1/4, first time at the track
 

Went today on one of those run what you brung type days at California Speedway in Fontana.

First time at the track, .80 bar boost, big heavy 18" rims, spinning all the way through 1st and 2nd gear.

Which lane were you in?

14.8 not bad :)

That's a pretty good mph for that time.

Yeah I take it you were in the right lane? Still not bad for being on 18" Blitz wheels.

wut lane? i hope you didnt run a 14.8, even with big rims that is kinda bad IMO, maybe im wrong...
geoff

Dude - sorry I was thinking he was in the left. 14.8????? wtf! I think a integra type r does that. Personally I don't think that is good with 40lbs of wheels weight or not.

You can definately get that E.T down a lot, 2.2 60 foot time is killing your E.T. Honestly though, that isn't that bad Teddy for your first time out. :) Your clutch makes the car a little tricky to launch, like an on/off switch. Probably either ngrabs like a bitch or bogs. 114.3mph trap speed is good for what - 350-360bhp?

Uhm guys, i was in the left lane....

12.843@114.43mph


i changed the image on the original post.

what are your mods.

oh thank god man :D you scared me

Hey teddy, I got my parts all packed up and ready to ship to you for some polishing, can you tell me where to send them. By the way - Good 1/4 mile time

12.8? Oh well that's tons better and great for your first time at the track and on 18" wheels. Nice run.

wow dude you have a lot of horsepower.

what do ya think around 350 at the wheels?

what mods?

I can just imagine if your 60 foot was 2.0 you would be in the real low 12s

is .8 bar 12 or 13 psi?

I remember the first time I went I got a 13.5 @ 105.3 at stock boost with stock cat, dp, cb, intake, and mild streetport with the pettit ecu. 2.204 60 foot time so im wondering what I would run now with the midpipe and 13 psi

VERY GOOD JOB I'M HAPPY FOR YA

my car is down so this excites me again!

11.6 psi.

Nice run Teddy. Very strong trap speed too. :bigthumb:

I would guess about 320rwhp and with a good run you could probably hit a 14.3 urrr I mean 12.3

What are your mods TTT

no cats, intercooler, pfc, intake, street port. that's about it.

nice nice
impressive tedsta

were ya sleeping at the light? Bad R/T, but good et.

Awww, little dragbear ;)

You going again teddy?

Good Times man Congrats:).

Get some ET streets, C16, and drop the clutch @7000 rpms!! Then you will see a big difference;). Oh yeah turn up the boost a bit.

-Rikki
Congrats again

and pray you don't blow your diff.

True True... A friend of mine had BFG DragRadials on his FD and destoyed his diff at the track. :eek:

My R/T's are pretty bad =( I got it better though maybe .700 But the 12.8@114mph run was still my best time even with that bad R/T and bad 60' and was my first run

Man, I saw 2 FD's blow their rear ends on the track at the same time launchign :eek: last year.

On this run, I had half a tank of crappy kalifornia brand 91 Gas on .80 bar boost. I upped the boost to .90 on the 2nd and 3rd runs but all i did was spin all the way down the freagin track. Serious, I spun all the way until maybe 70mph where it hooked up.

I'm going to beg Waysho to let me borrow her stock rims one day and buy some drag tires and make another attempt.

I'm getting hooked!!!!

What's a good brand and size for a tire for drag racing that will fit on stock rims?

Or better yet, what's a good rim for drag racing?
