I finally got to go to the track again. I changed some things since last time. I took out my popcharger in favor of an 06 airbox. I also replaced my 18" 5-zigen GN+'s with a set of heavy a** 19" Axis Crux wheels. I only got these because of the tires, BFG KDW-2s. I got a pretty good deal, and blah blah blah. Long story short, I got my new PB's with 60's. I got a 2.122, and a 2.123 back to back, BUT I still only ran a 13.9 and 14.00 because I had no speed. I was barely trapping at 100mph, and before I was trapping at 102+. Oh well, time for a nice set of track wheels.

Some guy had a cool handheld DA calculator, it said the DA was 2500ish. The thing was really cool looking. Havent checked how accurate it actually was yet.

 

Your 60-foot time looks OK. 19-inch wheels must weigh 25 pounds each. Not exactly a drag racing asset.

 

Not at all. I just got a really good deal on them, and the tires on my 5-zigens were shot, so they needed to be replaced. I picked up this set of Axis wheels for the price, if not cheaper, then tires for the 5 zigens. I really couldnt say no. Im working on something more appropriate for the track.

My last time out, I ran 13.9 @ 102.34, and that was with a 2.3 60'. My car is good for 13.6, I think, and I will achieve this goal. Im going back in 2 weeks, if not sooner hopefully.

I also was bracket racing today as well. Not much luck today though, lost in the first race. I dialed in at 13.9, hoping to improve on my 60' that much more, being my 3rd of the day. It was the same, and I ran a 14.004. The other guy was off his dial in by only .035 or something. So needless to say, I lost.

 

Nice times!

You should pick up some OEM 17's and stick DR's on it....should make a nice difference.

I've been meaning to hit the track as well, but my stupid car is broken

 

Thats not very exciting. Hopefully you can get that fixed. Im working on some track setup, its just a matter of deciding on my many options.

 

I wouldnt ditch the Pop-charger for any stock airbox...

 

nice times

 

Ya, Im not really sure if it was that good of an idea. I wanted to try it out, seeing as how the velocity stack on the 06 box is bigger. I didnt feel like I lost that much, but Im not that sure anymore. I took the filter out on the second run, and it didnt change my MPH at all. I figured with my air duct, the stock box would fit suit it better. I may have been wrong.
