BlackHorseTurbo does 192.3 at the Texas Mile today
 

I don't want to steal Joes thunder in his thread. I saw his car. Wow! Today was amazing at the mile. The weather was perfect with the added benefit of a tail wind.

I drove down this morning from the house and arrived with a little too much 93 octane in the tank. I decided to make my first run on low boost. (turned out to be 1.16 bar). To my surprise I ran a 189.3. So I threw in about 4 gallons of ms109. I switched to the hi boost file and ran again. This time hitting 192.3 I didn't adjust the boost level from when it was cooler a couple weeks ago. My high boost is around 1.45 but this second run only recorded a high of 1.35. I know that if had adjusted correctly at 1.45, I would have easliy hit 195+.

Sub-plot. After the road race at TX2K9, I have been noticing a little slipping and noises in the slower speeds. So, today I was very conservative in the
lower gears. I only applied full throttle until 4th gear.

I am amazed at how much faster I went this year than last (170.4) with new turbos and tune.

Speed channel was there and filmed both runs. I hope I make it on the next Supercars Exposed.

Extra stat gathered from the pbox. 11.7, 2.6 60', 131mph in the 1/4.

Nice job,

Your car ran VERY well, a big congrats!

I mentioned in the other post, but I will say it again here

Excellent job! 18gs and Tip... very well done

Thanks Marty. I thought of you immediately when they gave me that 192 mph slip.

Great run! Looks like all the Porsches were on top of their game this weekend!

Justin, you just reminded me, I didn't see any other Htown turbos there today.

Luis, you have a great point. The P cars were kicking a$$ today for sure.

congrats.....Great run

Congrats Todd! Awesome numbers! Hope the car is OK.

great runs!

did you guys happen to get video footage?

Great numbers buddy. That's some smooth jazz. Now if your golf game wasn't in the sh!tter you'd be having a good year so far. :p

Congrats Todd!!!

Great run! What's the top speed gear limited to on the tip?

BlackHorseTurbo,
Hats off to you!

No speed limiter after a flash/tune. Whatever MPH at Redline is?
