Default New Times At The Track

WELL ALIL DIFFERENT than last time...

I three runs in.... well i dunno wat to think of my times anymore... cuz everyone seems to not be running that fast.... i seen an 03 cobra run a 14 flat....and other ls1's run in the 14's mustang gt's 14.5 and up....

my first race against some honda accord...
honda............................................. ........me
reacton.......1.0721 ->MINE -> .7402
60ft............2.4836 -> 2.1253
330ft..........4.4236 -> 3.7574
1/8et..........10.9379 -> 9.1333
1/8mph.......63.59 -> 79.35
1000et........14.2327 -> 11.8260
1/4et...........17.0674 -> 14.1139

1000et........11.9485 -> 11.2836
1/4et...........14.2428 -> 13.2625
1/4mph.........98.45 -> 114.62


THIS RACE WAS AGAINST A NEW STI! WITH ALL THESE GUAGES AND STUFF... I THINK I DID PRETTY GOOD AGAINST THIS AWD CAR...

reacton........ .9253 -> -->MY CAR 1.0341
60ft............1.9327 -> 2.2548
330ft..........3.7529 -> 3.8813

1/4et...........14.2674 -> 14.2590

Running a "little" slow. I ran my best of 11.32@96.34 mph on 1000' on my auto/2.73 and temp was high of 94, partly cloudy today. Only mods are lid/K&N, true duals and free mods.

Times don't make sense unless you are experiencing quite a bit of density altitude. With that 2.1 sec. 60' you should've run somewhere in the 13 sec. 1/4 mile area. Your trap speed is very low. I highly recommend a tune up (New wires/plugs/fuel filter, etc...). My car was trapping close to 104mph when it was stock, and most of the LS1's in my area, which is at altitude, trap atleast 102mph.

Not trying to be rude, as your 60' is pretty good. Your car is just outta whack.

BTW, launch at the 3rd ember. As soon as you see it, hit the accelerator.

Trap speed is very low. Even in the heat I would expect you to trap around 103-105.
I would make a great bracket car.

EGR and AIR has nothing to do how your car is running if its already deleted.

i dunno man.. but it always seem like i take off hella fast off the line.. but people always catch up and freakin pass me!
i remember racing an 02 ss with all the SLP options... he had an m6 and same headers.. but other than that it was all the slp stuff... and i took off on him.. but wen i hit 3rd gear.. he freakin past me out of nowhere.. i thought he sprayed... crap.. its like i have no top end i guess....
