Late notice, but I'm heading to Capitol at 4:30 today for some runs on the 'new' track. Supposedly it is much improved. We'll see!

Anyone is welcome to watch/race with me. $20 to race $10 to watch (damn good price).

 

Let me know the new track prep is, and how the crowd is. I'm looking to get back to the drag strip in a couple weeks (probably Cecil , but possibly Capitol depending)

 

How is it?

 

The Glen Dirty crowd won't change

 

Same crowd but way less packed -- hot laps from 5:00 to 7:00. New staff much more friendly and accommodating. Prep is definitely better too, not quite cecil/MIR but close.

Best E/T was 12.04 @ 116 / 1.71 on econo street map. Race map would have been high 11's / 118+mph which is on par with my previous bests at MIR/cecil especially considering 50% humidity.

Overall I approve. Just wish they sold unleaded :P

 

How much power on that econo map?

 

395ish econo vs 415ish race

 

Just to clarify the only diff. between the two maps is knock control. The ECU is hyper sensitive and pulls timing constantly with it on. So basically the more boost I throw at it the more timing it pulls on the econo map. I probably could have ran the race map yesterday but don't feel comfortable without a gallon or two of 103 octane for insurance. I wish capitol would start having some for sale sometime.

 

Don't you have a sunoco dealer around you....a lot sell 5g of race gas inside.

 

^ don't know the answer to your question, but I love the avatar haha your fronts are wider than my rears

 

Honda Z FTW

 

Anyone interested in going to Capitol this coming Friday?

 

Nobody wants to see your 400+whp Z runs high 12's...

 

I call 13's.

 

Place some bets on it?

 

on street tires, that is a good assumption.

 

I'll just put "N/T" on my window.

 

Weather permitting I will try to make this friday. Should have the Z1 aluminum driveshaft installed thurs, hoping for results.

 

So far it's on for Friday. Hopefully more Z/G's show up. Last week (aside from me and derrick) there was a stock-ish 370Z running high 13's and a stillen'd 350 doing mid 14's. So far this season G's are king.

 

Wow those times are terrible lol

I go to the track to laugh at people and drink beer.
