JUST missed 12's

[xcelr8n]

Just got back from the track, was a scorcher outside temps outside were in the low 90's, Im sure track temp was a lil higher, was damn humid to...
Evo3 @20psi, fmic, maft, 650s, 190lph, act2100...
Best of 13.03 @103mph..
I ran 25-30 times, and have 22 slips between 13.0-13.2, all of which with traps above 102 mph, so I was consistent.
Launching with 5500rpm stutterbox managed nothing but 1.75 60' all day long, give or take a hundreth.

Danm that hot weather really kills the MPH.

Hot weather killed ya. You'll do better with some cooler weather. Thats good that you ran consistently though and thats a good 60 foot time. You'll be in the 12s for sure next time.

We got rained out in the last hour right after the best run I made, I raced back to do another but I was too late...
This car is an absolute blast to launch now... it went sideways every single time

That seems like alot of runs for one evening anyways haha. Good luck next time.

There were about 10 1gs, and only one exploded, so 10% thats not to bad..
my buddies sorta exploded, but we fixed it, so 15%

Im thinking this pig needs to loose a lil weight to..

I bet your clutch loves you. Nice times.

Even more so with the 5500 rpm stutterbox leaving the line with 10-12pounds of boost.

I had no idea it got that hot over in Canada ! That 13 flat seems a little slow for your modifications, were you on race gas at all ?

That slip should be high 12s although the 103mph trap is low for a B16G at 20psi.

Nigel, your neglected your...

1. Pre-turbo exhaust leaks.
2. Unknown turbo boost leaks.
3. Tuning finely.
4. A good driver. !

Next time you'll hit the 12s.

Great time! I just ran a 13.0 tonite on my 14b! Stock injectors/cams/nothing to tune with etc! It was my first time ever racing at a track nice time, You're right, It is REALLY fun , Especially for someone like me that never had done it before

Yes, the 13.0 slip has a low trap at only 103, all the other low 13 passes are closer to 105 mph FWIW..
I was using pump Gas, probably 92octane.

Your 60' is pretty good. my best 60' was a 1.813 with shitty tires and stock worn out suspension. But in that run i was able to hit a 12.97 at only 101.88 mph. . That was without lifting to shift into third and fourth. Next time try to leave the gas to the floor when shifting.
