first time ever at the track...!!!!!
 
well my lil brother thought it would be a good idea to go see what the car does at the track... (since we street race a lot)... so we go our things together and went out to open night at englishtown... which after yesterday is like disney world to us lmao... so we park look around... see 3 other evo's pull in... people started getting readfor the races... slicks big body car's... blah blah...

so it's MY turn lol... i get stuck racing a tow truck... lol... im like is he going to tow someone... o wait he has number's on his windows!!!!!!!!!!!!

light's go... here's the times

R/T .369
60' 1.815
330 5.169
1/8 7.979
mph 88.35
1000 10.410
1/4 12.456
MPH 108.28

my mod's... hks intake... dc downpipe...hks hi power exhuast... turbo xs boost controller... and finally TUNED BY 4WS... thanks again man... ill get the log's to you...

that was my best of the night... other 2 times i ran a 12.9 i bogged the start... then a 12.6.... but overall i was happy...
i was trying to get the amn light sequence in order... so ill be back out next week again...
only sucky part was my friend didnt give me his damn helmet so i had to buy one... ish cost 125!!!!!!!!!!!! i was like DAMN IT... but the lady behind the counter was cute... lmao...

Still on the stock clutch? Decent time for your trap speed. Lower the 60' to a 1.7x and you could pull a better time.

izabran Aug 16, 2007 10:33 AM

nah act hdss... yea im trying to get the time down... i was just a lil nervous... i didnt want to embarass my car haha... then when i saw the other 3 evo's run 13.6 was the fastest i was like ok i gotta be doing something good... i still need to get teh tune correted... so i whould have new time's next week hopefully...

those are good times, especially for your first time at a 'real' track. Thats where you should be racing at, not on the street.

sharkm87 Aug 17, 2007 04:51 AM

thats a good time for first track like ^^ said...way better than i ever had, i haven't been to the track yet since my tune and mods though.....what shiftin technique did you use?? straight power shiftin 1 - 4? or you let off completely, or minimal.

izabran Aug 17, 2007 06:54 AM

let of completely... but i plan on power shifting next time around... and yeah i know about the street racing thing... thanks guys for all the positive feedback....

good job

izabran Aug 17, 2007 02:24 PM

i got a question how much does the reaction time affect your overall time...????
because my second run was a 12.6 wif a109.35 trap

mcwop23 Aug 17, 2007 02:24 PM

you can sit there for a minute, it won't affect your ET

izabran Aug 17, 2007 02:26 PM

oooo cool... so why was my other time slower when i had a higher speed????

madmax4499 Aug 17, 2007 02:29 PM

very nice, 60' time dramaticly affect your et.

izabran Aug 17, 2007 02:30 PM

o ok... so how do i get it down... i mean my launch is pretty good... it's a 9 MR... with spare tire and everything in it... had about 1/2 tank of gas 93 oct.... i'll up load the video tonight...

madmax4499 Aug 17, 2007 02:32 PM

you may have shifted at a higher rpm? mph is usally a good indicator of hp.

izabran Aug 17, 2007 02:39 PM

so shift at a lower rpm... if i lower the rpm ill be into 5th gear by the the time the race is done... lol... dat's not a problem is it?????

izabran Aug 17, 2007 02:55 PM

here's the video... my little brother was taping... lol...
