I've done it a few times, my best being 14.6. I toasted the factory clutch in the process though. My other times were high 14s, like 14.99 and 14.8 and that was with the stock SE suspension. I may run my car tonight, but I've never raced my car with the new suspension so am wondering how much a stiff suspension helps. I'd imagine it would help especially on the launch of a FWD car.

 

Uh.....yeah. I think I've only hit a 15.0 and 15.1 twice in the ownership of my car, both times involved a misshift. Ofcourse my car is a 2002, so that means something too. I typically run 14.3s to 14.4s, but my best is in my sig on an ideal day.

 

honestly my times have become worse since I got my suspension (but I doubt its related to that)

I got constant 14s when I was stock (except for a cat-back, but I don't think that did anything by itself)

 

I did. Never seemed to hurt my times.

 

I never went to the track when my suspension was stock, but I have no doubt that I could have run consistent 14s without my suspension.

 

I was never able to hit consistent low 15s on the stock suspension. Dont get me wrong I did it here and there but never all the time. After the new suspension things changed though. I think one of the reasons is because I race with full stereo in the trunk. That extra 70 pounds or so, multiplied because its the lever/seesaw effect takes that much weight off the front wheels so my 60 foots were always bad. After the stiff suspension, less wheel transfer which means more power was planted to the front wheels so I was running more consistent times last time. When I go again this friday I will have my Y pipe back (hopefully) and then I'll really see what happens.
