2.4 best 60ft here... next time I am gonna go hard though, I want a low 13 or late 12. After the WB tuning etc...

 

dam i couldn't hit a mid 14 when i raced. Hopefully when everything gets done which won't be till next summer because the track is close i will be running alot faster.

 

wow, only ONE mention of possibly grenading the tranny! You guys got REALLY lucky!

 

Bah, im not to worried about the trans. as much as the CV joints... but they started knocking awhile ago.

 

thats normal don't worry about them.

 

Daniel,

Were those times at Pueblo or Bandimere?

Keep in mind that right at 100mph is DAMN fast for a street car at 6000ft. You will find that the C5s magic number that they try to break is 100mph at Bandimere.

I don't have the time slips with me so this is just from memory. I think at Bandimere I ran about a 2.2 60 ft time (crappy) and 14.5@103. All that was run while I had a leaking head gasket. I was running 245 AVS interemediates. Keep in mind, that roadrace tires with small side walls aren't good for drag racing.

A 951 is damn hard to drag race, but it can still be fun to try. You could get a 951 to drag race well, but, you will sacrifice in other areas. For instance you want monster weight transfer to the rear when launching. That is not good for handling. But still, a 951 can hold its own against many cars.

i know my car is much faster then when i ran it. I know i will trap over 100mph now except the track is closed.

 

That's what I said when my friend asked me
Your track is closed? Dont tell me it's snowing in CO already...

 

basically it is closed for friday night drags and street night. All there really is is like trick or treat races but not sure if everyone can race at that.

 

Just thought I'd throw an update, a bunch of friends got me to go back with them again last night. Cut a 2.2 60' and a 13.9 @ 102. Now if I could just get a tial wastegate so I would actually hold boost (still only running 15psi with it tapering down to 9 or 10 at redline.)

 

Thats a pretty good 60. I will be out again in a month or so when I have the new Link in and WB sorted. May have an aquamist in too, I very badly want to run a 12 second pass.

 

After seeing your times with a stock turbo i better hit 13's or i am throwing my car away

 

Daniel. Keep in mind that you are running at 6000ft (or thereabouts).

The correction factor at bandimere is about .92 (time) and 1.07 (speed)

That means a 14.7@100 (I at bandimere is "equal" to a 13.5@107 at sea level. You aren't doing that bad.

Yeah I'm only at 1000ft elevation, or so.



.......Cant say I'm not proud though

 

Ok, you have a light car! That makes me feel better
