ran at the track today

[quiksilvia]

stock s14 with a 12" sub in the back and passenger ran a 16.1 at 87 i think it was, not too bad, definitly not the 14.1's with the redtop i miss everyday

[Veriest1]

That isn't to bad for stock with the extra wieght. They normaly pull a 15.8 or so right?

[drifter_for_life06]

good job bro

wait wtf?! they let you run with a passenger?

i dont think any track around here ive been to allows that

[wperdigon]

did you try to run without the passenger? i'm sure you would have picked up a few tength's -isn't it something like for evey 100lbs you loose, you gain a tenth?

[drftsil8ty]

thats what i've heard.

The track here lets you run with "one crew member" in addition to driver. I assume it's meant for troubleshooting or something. I ran a 10.6 something the at other day................... Did I mention its a 1/8 track? I'm pretty much stock and had a FULL tank of gas (it was a spur of the moment thing) and was in mid 60s mph at the end. The sad thing is, I was one of the fastest street cars there, it was a slow night. There was a turbo civic that ran slightly faster than me, an S14 that kicked my @$$, and a 2nd turboed S14 that I only saw run once (against the other 240) but didn't see his time. My friend was there in his Escort ZX2, and I think he was REAL dissapointed. His dad beat him in a stock SUV!!

ive heard and pretty much witnessed proof that every hundred pounds you shed, shed's a tenth

[quiksilvia]

well shes barely over 100 pounds, so i dont think it held me back too much, but it was really hot yesterday, and as long as u run slower than a 14 flat, u can have a passenger. the last run i did i had a great reaction, but a ****ty start, and she wasnt in the car, i think that run with a good start coulda been sub 16 fo sho.

yeh nice run, its supposed to be ~15.7 or so with a good driver and no added weight, so you could loose the sub and the woman and make it into the high 15's.

here at the local 8th mile they let me be passanger on my brother's mustang when it was running 8.3 secs(8th mile), i also ran a 10.5 on my stock 93 240sx.
