With 480whp it should be running low 122's to 125mph in a decent weight evo. Bogging at the launch and how fast you shift will make a difference on trap speeds.
Yours is a 6 speed right? What rpm where you shifting at and what gear did you cross the line at?

Keep it up, it takes some practice but you'll keep getting faster and faster the more you go.

 

Good Luck!

 

waste of time......go to a real track and race.....like with turns and stuff.....

 

why the hell would you make that comment? Are you kidding me? The guy took his car to the track and posted his times. Everyone else in here has good comments and your the only one to say something stupid like that!

You knew before you clicked on this thread that it was going to be about his times?!

Some people enjoy the strip while others like auto x.

each to his own i guess

Good LUck with the car, keep us posted on times

 

im actually a girl but thanks.

 

the green light wasnt coming on the methanol so i have no idea whats going on, it was trapping 115 with no launch the first time and a 2.9 60'. Then ran a 12.2 later on with a 1.9 and it still trapped 115. I made 4 passes and the trap speed never changed between 2.9,2.8,2.5,1.9 60' times. So i may have to talk to martin about the methanol because i filled the tank up before last night and when we checked it today its still at the full line.

Yes, its a 6 speed, i was shifting at 7,500 with the 264/272 cams in there now and i was shifting into 5th just crossing the line.

And the track prep was terrible.

 

That's awesome!! I'm sure that with some more seat time, your E.T. will drop. Sweet ride btw, I saw it at the AMS bbq.

 

thanks. yes hopefully, and by next spring with the built bottom end low 10's shouldnt be too far.

 

Before you built the block,hit low 11 or high 10 first .You should have Martin set the rev limit to 8.7k,so you could cross the line at 4th gear .But,pratice is most important now!!Try hard to cut a 1.6 60' and shift in .2 sec.

 

well i figured out why i wasnt running what it should have. One of the lines on the methanol was jiggling and i pushed that down but that didnt do anything and then i hit the test button on the controller and went and tested it and whala the green light came on and pulled alot harder than it was last night. So hopefully next tuesday i can get my low 11 120+ time slip.

 

Good Luck.

 

Let the leg humping begin

 

What clutch do you have? A good twin disc + practice can do wonders

 

That should be able to help your traps, but also not having to shift into 5th would also help immensly. To improve your E.T.s is gonna take more and more practice, but you should be able to get the hang of it.

 

i have a exedy twin disc, it grabs pretty hard, went to a spot where i usually test out the car and it was wheel hopping bad in 1st then started moving. Till then ill just wait for my 11 sec slip.
