That clears it up for me! Fastest track in the country, bar none. Great weather, low elevation, what more could you ask for?

Congrats, still a smoking time on pump fuel.

 

just put taller tires...

i run 255/45 26" tire, stock is 25.1 i think...... i now do 124.1 @ 8k accord to gps...

i wasn't able to trap higher than 116.7

 

Has this been the highest trap speed on 93 for an ix on stock turbo?

 

What muffler are you running the bullet or the magnaflow one? I am about ready to buy their exhaust at this moment. BTW awesome time man,

 

My friend has the video on his camera, I am just waiting for him to import it.

I have the bullet Muffler.

I was not at street wars and my car is GG so I was not the silver car you saw. I went on friday night. I was going to go to street wars but after running this time I realized that it would not really be possible for me to go any faster with my current gearing. I tried shifting to fifth but kept getting locked out and as a result my fifth gear now grinds pretty bad. When I eventually pull my trans I will put in a new clutch and a 4th gear from an evo 8.

I want to keep my setup mostly the same and go back out with a taller 4th gear. With that alone I know I can trap around 119 - 120. When I do pulls on the street with 118-119 trap cars I am pretty much even.

On a side note, does anyone in the area have experience doing a clutch install or pulling a trans. Like everything else on my car I plan on rebuilding the trans myself and could always use some help from an experienced board member.

 

what race gas did you run and how much boost?!?

 

straight pump gas 93 from a gas station on 95 on my way down to E-town, I could even try to find the receipt if you really want.

Boost was around 21-22

 

Man I'd love to make a coupla passes at E-town. My 12.0 could be close to mid 11's

 

Im not sure if that is a good idea I'm having problems with mind and I got an 8 I have to shift into 5ft aswell but leave in fourth(120). I also have 9.8. But I don't know it might work for you with 9 turbo cause it actually starts to die on me around 7900

 

I always run faster at Atco then I do at E-town..And from what I have been told MIR is an even faster track..This being said from an ls1 fbody owner who runs within .x10 every time hundreds of passes..

 

i didnt know that... and i live like a 30mins away

 

Not exactly. E-town is not some magical place. In fact the track prep was almost non existent as the runs were done at 9pm and they close at 10pm. In my old car my times were fairly consistent between E town and Atco.

EVOB23 - How fast can you trap in 4th gear?
My good friend Mike1023 traps at over 120 in 4th in his evo8. And he says he has a little room to go. Also he has slightly smaller tires than stock. With stock size tires and an evo8 4th gear I should have room to trap as high as 122 or so.


Mike and I tried to run each other on Friday night but unfortunately he red lighted when we lined up next to each other. That was the last run before they closed the track so we never got to go again.

 

with my evo8 stock gearing i have trapped as high as 123 with stock turbo...you have room for even more if you wanted...

 

How high were you revving it? Also what size tires?

 

Etown isn't the fastest track around. We just have the best drivers!

Seriously though, their track prep is among the best around but there is a crosswind/headwind almost every time I run there.

Great job dudical26! I'll be there almost every weekend this year for testing.
