116.8mph

4th gen SE 5speed
85degrees, 85% humidity
Full interior(leather), stock 15s, stock tires
No exhaust

New best 1/8th mile trap (NOT time):
8.605
92.084mph

New best 1/4 mile trap (NOT time):
13.041
116.811

Funniest time of the day:
13.2 @ 102mph

Yes so traction is a little/lot of an issue. I have slicks and wheels on order now, so that should be fixed in a couple weeks.

It is getting better. I had just installed all my MEVI goodies the night before, but the rpm switch would not kick it on, so NO functioning MEVI on those runs either..

I will be back out in a few weeks or a month, maybe when it cools off a little, today was unbearable. So more/better times to come!

Oh, and the most fun race of the day.. against an EVO8. He laughed at me at the line. That will teach him when I trapped 19-20mph faster on top of beating him across the line. AWD helped him, until about mid 2nd gear. haha

yes, such as ?
that is the 13.2 @ 102mph, but check out the 92mph 1/8 trap.

slickrick, yes it is a very serious thread.

y2kse, the reason you see a huge dif in my and mardigras' times is that i am on stock wheels and tires... With a working MEVI on my car, and better temp/humidity, I dont see any reason I can't pull of some nice times to accompany even better trap speeds once My slicks arrive.

maxspeed, hahah husshhh you're too good!
