Very nice times Rikki, with a good 60'. I'm glad the engine did not blow up on you.

Riki, great numbers for a stock FD.

I can't drive worth crap on drag strip though with the wheel hop so you're the MAN in my book.

Roughly 1/2 sec off your previous best.

The Lexus is supposed to put out over 200 h.p over yours yet isn't any faster?

Traction, power curves, and gearing affect more of the ET and MPH than HP.

I kinda doubt he is lying.....everyone and their brother were at the track to verify this.

Nice Run Rikki,

With Slicks that 60 ft time could be a little better... Just imagine if you shave 2 tenths off your 60 ft. Mid 11's are withen your grasp.

Were you still running 11 psi? or 14 psi? of boost?

jc.

fantastic times...really nice.....

those were slicks on the car from what he said...mid elevens are still a way off....though it would be awesome if you can do it.

Ive never ran with slicks before...what kind of time difference does running with slicks create vs running with street tires?

a big port and non seq would be a lot of fun on the track...still wouldnt want it on the street daily though.

congrats though....btw..what was the fastest car of the day at that track?

As I have said many times, prove it with the time slips and dyno graphs.

Looks like you did.

I think BMW boy is mad because those modifiying those M3s with bolt ons will only get them into the 13s, E36=good looking car, but crappy performance.

Anyways, my motor should be up and running this week and after i get her broke in i plan to hit the track. Pretty sure i'll be in the 11sec club also, running stock twins parallel.

Rikki Congradulations and that is an AWESOME MPH for slicks! I bet you could pull 1-2 more mph on street tires!

ERRRRRRRRRR

BTW: I was the racing Ryan when he ran his 11.9.
Yea thats me on the time slip.

Ryan I got video clip of the run.. Let me know if you
want me to send it to you, and have it hosted
some where..

I am very bitter I didn't get i nto the 12's. gawd dammit.
My best time was 13.25 @ 103mph.
My 60ft times are still awlful..
Maybe it it wasn't one of the hottest days of the summer
maybe i could of gotten 12's. But considering it was like 98Degree's out. I shouldn't feel to bad..

Just think what Ryan would run on a cooler day..

Was very funny to find out Ryan was against PFS
during 1st elimnation round..

So who was n the finals?? Ray and who??
Was it the redsupra with 60shit nitrous,
that eliminated me by running 10???

Congratulations Ryan, this pretty much makes the power claims validated. Since the AFR you are running is deemed proprietary I assume you are running a bit on the lean side.
Have you considered water injection as protection?
It would be a shame if your engine doesn't last a while.
