6234, First time at the drag strip...
Posted by teklein, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
And I actually love it.

1/8 mile track.

First run was a 11.55, second was a 11.41, third was a 11.11.

Car definitely has more in it as I was still messing up launching and was shifting pretty easy.

Civic was 10.6 or so, and other than the launch I was dead even with him as far as length.

Don't forget, the car "reset" pulling up to the staging lane and all the fuel trims went out the window. So the car was running really rich as compared to normal. :P

That too, lol.

Also, forgot to mention that Zac (Slo2g) ran a 11.3 first time on the strip too!

Yeah, I actually enjoyed it more than autocross!

The car runs way richer than normal when the ECU is first reset. If it didnt do that, I think that would have helped too.

I was launching at 5500rpm (Quaife). I let it slip for a millisecond then dumped it, car just takes off!

Next step is no lift shifting...
