  • Results from weekend race

    Well guys like I promised, here are the results of my race on saturday. I was very please with my car and how much it responded to the cat back and headers. Also the fan switch was a very big help in the results. These runs where done with maybe 30-40 pounds (I think) of stuff in the car that I usually drive around in and also with a full tank of gas

    first run of the day: Left on Idle and didn't pay attention
    reaction 1.220
    60ft 2.286
    330ft 6.062
    1/8 et 9.151
    1/85 mph 79.84
    1/4 et 14.061
    1/4 mph 100.65

    2nd run of the day and the best! : Stalled it up to 1,200
    reaction .664
    60 ft 2.041
    330 ft 5.713
    1/8 et 8.749
    1/8 mph 81.06
    1/4 et 13.596
    1/4 mph 101.87

    3rd run of the day: Stalled it up to 800 and didn't get a good burn out

    reaction .598
    60 ft 2.082
    330 ft 5.788
    1/8 et 8.847
    1/8 mph 80.43
    1/4 et 13.736
    1/4 mph 100.88

    Last run of the day: Beat a supra to the finish line stalled it up to 800

    reaction .614
    60 ft 2.032
    330 ft 5.740
    1/8 et 8.801
    1/8 mph 80.33
    1/4 et 13.693
    1/4 mph 100.92

    I was so excited that I ran the 13.5, I took a break from racing to show my girlfriend the results . Thats when I lost my concentration and game plan. I was thinking I should of kept racing. I know I could of got a lower et if I would of taken all the stuff out of my car and tried different brake torque techniques. I just wanted to see how fast the car would be with all the stuff I drive around in everyday. And it was the first time I have my own stickey tires to use and also practice on doing a good burn out. And finally I actually did a good burn out. I only raced 4 times only, since I had to do some christmas shopping. The next time I go out to the track I will now know how to do a good burn out, I will take the stuff out of my car and also try the different brake torque techniques. Again guys I couldn't done this with out your help. Again I appreciate all the help and sorry for the long post. Thanks and happy holidays.

    If you can get into the 1.8-1.9 60' range and race with only 1/4 tanks of gas (if I recall correctly each gallon of gas weighs around 7lbs), you should be in the low 13's pretty easily. What kind of tires are you using? What psi front vs. rear? Are you removing the end links of the front sway bar?

      The tires I run is the nitto 555r drag radials. I put them between 20psi and 18 psi. I didn't stay at the track too long to put the psi lower.
