Default My G and the 1/8 Mile

Went drag racing tonight at Qualcomm.

I couldn't beat my best time so I have to settle for this.

Mods: X02 & Motordyne 5/16 spacer

Tires: Goodyear Eagle RS-A All Seasons 245/40/19 rear at 30psi.

(spacer didn't help me at all since I have a REVUP which doesn't help without the MREV2 according to Hydrazine's posts.)

Reaction: .580
60 ft: 2.251 (not bad imo considering my tires)
MPH: 77.85
ET: 9.285


Makes me wonder if the spacer slowed me down. I pulled better 60ft's and it was cooler and I still couldn't beat my best time.

I know there are factors, but I lost 1 MPH and .1 with the spacer.

Too bad I didn't get weather conditions. the last time I ran, it was a few degrees warmer.

Did a total of 27 runs.

For you guys who don't know, this is what the track looks like.

LOL! It's cool. Driver isn't as performance oriented as it is here.

I don't think the spacer slowed you down, unless you have a vacuum leak. I had the AAM angled spacer and it made a noticable difference, but I had to tighten the intake down a few times, weeks after it was installed.

That was on my 04.
