edit -
Hopefully, it's because
1. my ECU only saw me get on my car once, so it didn't go into race mode (which usually takes 10+ runs)
2. today's weather was in the 80s and high 70s with a ~50% humidity
3. I bogged real bad, hence my 1.9xx 60'
4. I'm human too so I have my bad days

I was on slicks. But the thing is.. many ppl are doing 1.9 anyway with slicks, even on the top 25 list thread. So maybe it's not too bad.Anyway, I think it was the combined effect of the above mentioned negativities. I've never seen my car and myself perform so poorly on the track, both at the same time.
I sucked at launching and my car couldn't even trap 104 - pathetic. I'm gonna go cry myself to sleep.

I'm actually fixing my car right now. I broke a wheel stud launching on the slicks last time. So, since tomorrow's race day for me again, I want all 5 studs to be there. Plus, I'll do another DIY once I get done. Mackie was supposed to help but.. that bastage didn't answer my IMs. I'm not helping him on his sways installation.

Todd, when I said Mackie, I meant ZSpectrum.
Anthony, what wheels are you getting?

i just couldn't justify spending 1000+s on something so easily susceptible to damage...
especially with me driving

Brian maybe you should get a dyno to get a base line.

He has the uprev so it has been dynoed. This dyno would been different numbers...altough I would like to see the difference between a uprev car and ours.
