Drag Strip Results

[HolyShiznit]

Well first time since I rebuilt the bottom end (STOCK) and ran my new set-up. I have 235/60/15 BFG Drag Radials and learning all the new stuff while trying to learn them was hard. Best backed up runs were 12.7 @ 110 with 2.095 60'. I got a 1.91 60' but the clutch slipped in 2nd and 3rd so I bounced off rev limit, had to let off, then mash the throttle again both times, but ended up with 12.9 @ 108, the run easily could have been my 12.5-12.6. I only got 5 runs in and they were separated by an hour and a half wait, so I couldn't get consistent results with the radials, I will get better though, didn't help that it went from a nice 62 degrees to a nasty 75ish within 2 hours.

This was at only 13.4 pounds of boost thanks to a crappy intercooler that can't flow a full bar.

The car has a LOT more in it and the 60's can EASILY improve with practice. BTW: This was full interior, pump gas.

i have the exact same drag radils. i was hoping they would be able to hold some power for a while. great times. isnt great to be in the 12's

[klattr1]

congrats man.

[HolyShiznit]

Thanks guys, I will get better. It's all about learning, regardless of the times I proposed to my girl that day too so I win regardless.

Stay in the 12's, its more fun. Once you bust into the 11's or get a trap speed fast enough....you'll get booted from the track till you get a cage and various other safety measures installed.

Try to hammer out a 12.1.

Nice. Stock bottom end? Very impressive. Keep up the good work.

you will not need a roll bar till 11.49

So when are you going to have a fast run?

heheheh j/k

looking good... Now that my boost is stable I can't wait to take it out.

[HolyShiznit]

Fast run will happen soon enough.

I can't wait to hear the results of your car man.

[Red-KAT]

Heh... I still have lame open diff...

And I think my Ignition Coil is going out...

So my MSD 6AL and Coil 2 should be here soon...

I got my new plug wires today... (old ones have a gash... :P)

And I think my crank sensor went bad... HAH. Always something! But one day I WILL hit the track.

BTW what track you hit? (I bet I will suck... I always go easy on the start so I dont roast my 1 wheel for 3 gears)

[WDRacing]

Think of it this way, you only have to buy one slick at a time...lol.

When I get mine finished up the 3 of us will have to go at the same time. Since were all pretty local.

I'm looking at joining a club that hits PIR all the time... I would hit a track every weekend if I could find one that would let me.

[HolyShiznit]

Ugh PIR SUCKS compared to Woodburn for traction. Times are also off, this isn't heresay this is simple fact. I won't race on a track for times unless it's Woodburn.

[Red-KAT]

Are you talking about the track? or the dragstrip?

I'm not much for the 1/4 mile thing... I like grip driving a lot more... I'm not into drifting. I do however respect the skill involved in it.

[veilside180sx]

drags is what I referring to, but I'm into doing track days, etc when I'm done too. Woodburn would be fine with me as well. It's not all that far.

[Red-KAT]

Sweet deal... we will have to keep in touch and plan something.

PIR is really against any imports the last couple years. Seems like they got rid of a lot of the test and tunes. The announcer they had with the giant mullet knew all the chevy/ford guys by name, but couldn't tell my car was a nissan. lol
