5-9-08 Midnight Madness @ Gateway Raceway St. Louis

[HxC_Nismo]

well i went to the track with my new tune 368rwhp , gizzmo launch interface, mickey thompson drag radials and z32 n/a diff. and my main concern was snapping another axle since thats what happend last year. also it was kind of hard to hook off the starting line cause it rained earlier that day and all the cars that were going in the burnout box with street tires, so i spun a bit off the line so i know on a better day i can cut a 1.7 60'. the car had no problems but my best time that night was

r/t: .49760': 1.8831/8: 7.944mph: 90.471/4: 12.260mph: 113.64

and to remind the ones that dont know what i ran on my old 307 rwhp tune last year i ran a 12.68 @ 110mph with a 1.8xx 60' and with a j30 diffi have vids but i will post the links when i get em up.

what kind of dyno did you pull on? You have almost like 100 more hp than I did with only a 4mph trap difference lol....

Nice run however.

[HxC_Nismo]

i tuned on a dyno dynamics and my rwhp is just an estimate on a dynojet cause the dyno dynamics i tuned on is usually 30hp lower then a dynojet

It was cold Friday night. I'm surprised you could hook at all.

It was cold Friday night. I'm surprised you could hook at all.

not to mention the rain that occured that day so it had alot of dew(moisture) in the air cause everytime i was in the staging lanes there was dew on the car and foggy windows.

you missed out it was actually not that packed so i got like 6 runs in and i could of done 7 but i was just trying to just my personal best time. there was also a 500rwhp fd rx7 and i ran him and we ran neck to neck and then he pulled on me by the 1/8 mark cause he trapped at around 130mph

Surly if you hook well with the launch control you can be in the 1.5 60' range. I was cutting 1.6-1.7's without the launch control last year. This year of course I broke first trip out to the track. How much boost are you spooling with your gizzmo? @ 3600RPM's Im spooling 5 pounds. At 4500 im spooling almost 8lbs.

[cdorhout]

Hans, how do you like the Gizzmo?

[WhatsADSM]

Not a bad time at all for 15psi on the stock twins

[HxC_Nismo]

i love the gizzmo, but im only building 4.5 psi of boost @ 5500rpm but i bet when i upgrade to my garrett gt4088r turbo i might be able to build 8psi of boost off the line but until then im going to try to get some slicks and try again cause i know i can do better 60' then 1.8.
