2443, Woohoo! I suck! (track day)
Posted by DarkOne, Mar-09-03 12:46 AM
run 1:

rt: .538
60': 2.59
330: 6.610
1/8th: 9.638@83.6mph
1000': 12.188
1/4: 14.34@104.37mph

First time in six months or so. Badly out of practice.

Run 2:

rt: .757
60': 2.457
330: 6.325
1/8th: 9.301@84.68
1000': 11.826
1/4: 13.953@105.48

Consensus: mid 13 second car, 15 second driver. Man, winter always messes me up.

At least you could go to the damn track......my track won't be open up here for another couple months! Get back there soon and get some low-mid 13sec timeslips Dino, I know your car can do it with ease :)

heheh...good try Dino!

What psi and what's your launch technique? (4000 rpm drops still? :P )

Strauss, you should drive down to FL, our track only closed for 1 month or so back around Dec - Jan.

2449, Woohoo! I suck MORE!

Yeah, whatever. :P I busted a move to a 17.9 @ 79. Now that was slick. The car wasn't running right that whole day and it caught up with me right when I launched. Car jolted, afc shut off, car sputter, hesitated, then limped through the traps very slowly. Now that's a good way to turn a low 15sec car into almost an 18 sec car. Hell that's the worst slip that I've ever had (even when it was automatic).

Yeah that .538 reaction time is pretty horrible. Might want to work on shaving off a few hundreths of a second there...

WOOOO Look at those 60 ft. times! How are you launching that beast Dino? I know what happens when I try and spray in first gear, so I figure the same thing must happen when full boost comes in 1st as well. Get those times down, lets see some LOW 13's.
