id never been.....

my first run was a 15.2...i then decided to see if i would run quicker by shifting at different times....no avail...times got worse.

then it felt like i did the same thing the last run that i did the first run, and ran 14.7....


i dont know what the fuck was going on. theres a lot of shit my car needs really. im not going into it on here....

My shift cable was fucked up and out of adjustment...going into nuetral when you think its 3rd is a bitch.....and you know its bad when your 1/8 mile MPH is higher than your 1/4 mile MPH......i ust coasted it out after the nuetral incident, but its fixed now and we'll prolly be headin up to VMP next weekend.

what does the rest of ur timeslip looks like 99slowlst??

3 weeks ago at VMP i could only make a 14.6@98mph with a 2.41 60ft time. i still spun most of 1st with me launching at 2500rpm. my best 60ft time that night was a 2.34, damn kumhos........

slicks or radials should help u out alot......


well i hope my bfgs drag radials comes soon, cuz i might be at vmp next weekend. if not, definetly the 26th. that will give me time to get the new clutch installed and broken in.

yeah, i had a really shitty night at the track, got there late and only got 3 runs in
1st run: accidentally turned boost down to 10psi instead of up to 20psi. ran 14.7, not bad for lower than stock boost

2nd run: turned boost up entirely too much, spiked 28psi at 4k in 2nd gear, car leaned out entirely too much and i thought it blew up, but it didnt rolled through the traps at 30mph

3rd run: hit 22psi at 3500k in second gear, hit fuel cut, then shifted to 3rd going about 35mph, floored it and ran a 15.2

my car is slow

can someone please open an AWD dyno shop around here?

Blew tranny up on the way home. Cracked the 3rd and 4th gear shift fork and it tore a few other things up.

But so everyone can laugh at my times here they are:
1st run
Thought I had a good run but was garbage.
1.9538 60ft
8.4564 1/8th
84.06 mph
13.1502 1/4th
104.31 mph

2nd run
It bogged a little off the line. Then I missed second, and had turned the boost up but it was to much and detonated. Put the car in 4th early and stayed in it through the traps.
1.8979 60ft
8.8890 1/8th
80.68 mph
14.1840 1/4th
87.89 mph

3rd run
I managed to miss 2nd again, it didn't wanna get in there.
1.7928 60ft
8.7215 1/8th
83.39 mph
13.3995 1/4th
105.01 mph

I think the car is to rich and needs better air flow. Cams and throttle body should open it up alot. AHAHA Injectors made me slower. : (
