well tonight i finally made it to the track at 2400 miles on the X.I did 5 runs, 3 runs disapointing, but a step in a very stong direction. I will post time slips in the morning, but heres the just of it...

Run 1. 14.38@99.77 1/4
Run 2. 13.95@102.04 1/4
Run 3. 13.31@105.62 1/4
Run 4. 14.61@93.97 1/4
Run 5. 14.47@106.68 1/4

Theres only room for improvement from here on out!!!!

now you have a base line

 

Hey at least you got that 13.3 run in so you kinda no what your car can do. Sounds like you need to work on that launch or shifting. you will get the hang of it. you can only get better.

 

at least you step up for not being a DD.
I think in the first time the 13.3 sec is good. I dont think i would run that.

 

what was your 60ft?

 

60 ft was 1.83, 2.25, 2.14, 2.22, 2.27

 

That first 60ft is not to bad

 

the last 2 runs i just jumped into it on some hot runs, didnt let the clutch cool off or anything, the 4th run the damn dude lining me up distracted me by telling me to move and i missed the light sequence, thats when i hot ran it to run 5 and as i was lined up we sat there for like 5 min till they gave us sequence to go an when i went to launch, car just popped outta first so i had to play catch up, but overall im happy with cars performance

 

heres the slips

 

well the stock clutch is just as bad as dsm clutches have always been, and till i get another, i was worrying to much i think, i didnt want to hurt the car at all, its on next time!!

 

God X's are slow.

 

Think its more of a driver/clutch issue. His trap speed is almost 107mph, that's great for being on stock tune with almost no mods.

 

Compared to what? A stock 8 or 9 is not that much faster than an X in a straight line. I checked my stock slips and my 8 was not tremendously faster than my X MR in a straight line. Throw in some twisties and well....

 

good job, keep trying you will get better.

 

106+ trap with an intake and MBC, very nice! Get the driving downand you could hit 12's.
