Don't forget that this time of year temps are way cool and HP goes up nicely,hell in this cold weather it feels like I am running NOS every time I hit high Boost

 

times dont really make sense but whatever...good times

 

Something I have noticed with my Evo is the shift point for 3-4 gear. It seems to fall right at the 1/8th mile mark. If your flash allows you to shift at 8000, you can probably shift after the 1/8th, resulting in higher mph in the 1/8, but no effect on the 1/4. I have noticed my 1/8th mile speeds vary some with little change in 1/4 speeds, due to the 3-4 shift and whether it occured before or after the 1/8th mile line.

 

This was all done on a mail in flash,,, dont know if that was mentioned... I dont know why the times dont make sense .. he posted the slips.

Motovicity is a big supplier of ours ..and it was my pleasure to be able to help them out.

I'd like to see 11's with no cams ...

anyone give me some tip on how to shift.... i saw 6 evos at the track mostly running high 13s and 14s.... i was the 2nd fastest one
so its got to be something with shifting ,,,, most of evo driver seems suck at the track

 

Need time slip info,60',330,660 et and mph,1000' e.t. and 1/4 et and mph to be able to tell you what went "wrong"?

 

what doesnt make sence is the 1/8. got to admit that 93 almost 94 mph in the 1/8 is hella fast to only end up trapping 111-112 in the 1/4. ive got 272/272 cams and trap 114-115 and usually only trap 89-91 in the 1/8. maybe i just suck

 

No, you don't suck. I hit my 12.0-12.1s at 112-113mph with 89-90mph in the 1/8th. People who trap 93-94 in the 1/8th ar trapping 117-120 in the 1/4, so this timeslip is kinda weird.

 

So is trapping 117-170

 

The guy has no cams ... its not bull .. whats soo hard to believe. He was happy and posted his slip..

I have no cams either, and I also ran 12.2 on pump gas, but I only hit 88mph in the 1/8th. I then gained 22mph in the back half for a total of 110mph. Hitting almost 94mph in the 1/8th is basically impossible without cams. To do it without cams AND ON PUMP GAS is inconceivable. To then only gain 19mph in the back half on such a powerful and well-tuned car makes it even more fishy. The thread originator later admitted that he wasn't on pump gas, but rather a mix of 94 and 100, which makes a HUGE difference in my car (.3s/3mph), but he said he wasn't tuned for it, nor did he raise his boost, so it shouldn't have made a big difference. Also, keep in mind that he had bad launches, which would make it even HARDER to get such an incredible mph in the 1/8th

Not saying the timeslip is bull or that he's lying, but if I wanted to, I could claim that I trapped 115.7 on stock cams yesterday, since that's what my timeslip said (view sig). Fortunately, though, I was observant enough to realize that the timers in the left lane were reading about 2mph high, so I am not claiming that I did nearly 116mph on just a tbe/mbc/flash. I'm only claiming 113.7mph, which is much more reasonable. It's possible that his timeslip is faulty just like mine was. You have to know that trapping 94mph in the 1/8th on pump gas with stock cams is not even close to believable...

 

The guy backed it up .. LOL .. you crack me up. What a waste of a thread.... So the track lied twice..

Hold 3rd longer next time and tell me your 1/8 MPH

When did he back it up? I see no response from him since Nov 22d when he said he planned on running again but on straight pump gas. If you mean he backed it up by doing it twice the same day in the same lane, then I could say that I backed up my lofty MPH by running 114-115 multiple times on race gas and 112 on pump gas, but I know those aren' t true, since they were in the same lane on the same day when the timers were faulty. For him to back it up, he'd have to do it at another track with the same mods/conditions/gas. Not sure why this cracks you up; it's certainly not funny that you don't realize the fallacy of trapping 94mph in the 1/8th on pump gas without cams. Come on, you guys know what you're doing. Look at any other Evo that hits 93-94mph in the 1/8th. Holding 3rd to a ridiculously high rpm would do absolutely nothing for a car without cams...it wouldn't give 93-94mph, nor would it provide a nice 12.2 timeslip on a terrible launch.

 

Are you ever going to make a post where you don't talk about yourself or your car?

When I ran 11.7@117.3 my 1/8 mph was 92 mph with cam's (and thats my fastest mph in the 1/8 to date) , cam gears , 110 octane , negtive setting on the afc and 30psi spikes . So for a him to trap 93-94 something is way off , but no way iam i saying that the tune/car/driver/tuner/parts are not right , just the slip . Iam baseing this off the coming knowledge shared here on Evom .
