4822, Took the turbo to the track
Posted by MetalJim, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
I got a buddy who runs one of those TT 3rd gen rx7s who has been egging me to go to the track lately. I really wanted to hold off till I got to the dyno so I cut turn up the boost a bit, but I went anyway.

14b/1g SMIC @ 8-10psi(I've got boost controller issues).

60' - 2.357
1/8 - 9.656 @ 76.71 MPH
1/4 - 14.76 @ 94.72 MPH

I got that one run in and then they closed the track for rain. I didn't really get a good launch and it was hot as balls so it kind of just sucked.

I did beat the rex though on a holeshot. I nailed the light .018 RT for me and Ken was absolutely sleeping at the tree with a .792 RT. He ended up running a 14.683 but I still whooped him by nearly .7 seconds at the end of the track.

I know my car can run faster than this. It was very hot and very humid when we ran and both of our cars were hot off the street when we ran(from a 1 hour drive, to tech, then pretty much straight onto the track). Ken usually runs around 14.1 when we go so I'm pretty sure I'll see better times the next time I go. Hopefully I'll be able to turn up the boost a bit more before I go again.


95 Eclipse RS : 5 speed
15.7 @ 87.9mph
