Just got back from the strip

Well here's the times.

This is all on the same ticket.

Reac. .631
60ft. 2.28
1/8 9.76
1/8mph 79.13
1/4 et 14.82
1/4 mph 98.32

I thought that was a pretty high trap speed. All I have is a cobbled exhaust, y-pipe, and a cai.

cya for now

Wow, those are some good numbers. Where did you go, if you don't mind me asking?

5-spd I am assuming? That is a pretty high trap speed....

the trap speed seems high for that E.T.. but good run with that speed and that 60' time did u misshift or something cause thats a good time for the 60' as well.

I went to lapeer dragway in michigan. No mis-shifting. I have no parking brake right now, so I couldn't really do a good burnout to get the tires nice and sticky. So, id just roll up to the line and try the best for traction.

I was so ****ed, I red-lighted twice with a .499, and a .498. So damn close to a perfect light. I was really suprised at the trap numbers also.

That is an incredibly high trap speed for a 2k/2k1 especially your 8th mile mph.

Did you shift at redline or earlier? Did you shift to 4th?

Shifting right at redline, and i am almost hitting the rev limiter at the end of third going through the traps. We did have some good tail wind that day. Not sure if this helped the trap speed that much.
