Lowest C6Z Bolt on RWHP track results are in!
First off the title I dedicate to Granny RobZ.
OK interesting night to say the least. The car felt decent in the 80+degree weather and very humid. Putting a helmet on in the lanes SUCKED! We logged some runs and seen a few minor things and had some intereesting results. Overall I'm not happy but not really dissappointed in the results. Heres a break down of the runs.
1st pass air temp at 86*, tire pressure at 20psi warm, approx 3000 RPM launch spun 1st, hopped a little and then in 2nd gear it felt like the clutch slipped bad or tire spin. No clutch smell came out so we decided it must've been tire spin.
60ft-1.843
330ft-4.897
1/8mi-7.351
1//8mph-102.52
Shut the car down drifted to 12.32 at 76.70mph
2nd pass by the logs I was actually at 3700rpm launch and I thought I was lower LOL. I aired the tires down to 16psi warm cause I was watching ALOT of cars spinning bad on launch and part way out. Air temp approx 82*. Car spun alot of first gear again with light hopping. The front end stayed up so it felt ok so I stayed into despite my better judgement.
60ft-1.827
330ft-4.856
1/8mi-7.302
1/8mph-101.54
1000ft-9.380
1/4mi-11.137
1/4mph-129.12
3rd pass tires at 16psi hot.I got warned in the lanes the guy was sorta nice about it to stay above 11.50's. As I pull up the line they stop and walk over to say dont run below 11.50 and I said I know no problem. Tried 3500rpm launch. Car actually felt good with a little kick to the right at the top of first but felt decent enough. My judgement was not only stupid but off on how the good the run was.
60ft-1.846
330ft-4.848
1/8mi-7.283
1/8mph-101.84
1000ft-9.356
1/4mi-11.112
1/4mph-129.22
Well I came to the tower to get the slip. The lady instead of being in the booth is standing out in the lane. She said I'm not to give you your slip,everyone is flipping out on the radio up there right now. I appologize and she gives me the slip as I hear on the radio 2 or 3 people yelling I told him to keep it above 11.49 I TOLD HIM, I knew he was going to do that. he's done!!!! HE'S DONE HERE!! I told my passenger be ready when I get up there cause they are PISSED! So I run up to where you come in and he hops cause the one tech guy that warned me was staring me down in the lanes and looked like he was gonna walk over as I took off.
So I'm happy with the 1/8mph and 1/4mph's. Not happy I couldnt get the car to hook well enough to make what looks like a easy 10second pass in the heat with just a 1.75ish 60ft would've easily put me there. If I were in the 1.6's things would've got real interesting. DA calculators were showing between +1650ft to +2200ft. Using the weather channel for barometer, my car for the air temp.
I'm pretty far from getting my goal of 10.5x's at 132mph but cold temperatures, a clutch, lighten the car up with some track prep I'll do everything I can to get it there.

I must admit it was a VERY interesting night. The best was Bruce telling the burn out contest winner to make sure you finish it in her ***. LMAO
Also Lt. Dan almost really did become like Lt. Dan when that stinking Honda started swinging donuts and came straight for us. Thought we were goin to lose our legs. That's ok because Dan could atleast drive his car since he don't need to push a clutch or anything.
