Quarter-Mile Times
Here are the quarter-mile times my truck has posted. All times have been run at the Moroso Motorspeedway (link is on the front page), which is in north-western Palm Beach County, Florida and sits at about 10-15ft. above sea level. Since I live in Miami (about 100 miles away and $10 in tolls), trips to the track are infrequent.

Track Visit # 1- First time to the track. Truck was equipped with a Chrysler 8.25 rear-end, and 3.21 open gears. The only modifications done to the truck at the time was the cold-air intake, the Flowmaster Muffler and some Mopar Performance 7.5mm wires. The truck was running on Michelin LTX M/S 235/75R15 tires. |

Track Visit # 3- Truck had been modified with a Superchips programmer. Track conditions were about 65deg., but I kept having problems putting the truck in second gear (I could get the truck out of first gear, but not into second). I think the problem has to do with the transmission fluid being too thick (75W90). |
