Went to Etown this afternoon...
Only got 1 run in because they kicked me out....
(got kicked out cuz i had open exhaust...LOL)

Well...It's quite obvious now my exhaust was choking things up really bad...
I unbolted everything from the cat back...
and put a *dump* (so no muffler)...

Only run of the day (still running on 19" rims)...

R/T: .538 (pretty good)
60': 2.343 (horrible)
330': 6.178
1/8th: 9.285 @ 78.94 mph
1000': 11.954
1/4: 14.171 @ 101.18 mph (not bad)

The MPH shows that i should be running easy 13's....
But traction is still the problem...

NO SYNKI!! I WILL NOT PUT MY STOCK RIMS BACK ON! LOL

Sticking with the 19's until i get some slicks...
Should have slicks by the next event.

 

Good #'s Adam. too bad you got kicked out, I am waiting to see 13's

 

oh yea forgot to mention...

i also ran Brett's Maxima (AKA: Confused)...
couldnt better his time...
I ran a 14.9 @ just under 95mph...in his car...
I think with some more seat time it could go 14.8...
But it wasnt a bad run for my 1st time in the car...

 

Should have taken off Brett's exhaust

AnGe

 

why'd you get kicked out?

 

Kit.. i guess you might have read fast and didn't see this

(got kicked out cuz i had open exhaust...LOL)

 

 

I too have trouble with traction at the start. What rim and tire combination do you plan to get before the next event? Thanks...

 

took him for an Am. muscle car.... only imports today.

btw, my best run was .01 away from hitting the 8's. ARRGGGGG.


rt: .582
60': 2.311
330':6.332
1/8: 9.675
1000': 12.509
1/4: 14.909
mph: 94.43

 

Nice times!

 

I think I'll be going with either a 24.5" or 26" slick...
mounted on a 15x7 or 15x8 if i can find a pair...
most likely i'll just be going w/ a pair of cheap ($80) Konig Burner's in 15x7 cuz they're pretty light (16 lbs) and i can get them real cheap...

 

Adam, i knew that was coming. Well, since youa re at 101.18, you should be 13.9-13.8 We shall see what you can get with slicks. Hmm.. since Adam ran a 14.9 in Bretts car, does that mean it cant go faster? hehehe. j/k Brett.

BTW, good job guys.

Hey Adam, how much can you get the Burners for 16"?

 

i cant get Burners in 16"...
i beleive Konig doesnt even make them anymore...
the place im gettin them from only has 3 left in stock...
thats why im getting them so cheap...

 

that was the whole point of the drill.

 

Cant seem to break those annoying 14.9's huh?

I hope your getting use to seeing those 97-99 red/clear tail lights b/c im coming for yah Brett. Adam.. ahh forget hime, i lost him montsh ago. hehe. I will show all my auto-majik can be fast too. mwuahahaha. Maybe either your or Adam should try to drag "Cricket's" car.

Anyone know of any light rims that are still rather reasonable? Time to drop the chromies.

 

who's cricket? =)
Vic

 

Cricket's on the 21 day disabled list. Maybe u should race cricket, synk? Show em the OJ.

 

You know.. the guy that claims to have a lot of fuzzy animals but doesnt? hehe.

Vic.. go and practice some more and lets see them low 14's. Show them a auto can be fast too.

 

actually i don't think low 14's will be a problem once everything is in order.
like mr confused said..i'm on the disabled list for now =)
Vic

 

hey synki (hope i spelled it right)

im looking at the inside cover page of the newest import tuner, and in konig's ad they show a wheel called "subzero" their "ultra light weight wheel."

http://www.konigwheels.com

Ill be checkin that out, im looking for some nice slicks-wheels too.

Casey

 

what's reasonable to you Synki?

 

maxgal is going chrome!

 

hit the tirerack.

 

synk
just go for racinghart cp35's.. nice, light..and looks good
and they come in white!
Vic

 

LoL. Oh man... that was damn funny Brett.

Cricket has a booboo. Kiss it better Angie-Bah!

Yes Ange-i need to drop the chromes..as Ant says.. all show and now go. Oh wait, im still faster then him. hehe. Right Sodaboy?! j/k.

So whens the next meet then guys? Maybe Ange will show up for once and Vic can be a shuttle bus again. hehe.

 

Thanks for the help Casey. I'll def check it out. Yes you spelled it right.

 

so can i get in on this action?

 

Hmm.. i wonder how much they are.

Brett-i will def hit up the tirerack like usual.

Yes Sprnt you can join in too. hehe.

 

argh! i left before adamn got there! oh well...nice times...who else showed up...i caught up with brett a few times and saw his 14.9 run...ange i saw your car in the parking lot...etown was just dead so i bounced and headed to AC

 

etown was dead? damn.. thats the best time to run.. if i didn't have a leather appointment i would have came down for sure..

 

i was gonna run and debated for awhile but had the stereo equip in the trunk still...by 12 brett already had 5 runs in...

 

God dammit. If i knew it was THAT slow at e-town. I would have went and practiced all i wanted.

How was AC?

 

it was unbelieveable down there...i just go my pics back so ill have them up possibly tomorrow night...there were just imports everywhere...i feel bad for the old people trying to get into the city to gamble cause it just wasn't happening...

 

Synki, you need to get that Burnout pic in your sig again. No one wants to see your ugly rims.

 

well who gives a rat's *** about a 2 door rag top max anyway?!

 

remember, every 100 lbs less on the car is worth .1 seconds with Adam in the car, well, let's say Adam is about three times as big as me. hehe

 

couldn't find you later in the day.... u should have seen adam's face last time when i told him the car weighed in at 3200lbs..... with me in it. any pics from yesterday?

 

chris, thats a maxima? i thought it was a sebring convertible...bwhahahhahahahahaha HA

casey

 

Speaking of sigs...
What the hell did you do to my car in your sig?
I want to vomit.

 

Hey...my car *only* weighs 3,550 lbs with me in it.
