Well I finally took my Dakota out to my local track here in St. Louis
yesterday and was very happy after having a really bad bog in it last
month at Darrlington. I found that the stock fuel filter woudn't keep
up with the new Accel pump I installed. Put a $60 Moroso filter on
and no more bog! But anyway here are the results.
First pass: Stiff head wind and bad air,
RT: .666
60' 1.790

MPH 98.87
Second pass: Same conditions but moved the shift point up to 6200
rpm's from 5700.
R/T .601
60' 1.763
1/8 8.3440

Got a new programable computer coming this week and I'll install my
22 psi injectors for next time out. With any luck, 12's at over 100
mph.
