yeah. i took some guy by over .2 at the tree, he was slow on his time by .2 so i basically had .4 on him, and like an idiot i broke out. lol. but i guess i deserved it, jack broke out against me the round before by .001.

ill get my 13.6 at infineon, i dont wanna cheat and go to a faster track. lol

 

Get on the brakes when you are far enough ahead, but I'm sure you already know that. I got on the brakes one night out there and I didn't realize I was looking at the car at the starting line and this STI was in my blind spot and he blew by me like I was standing still. I was pissed at myself for two weeks.

 

lol. yeah i was on the brakes. i guess not enough though, i must have been way ahead. i think my trap was like 88-90 so i obviously slowed down a lot, i think i was just a boatload ahead of where i ought to have been

 

It's strange about that. Last time I was out there I coasted for about 100 feet and still turned a low 13.1, but had a 90mph trap. Then you wonder what you would have turned if you kept your foot in it.

 

exactly. i hate that. it seems that every time i run a PB its braking for a bit. i dont think ive run a single PB crossing the line at WOT. strange really

 

That's why I have a hard time letting off the gas. Ya never know when it'll be "that" run.

Hoooper - what do you mean faster track? I think some feel Sac is faster, but having been at both tracks, my best times are within .1s of each other between them.

 

.1 could be the difference between a 13 and 12 for me. I have seen a .2 difference between them.

 

what he said ^^^. a lot of people seem to think that sac town is a faster track. ive never been there so i dont know, but it seems to be too high of a percentage to overlook

 

back from the dead after the 2 week NHRA break. who's goin? blew up half of my precat, so i hollowed them out. maybe it will make me faster

 

I am going out of town, so I'll miss this one.

 

STILL BREAKING IN THE NEW MOTOR, SO I WONT MAKE IT EITHER...

 

the good: 2-step and speed shift worked well. really good and consistent launches for street tires.

the bad: im retiring the car as far as drag racing goes. the constant refusal to get into 3rd is just too much for me. its no fun to go out, pull great 60's, rip 2nd and then get stiffarmed at 3rd. i coasted through the finish line 3 times out of six runs tonight...FTL!!!!!

any suggestions for a cheap RWD that comes v8 stock and isnt a huge boat, for drag ONLY use of course

 

Bump 4 Dis Tread!!!! I Need An Oil Change... Break In Is Over...

 

I spotted 1 z at the track yesterday. The nismo, was running 13.8

 

if it was red that was me and im not a nismo if it was black it was an actually nismo....my best is a 13.6 cali tracks suck =/.......i kno i can do better but not when its 107 degrees outside lol

 

Yup, that was your car.

 

Why do Cali tracks suck?
