Default Gear and tune comparison

Sat I went to US131 at Martin Mi to do some comparitive runs on gears and tunes w/ my `11 V6 PP with 18 in. wheels and stock tires.

All launches were from idle with no runup against the converter and trans in drive. TC off and 1/2 tank 93 octane fuel. Car weighed 3847 on the scale with me aboard. Da`s were in the mid 6`s to low 7`s and had little effect so I won`t get into that. Circled water box and spun tires just to get them clean but only a second or so. I had no wheelspin at on any launch. I ran this stock under similiar da`s last fall.

Last fall with no tune and 2.73`s it ran 14.8441 @ 94.63 on a 2.3061 60.

Sat w/ tune to correct speedo only w/3.55`s. 14.4839 @ 95.66 on a 2.2253 60.
.3602 sec quicker and 1.03 MPH faster trap.

Sat w/ 87P bama tune. 14.1045 @ 98.4 on a 2.2554 60.
.3794 sec quicker and 2.74 mph faster trap.

Sat w/93 race Bama tune. 13.9392 @ 99.7 on a 2.2207 60.
.1653 quicker and 1.3 MPH faster trap. I had another run on this tune that was almost exactly the same.

Draw what info you want from this, I only post it as a source of info for others that actually comes from the track. Obviously I would probably need 10 or so runs on each to validate the data but this is all I`ve got today.

I will post the slips if you all think it`s worth it.

Track is at 658 ft altitude so not too bad for good air.
