6055, First passes....
Posted by 95eclipse420A, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
So I went to the track last Friday (6-26-09) for some shakedown runs since i just got the car back on the road. Mind you, this is my FIRST TIME running my turbo 2g. I ended up with only 3 practice runs; I blew a 90* ic coupler half way through 2nd gear and lost boost on my third run; and then the races got rained out. So here are my times. Track is 1/8 mile.
1st run:
.508 reaction
2.823 60 ft
10.572 @ 73.56 mph

2nd run:
.470 reaction
2.770 60 ft
10.483 @ 72.34 mph

3rd run:
.310 reaction
2.581 60 ft
10.702 @ 57.51 mph

I am running 205/55/16's, obx lsd, and 7psi on star kit. I do believe on my third run though that i was starting to get a feel for the car. I am open to all comments, as I know i will receive them anyway. Any pointers are welcome too.

Pratice your launch. Way too high. What are you doing for launch?

I am practicing. As i said b4, These were my FIRST passes with this car, My second time at the track ever. As far as launching, I don't really know what i should be doing, i just know what i've tried. The last run i launched at around 4k and tried to feather the throttle from there. It felt a bit faster that time, but then my hose blew. I will be headed back to the track next friday, so give me some suggestions...please.
