleast gave it a shot at Qualifing on friday. I did get to meet W.F.O. and pick his brain a little as well of a few others of you. I checked the results from Fridays pull in work stock and was surprised at a finishing place of 29th out of 68 with a pull of 268.?. Atleast I know where to be next year lots of $$ down this next year. Congrats to all the qualifiers from both days. On a good not our bigger trucks did show good late saturday night and we made tv I think. Got 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 7th I think.

 

Im no expert on twin CP3s but Ive always heard anymore than 20 psi will raise rail pressure to high I would probably say that is why you are getting the code for rail pressure to high, the key is more volume not max psi.

 

john shriver is a 12v running a true 2.5inducer and he wins pretty much everyone of eep's pulls. evan davis on the other hand runs like an a5k and always pulls in the pro street class that just shows you the difference in the guys who used bushings and the guys who had true 2.5. i don't think the bushing idea is good either. but if they didn't have that rule then ohio and indiana would have the same rules and we can't have that

 

The 1st and 2nd place trucks in the 2.8 street class had an ATS Aurora 5000 turbo with a true 2.8" inducer

 

It does throw a crank code every now and then with that dang TST. its an older version with a twins program on it and I run the Smarty on 6. It does it no matter what setting I have on it, did it before I stacked the TST as well. I have a wastegate controller circuit code that will not go away for some reason, I think its down to the ECU acting up.


I think the over pressure code needs to be fixed with bigger injs.

 

johnys truck is a 24v with a vp44 and has a true 2.5 in. inducer. evan does not run an a5k or anything like that and he normally pulls in the work stock class.

maybe next year they will make the track 500 ft long so yall can get a real good run at over drive. yall ran real well but a 300ft track and a tighter sled like it should be would have made that a better class. you would think the sled guys would know whats up it wasnt a county fair. but looking at the distances yall went sure looks like it.

What gear are you pulling?

 

Tony and I were both running low range, 4th gear (1:1)

In the pulloff some of the Dodges had to downshift at the end and some of the stick trucks powered out. Wouldn't a tighter sled kill them quicker? Why wouldn't the long track and unlimited rpms help Cummins just as much as anyone else?

The Super Street and Mod trucks were all over 300' as well. Would you rather see no ground speed and everyone ending up at 200-250' or trucks flying down the track and pulling 300'-350' ?

 

i've never seen evan run in the street class here in ohio, maybe at scheids but he is always pulling pro street and usually winning at the eep pulls

 

In the pits scratching their heads

 

Bean i wonder how one of the new TST's with all the goodies added to it would do on your truck?

 

5th lo range seems to be the best, on Friday I backed up to 2nd hi to keep the clutch from slippin and it was too low so I went back to 5th and got in the finals.


I am pretty much done stackin stuff, anything else that goes on the truck will allow me to have control of the ecu so I can get what I want out of it. Stacking is ok and makes good power but there are just too many variables there to get exactly what I need.

 

I have major popping and craking when I leave my auto in 2nd gear. I know we are two different animals but mine quit hitting the rev limiter when I went to 3rd gear. My RPMS in 2nd would hit 3850 or thereabouts. In 3rd I hit some where at 3400-3500. It seems as though 5th gear on your stick should allow the truck to run out through the RPM range though. I just thought it might be to to low of a gear but my problem prob. doesnt relate to you. Good job out there.

 

Thanx, I acuualy think I might have enough hp to move up another gear but no way my clutch will make it. I am in a hard spot of hitting the rev limiter and slipping the clutch at the moment, that will all be fixed next year.
