wou hou!

First time on a real track this weekend...

Best run was 14.31

05 MCS
LSD
Toyo T1R
15%
JCW intake

was never able to come close to it with my other runs, they were all around 14.6 - 7. that one was the only one the wheels didn't squeel all through 1st, it bit down hard.

Also it was pretty cold out (13C)

I ran a 14.2 at 116. On street tires, and it was my first time out with the twincharge kit. I'm still working out some bug before I try to break any world records. Time for an upgraded trans and some new Halfshafts.

I pulled off a 14.268 @ 97.46 tonight.

My car has a 15% pulley, Alta CAI, Magnaflow Cat-Back

I was running my 17" S-Lites and run-flats.

Now that's fast!! What's the altitude of the strip? Nice reaction time, and fast 60ft!

My run was at Norwalk Raceway Park, I think the altitude there is 852 feet.
I'm not real sure what a "good" driver can do for 60' on street tires, but I'd like to think that I can go a little quicker than 2.16. During one of my slower runs of the night, I actually went 98.xxx MPH for my trap speed. I also was able to cut a .003 light. Now, if I can only figure out how to run my best ET, fastest MPH, and quickest R/T all on the same run..I'll be set!

You did amazingly well on runflats!

I cut a 1.85 or1.86 on toyo t1r's but that was a 16 inch wheel too

that exact car has been sold... it was a april production 05 without an lsd. There shouldn't be any varients that would make a difference. I would tell you the part number off of my s convertible but i didn't drive that today... i have a showroom full of s's... would you like me to take one off of one of those? Also, do you want me to see if i can find one with an lsd?

Can all NAM members that have ran the 1/4 please post their best times and what modifications/tires/etc you were running? I know FTR ran a 10.xx and I recall from recent posts reading more 13 and low 14 second runs...

I went to the strip to evaluate a performance product and did a 15.559 @ 92.84, 2.577/60ft with a passenger, picnic gear, tools, roll bar, ASC enabled, and a full tank of gas; it was a big surprise when I saw the time slip. Next opportunity I’ll go for times. 19%, 380cc injectors, Helix/GIAC flash, ENDYN head & supercharger, stock intake & header, Borla sport/street cat back, Avon M500 205/50/16s

I was looking for IAT deltas; consistency under load was a treatment the drag strip environment afforded. It was still a lot of fun even if I was dragging an anchor and not pursuing low ETs.

I will be attending my first drag race @ Speedworld in Phx AZ. I autox alot so a straight line should be interesting. What should I expect as far as times since I have read through this thread and didn't see any MC's. I don't have much in the way of mods for power but what I've done so far (if it makes any difference) high flow drop-in filter, Borla cat-back exhst, Mini Madness custom ECU tune, MSD ignition coil & wires, NGK irridium IX plugs, OEM 05' second gen. clutch...running on new Azenis rt-615 205/50 15" with Konig Feather 15" wheels. I was first thinking around et 16.5 but after reading this thread an et of 18.5 would'nt be bad.

i have a nickel that says you are mid sixteens.

try this! (i guessed 2500 lbs w/ driver and 120 hp - optimistic, right?)

you already know how to balance rpm and wheelspin from autox

Well you won and I didn't! Best run with the "Justa" was rt 1.026, et 16.795 @ 81 mph. Not sure I'll do this again but I could see (if I had a better rt) running in the high 15's.
