DMX, 2nd run on asphalt goes 9.92 driving thru the clutch badly. We tried to detune it, because Angel is not licensed and only legal to run 10.00. Well, it went 9.84 driving thru the clutch again. Need to do some clutch tuning & a final gear change.

I'm not a clutch tuner and was wondering if you could explain the term "driving through the clutch?"

Slipping badly, needs more base pressure/more spring. The 60' time really sucked for the ET it was running, but was really making up for it between 60' & 330'. It was running deep into the 3.80s in 330'. We have been 3.60 in 300' on sand. The asphalt set-up is currently running a 2.0 final gear ratio & probably needs a 1.80 - 1.90 final ratio. It gets pretty tricky to make that ratio & the clutch right for 1/4 mile.

Angel has done a great job with the DMX. He has totally changed the timing, dome set-up, some huge lectrons & changed back cone on the pipes. Plus, a bunch of smaller changes. We plan on changing out the beefy/heavy rods that K&T wanted in the motor. Actually, that whole K&T motor set-up has been redone by Angel.
