New Best Time for ZMBYKLR

Put ZMBYKLR on a diet after I changed out my busted rocker arms. Previous best was 11.49 @ 117. That was on 37" Super Swampers with front and rear Iron Bull bumpers and a spare 37 on a TireGate.

I took the bumpers off and put on a stock front bumper. Got rid of the spare and TireGate. Also took off the light bar, step bars, and a couple other miscellaneous things. Then I took off the 37's and replaced them with some 285/60R18 Toyo Proxes ST II's. All in all it was about a 500-600lb drop in weight, not to mention the rotating weight of the 37's.

Went out to State Capitol Raceway yesterday for the test 'n tune. Had a crappy 60' due to spinning and hopping off the line and having to let out and get back in, but still managed an 11.18 @ 123.9. With a good launch I'm pretty certain it would eek into the 10's.

Unfortunately that was the only pass I got to make as one of my nitrous solenoids got stuck open. Easy enough fix though and I live to race another day.

I still need to remove the lift also; waiting on the stock coil springs to get here. I figure the drag that lessens will be worth a tenth or so too plus some weight.

Here's the timeslip and here's a vid of the stuck solenoid. Scared the crap outta me; I'd never seen that before, lol.

So you going to bring that thing to Rudy's?

If the finances allow for it.

Do you have a build thread? Or what is fuel and air setup?

I've seen that many times with the bottle psi too high, lets the solenoid open but not close because of the PSI. I now test the N2O button a few times (engine off) when at an event with a new bottle.

Nice MPH BTW!

Nice pass, now put that mother in the 10's

I suppose I need to invest in a bottle gauge.

Thanks! I should add that was also with a pretty much full tank of fuel so there's some weight to be had there also.
