Went to the Track Last Night

[CanaryGT]

So I was in Tuscon visiting my friend and we decided to go to the Test and Tune they were holding. Needles to say the track conditions were horrible. The DA was above 6000ft. My best time was a 14.1.... I wanted to cry a little. 2.0 60ft time with my Nitto NT05's and I trapped 103. Got like 15+ runs in tho. All in all it was fun... I put a beating on some GT500's... It was cool.

haha nice I love 5.0 14 second runs


Get some slips up and ill put you on the et list.

 

[CanaryGT]

I dont wanna talk about it. I was pissed. I dont wanna go and say that corrected blah blah blah low 13's blah blah blah. I know the DA was shit so that accounts for something but I rather just run my numbers...

Noo, its wherever you run PPL who tell their "corrected" numbers are ricers/clowns. Just say what you ran if you have DA air spec's thats fine but dont say "corrected" numbers. It is what it is, everyone else had to run in the same conditions. Hell in the spring our track is mine shafted and is wayyyy below sea level haha

Shouldnt I be able to run a low 13 at least?

I went 12.9 @ 104mph but that will require a much better 60'. Mine was 1.63

 

[CanaryGT]

Thats a pretty good 60'. What tires are you running tho. Im on street tires atm.

 

[97 king cobra]

street tires are useless. I run 26/8.5 mt slicks.

 

[CanaryGT]

I agree. I mean, I was happy to cut a 2.0 on street tires but I cant seem to get much better.

 

[97 king cobra]

And you wont. 1.9 is about the best you can do.

 

[CanaryGT]

Yeah, figured as much.

 

[NotQuik]

dr's or slicks are your friend if you want to hook!

 

[Rice_slayer]

I'm going to run front coilovers, strange shocks in the back in eibach drag springs and MT 26x8.5 slicks next year, I'm redoing my suspension this winter. My goal is mid 13s, but I don't want to launch above 3.5k as I still daily drive the car and I am still running the stock axles and diffy.

 

[CanaryGT]

There is no reason why I shouldnt run a mid to low 13's on street tires as it stands.

 

[Rice_slayer]

Real times are made with slicks/drag radials, so I wouldn't get too wrapped up in it . I cut a [email protected] spinning off the line and into 2nd gear, so you actually did pretty darn good considering our mods are very similar, minus suspension of course. Get some slicks, launch that baby and enjoy the results .

 

[CanaryGT]

Yeah, I was just considering DA. Arnt you at a very high alt as well?

 

[Rice_slayer]

I'm 1500feet above sea level, dunno if that's a high alt. or not
