Alright everyone, I just stumbled over a new feature which will be very useful to this site as we have an already bombarded Timeslip Forum as it is. All you need to do is go to your User CP, select Edit Vehicle Profile, enter in the information ,and it will then be displayed in the Timeslips Database.

http://forums.maxima.org/timeslips.php

Anyone caught screwing around will be temporarily banned and a loss to this feature permanently.

 

sweet!!!!!!

 

Very nice feature and a good way to see how you rank compared to other orgers. I'm number 3 at the moment that wont last long though.

 

I'm #1!!! HAHA Won't last long!

We have a "Single Digit Club" too! Gotta love that!

 

Very cool feature, I'm in.

 

Hmmmm, 9 sec 1/4 coming right up!

 

Sweetness...

 

its about time

 

wackkk im the only nitrous dude in there lol

 

Nice.. Too bad it will be awhile till I can make it up there

 

Wow, the fastest NA 3.0L... how sad

 

the fastest 3.0 is not up there. but what did you expect the fastest 3.0 n/a time to be?

 

I wish it allowed you to put more than one time in, my car has been through many combinations.

 

13.00 is the fastest 3L that I know of. Dandymax will post his time very soon I'm sure.

I'm the fastest 3L NA Auto. But I have a long ways to go before I can do 13 flat all motor. That will never happen.

Luke, is it possible that you can add a couple headings to the main timeslips screen? If you can, I wish it would show "Engine Type and Displacement" and "Tranny Type" on the main screen.

To free up space, I wouldn't mind if you got rid of the 1/8 mile ET and mph and maybe the WHP from the main screen. It will still be there in the details.

But I doubt that you can enter more than one car unless this feature has a 'garage' like I've seen on other forums. In this garage, you can add several cars and keep track of your mods and other crap. It never caught on with that particular forum, but maybe it could allow you to add several timelips for each of the combination that 96sleeper has gone through.

 

Im going to go through everyones timeslips in the timeslip forum and update their vehicle profiles..

 

I never realized how good my 60' was until now.

 

just leave it the way it is i like to compare times, details are right there if people need to see more.i think its setup perfect

 

No he was referring to hacking into everyone's profile to add in the their timeslip that they've posted years ago in the timeslip moderated forum. I think it's a good idea if he has the time. Or he could give every moderator an assignment. Like 3rd gen moderators can sort through the times in that HUGE 3rd gen 1/4 mile times sticky on the 3rd gen forum.

 

I didnt even realize there was a 3rd gen timeslip section..

 

perfect like it is. i like the 1/8th's, & whp for those who have dyno numbers, and checking out vehicle weight on the details page is cool. seems like some of us compete in that too. Dang, Jime is floating on air ! LOL !

this rocks, this rolls... ! we have been needing this for ages.

aaron's 3rd gen all motor et is amazing !

will be interesting to see how long it takes before we have 2-3 pages of slips.

thanks for all the work and time it took to get this up !

 

what stats do i need to figure out density altitude ? is there a calculator online or what ? that always has me stumped

 

The best and simplest calculator that I know of can be found at:

http://wahiduddin.net/calc/calc_da_rh.htm

It wouldn't hurt to permanently post this in the timeslip section so others can calculate DA.

Me and Chris are next to each other on the timeslip rankings. I bet it makes you more frustrated to see me one notch above ya! lol jk

gtr, I'd be more than happy to help you copy and move over LEGIT 1/4 mile times from the 3rd gen section. Most of them I see in the 3rd gen 1/4 mile section are for real, but don't have proof. Then there's one guy that did 12.6 in his 3rd gen turbo, but many people doubt him. He wouldn't show us a full timeslip either.

 

on that link you have there, what is Altimeter Setting ? i dont have that info i betcha ? and yeah i got to at least match your 13.7 this season

 

That's barometric pressure. Pilots (like this guy) set their altimeters to the barometric pressure released from their local airport everytime before they take off. That's why he called it that and not barometric pressure.

You can find your pressure by looking up the date, time and location of when you raced in the almanac section here:

http://www.wunderground.com/

It even gives you the elevation of the city you search for.

 

ok, i see, i have all that on my timeslip, calculating now. dang, mine doesnt look to darn good compared to everyone elses. 2394' boo !

edit: neal where did your killer post go, cant remember if lower is better or higher ? i think it was lower. and aaron what is up with yours ?

 

2394 feet above sea level sucks for desity altitude.

The lower the DA, the better. It's just like REAL elevation. The closer you are to sea level, the more dense the air is, which means more oxygen molecules per square inch, which means that the motor will make more HP.

My DA is 601 feet BELOW sea level. Back in the day when I first cracked into the 14s, I remember having something like -1500' DA.

 

I meant to post it as a new thread to help people out when searching and to make it easier to find so I deleted it out of this thread and made a new one.

 

ok iam confused now i just put the ele of the track?

 

Elevation and Density Altitude are two completely different things.

I can run a LOUSY time at a track at sea level if the DA is terrible (ie high temps, high hum and low baro).

But I can run spectacular times at a track at 1500 feet above sea level if it has good DA (ie 35 degrees, 30% hum, and 30.5 baro)

 

only one year 2k ^ so far

:O

 

wow my density altitude is 2763 on my best run

 

Is it ok that I put a video link of the actual run in the timeslip box?

 

Hmm ok I put my time up there but where's the link to the database other than from this thread or from your profile page? I didn't see how to get to it...

Did I miss something obvious?

 

Top Navbar, says Timeslip..

 

FIGured I missed something obvious. lol.

Thanks.

 

should non-maxima vehicles be allowed to submit ? thoughts and comments ?

 

Absolutely not ^^^

There is nothing more annoying than trying to sift through a timeslip database for a particular type of car and having a bunch of other crap show up that you aren't looking for. There are a million other timeslip databases on the internet, this one is for us and us alone. My strong opinion.

 

I agree, Maximas only..

 

I agree as well, it will be THE resource for times/mods/weights.

 

now i just need to get to a track so i can get an actual slip is all i know is im running around 90mph give or take a little in the 1/4
