Default finally got some times for the t/a on radials

only made two passes since people kept breakin stuff.

first one wasnt that great, just stabbing it off idle it went 12.30's with an awful 2.17 60ft.

2nd pass i brake stalled the converter and it left alot nicer, spun less and moved out good.

60' .000
330' 5.112
1/8 7.749@93.29
1000' 10.020
1/4 11.937@117.60

i think itd go 11.70-80's or so in a little better weather with more practice, the DA's were 2200+. not bad for 18 inch street radials . ill probably make a few more passes on these and then get some real tires and try to get some 10's of my own.

Set the front shocks on 4 and do a killer burn out next time and stall that verter up up up to at least 2500 to 2800...Stand on the brakes and stall stall stall

car's doing ok, the mysterious trans leak went away, ive kept an eye on it and it hasnt leaked anymore since then so i guess it was just a fluke.
im not even sure what i stalled it to, i remembered at the last second and did it while the tree was coming down, i thought i rolled through the lights at first. im guessing the 60 was somewhere around low 1.9 or high 1.8 judging by how it picked up over the first pass and the fact that the guy next to me cut a 1.9 on nearly the same r/t as me and i never saw him. ran it just like i drive it, didnt even bother to drop the tire pressure. this was my first 11 second pass too.

Keep at it,I bet you'll run 11.70's or better in alittle better air than 2200FT next time out...Then throw skinnies,slicks on it and go run the car in Oct and you'll have a 10 Sec pass

I knew there wasnt any leaks,that car doesnt burn oil or leak a drop of anything.It might have 2500 miles on the whole drivetrain as of now,U got a killer car Hondakiller and I do miss her...
