MechEngVT,
Thanks for the reply, we still run mechanical FI but this cars has no suspension. We have to slip the clutch to a degree but this car is 2500 horsepower + so it harder to control.
The reason for pulling fuel is due to the design of a roots type blower. Its an ineffeciant blower in its design (made better now as we use a hi helix, which means it has a 120 degree rotor twist) But in essence the faster you spin these blowers the faster they become ineffiecent on the track and will then actually heat the air.
We spin ours fairly slowly, 1/8th marker was just to give an idea, this car is an animal and will pull hard probably until the 1000foot marker but we have yet to do a full pass with this combo. Initial testing though is so promising, we did a soft half pass and it still ran a 7.60 at 133mph
