1.89 60 foot
7.94 1/8th
12.33 1/4

93vr r-1 with 91,210 miles on original motor!!

First time I ever raced on a 1/4 mile track. I was pretty happy but I was on MT ET Streets with NO burn out trying to solve my wheel hop problems. I have gone quicker in the 1/8th (1.80 60 foot, 7.80 1/8th). So with a good burn out and putting it all together I think high 11's are in the near future. As far as mods: HKS F-CON w/FCD (I know what you are thinking!!) , Profec B boost control, down pipe, mid pipe, cat back, Pettit IC, Pettit Intake, ACT clutch & light flywheel kit, cosmo fuel pump, short shifter, Mickey T's ET Drag's (DOT approved), lots of other non-power things-Eibach springs, Koni yellows, guages......

just curious are these bad times for my mods??

i have a 86 gxl mods:racingbeat header road race,one cat,k&n filter,tb mod,msd spark plug wires,no a/c,89+intake manifold with the vdi not working it is wired open
what is wrong with my car. i don't think the 6 ports are working because the hose keeps coming off the air pump.and i think i have a vacuum leak.

rx-7fc, I'm 95 % sure that you problem is you 5th and 6th ports not opening. I got a faster time (16.4 with an intake) in my 88 GTU wither wired open ports. My trap speed was like 85, so I'd say check your ports.

i am going to fix the hose for it won't come off the air pump and get the vdi to work

i would say the car can definitely run a faster 1/4 mile you have about 2 tenths or more you can make up in the 60' and with the mph your getting you should be hitting low 13's! launch the car about 5-6k rpm with doing a burnout and lower your tire pressure to about 14psi. the timeslip i'm attaching is from my worse than stock FD that had many problems but still ran 13's with 8psi of boost and 12psi in my tires with a good burnout!

turborotarypower thanks for the advice i'll try launching at a higher rpm next time at e-town

Spring Nationals^
All my races except for the first three have been w/o the passenger seat and spare. As for the 16.9 runs....one was cause I dumped too high and put my foot to the floor(DOH!) and the second was missing 3rd. I ALWAYS get my best runs against cars I KNOW I won't beat(except for my best run....just edged out a 92-95Civic Hatch). As for ISS#1 and Spring Nationals...it was warm those two days...is that why my times are higher(I'm blaming it on the weather either way:D )? ISS#2 I ran against a 300ZX(13.997@97.24) and a white FD(12.208@114.66)...which goes to prove I do better against cars I know I can't beat. As for the two redlights....nervous I guess. It was in the later rounds at both events. ISS#1 2nd round....S.N. Round-Robin. I need to work on my R/T..but how? Sorry for such a long post. If you can give me any pointers on how to do better...please do so. BTW, my only mod is in my sig.

no problem. if you have any other questions in the future don't be afraid to ask!

I am in need of some drag radials bad. My best 60' of the day was a 2.18 and I dont think that I could get it any lower on these tires.

What tires to turn 1.73 60' time???

the new world record for a rotor is jose "siguel" torres in his 1993 mazda rx-7

this is a 20b engine. look for siguel to dip into the 7.0 this weekend in maple grove.
car runs turbo alcohol, no NOS.

look at your 60FT that explains it ALL!
my TII ran 13.7 with a 1.92 60FT on street tires.
the launch is the hardest thing it is crucial to getting a good time at the drag strip!
practice makes perfect :)

Finally broke 12's!!!

2nd time at E-town with same mods plus RB inlet duct
60' 2.231

MPH 106.30

you need your 60ft 2.00 or below to get a nice time :)

workin on it..
i was told that for every tenth you lose on your 60ft..its roughly a 2 tenths gain on your quarter et...is this correct ?

yeah as long as you are driving good. i drove streetdreamzny car on saturday. i ran 13.6 @ 107 with 2.3 60 ft. he ran 13.6 @ 109 with a 2.00 60ft and more boost! driving better makes a BIG difference. the launch is a big step but don't forget about trying shift so fast you chirp every gear :D
