#6102, "DSM-ZERO goes to the track"
Sep-13-09 04:00 PM by DSM-ZERO

OK everyone let me start off by saying i have a new found respect for people that can go low 10's and 9's even 8's FWD with a 5 speed

Ok the being said I went 12.844 @ 120mph MISSING 3rd gear....
1.7 60 foot
5.1 330 foot
8.0 1/8 mile

I did not get that many passes cause it started raining and the one time i did go for it i miss 3rd gear so the car fell outta boost, I put it back into 3rd and still run a 12.84.

This was a huge learning experience for me. I wa staking in everything the shop was telling me and just trying to do my best.

The other Passes i did were to just see if the car was driving straight and then learning how to launch it....ALSO MY 2step WAS not working.....I was just launching the car off of my e-brake.

I love this car and i know next sunday im just gonna go faster all in all im very pleased with how good i did for it being my first time out .... I just need more seat time thats all

THANKS to PFI Brent, B, Cotter Pin, and Alicia For all your help, info and support

Seat time will help a lot. I'm sure there are people out there who can help you with your techniques and offer pointers, but seat time will net you the best results.

Thats great ets hows your e-brake did you burn it up.

Have you tried rising the rpm to 3000-3500 launch from this.

New to the term 2 step you mean the rev.limiter box wasnt working.

I don't think he can go any higher than his current launch, lol.

Excellent, man. Looking great. You needed to blow off a couple of runs just to get an idea of where all the parts and pieces were gonna land. Need input on shift points, launch points, tracking of the car, boost levels etc.....All those brand new, one off, pieces just generate more to decipher at first.

You're doing consistant 1.7's right off the bat (boosting off the e-brake on top of that). That's a huge step in itself. Like you said, all you're looking at now is seat time and shift points. Fuckin' A excellent

Great first time out, congrats,

So I guess that your having good traction if your doing 1.7s on the 60ft...

Nice #'s more seat time till you get the hang of it...

I know I got better results with a couple of visits to the track. I improved my time by almost 2's ...

The launch was where I needed more practice, so I went to an 1/8 mile track. But seems your already doing good at the line, so keep up the practice!

Hoping to see 10's from you before the year ends! And you too Bullet!

Status- Need to do break-in...

Try not to challenge me, I'd rather tie up than lose. Either way you NEVER WIN.... - Me..
