Finally our local track has opened. Car is not fully tuned yet and still needs some tweaking. Opening day rules are strict and <7.50 requires a cage on this day so I quit after 7.47 even though the car had a lot left in it. I wore a helmet for the first time today haha

Car needs drag radials but the drivetrain won't last (stock except exedy twin). Any tips on dampner settings for the best traction (if this applies to awd) would be great

(poor camera work but you get the idea)

I didn't realize that mustang had hoosiers on it or I wouldn't have been asleep at the light . Got me by .1 on the light and had a 1.5x 60'. Caught him around 550ft.

1.7286 60'
4.8838 330'
7.0058 594'
7.4749 1/8
95.92 mph

I had a nice trap on the run before this one but I had to back out of first gear a little. Cursed with 7.5's all last year best being 7.503 so I consider anything over 7.4999 crappy

1.8350 60'
4.9699 330'
7.0830 594'
7.5488 1/8
96.91 mph! (had a nice cool down after a truck flipped about 9 times down the track)

That's all for now... I'm tired as hell. I gained 2-3mph and the car is not "tweaked" like my 20G-9 was last year so I'm happy so far

 

Looking good Andy!

You guys run KVD every friday nite? I am hoping to come down one weekend.

SQ

 

Nice video ! and your car also looks realy good too

 

nice run!

 

nice dude!

 

I cant wait till i get some track times!!!

 

Nice run...

Are you running meth or race gas?

A good friend of mine ran a 7.2 with a 20g but had 1.63 60ft.

 

Juschil, great 1/8 times!!! What do you think youd trap at? Also, do you have a detail of your setup?

 

What psi plz???

 

No we normally run on Thursday nights. Rules are too strict on any other night

I'm running alky and 26.5-27psi. Full mod list here: http://www.justchil.net/evo_mods.html

Thanks for all the kind words! I'll be way faster once the tranny is rebuilt and I can shift fast once again

 

I only wish i could cut 60's that fast. lol, good job i know there room for improvement but still nice work. I think i couldnt get any good 60ft times because my stock clutch hated me.

 

I can't cut good 60's anymore lol. The best I did was 1.72. I had no problem with less power getting low 1.6x's even on snow tires.. but ever since the alky I've had trouble. I'm running Falken RT-615's that have a ultra stiff sidewall so I'm sure that doesnt help.

Are there a lot of Evo's in your area? I live in Charleston, SC now but used to live in Huntington, WV. Is there a bunch of street racing that goes on? I might actually be moving back because of work.

 

All this wv talk. My ex girlfreind goes to marshall university. Ive been up there a few times and never once saw a car that remotley caught my attention. Maybe its because i was hating having her in the car.
Questions like-
Her: Does this dress make me look fat?

and without even knowing she asked a question.......

Me: Ah ha, yeah. (knew better but i was in zoned out)

That why shes a ex, lol.

 

i might have to come your way one night.
