4166, Night at the track!
Posted by XtremeRS, May-28-04 05:07 PM
I wasn't planning on gettting to the track until I had my Retrofit LSD and new clutch installed, but a friend called me up and wanted me to go, so I said what the hell..The first time out this year, and I did better than last year, running more boost of course. It was pretty cool out, with temps in the upper 50's..good for power, but bad for traction. I only got two runs in, mostly because of my stupid clutch..Best run was the very first one.

.741 Reaction
2.421 60ft(blaa)
9.429 1/8

End ET= 14.166 @105.88 MPH! haha

With that trap speed, and a good 2.0 or better 60ft, I can def run low 13's. Boost was set at 15 psi.

Second run, was lined up to a stock EVO! I was geeked of course..He slept at the line with a 1.517 reaction time, to my .924(not the best either haha), and i was ahead of him all through second gear, then I shifted to 3rd, and the clutch just started slipping like crazy..i was sooo pissed..I know I would have had em at the end..He ran a 14.069 @ 98.64 MPH that run, and i just coasted pretty much to the end at a 16.265 at 66MPH.

Oh well, it was fun, and now i have a new best time to beat..Once I get that LSD and clutch in, maybe I can launch this thing a bit harder to get some good 60ft's. My toyo T1-S tires did very well, and hooked up great, even with the cold track temps..those tires have impressed me. With a 2.0 60ft, I should click off a 13.2 or a 13.3 with a clean run..
