33k later, and 100 drag strip launches, daily driver and my xcase is still good. its all how you do. I don't side step, i just come up hard on it

nice job though

some asked above if the high 7 guys are on pump or race. i was on pump
Yeah....I was pulling 1.8's and running 82mph and only running 8.5's. I was still on the stock clutch at the time. Seems you should be trapping a little faster than that.

I was the one that asked about 7's with pump gas. I'm a pump gas kind of guy and that is all I run. What do you have done to run in the 7's if you don't mind me asking?

At the time I had AEM intake, cat back, fuel pump, boost controller and dynoflash.

Damn...I have HKS dp, HKS cat back, test pipe, walbro, ebc, 264's, and a custom DynoFLash. That makes me wonder what my car is really capable of now. I also have a Exedy twin disk now. I the stocker last time I was at the track.

I was very happy to run an 8.01 @ 88.61 in temps that reached 85 degrees. This was on race gas. 8.04 @ 87.6, 8.06 @ 87.1 and 8.08 @ 87.6... I really wanted a 7s pass!

Man... so damn close Isn't that frustrating, when you're 1/100th of a second off??? Like one microscopic slip of the clutch or shift and you're there

What kind of power you think your car is making on race gas? Seems like my car is very close to 7's since I have cams and a clutch. Wonder if this is possible on good ol' 93?

Actually, 2/100ths off But yeah, frustrating! I was more than happy though, this track always netted me 2-3 1/10ths slower in my 3000gt and the best the EVO had done (on a 50 degree day, but minus catback and injectors) was 8.11 @ 83.14 en route to a 12.70 @ 106.82. When I pulled the first 8.04 @ 87.6 I almost crapped my pants and knew that I'd hit a 7 that day, but oh well...

Btw - I also prefer to turn the tires over rather than slip the clutch. The catch is that you have to ENSURE that you turn the tires over. Best 60' in my 3000 was a hard enough launch that the ***-end stepped out. 122k miles and never had a transfer case problem even with 275s. I've got handfulls of 1.7s in the EVO including a 1.74 spinning every time.

I've seen a signature stating 298 at the wheels and a 107mph 1/4 mile pass so I'd say I'm close to that number having run 107.12. At 88.6 through the 1/8th and gaining the same in the 2nd half I'd be at 111.7.

8.321 @84.94 mph.

ran faster when I was spiking to 24psi and tapering to 20 psi before, just for the 1/8 mile, then i would slow down dramatically on the 3rd and 4th gear getting slower 1/4 time for some odd reason.

I think I ran like 7.9, at 88mph before I got my mbc and the clutch.

I got better 1/4 after the act clutch and mbc though... which makes me think just now, maybe it'll be better for me to take the mbc out...

maybe it's the clutch that's helping with the 1/4 mile time, not mbc...

man your so close. Your traps indicate you should be high 7s. I would have to say its in your launch. 1.74 isn't bad. But when you pull a 1.66 or better you know you got it. That will be a 7 sec run right there. You are killing me in traps by almost 3mph, but i have .0855 on you in the 60'. what clutch are you running, stock? If so, those are really good 60s for a stocker.
