KCIR Track Day Kansas City, Overland Park, Olathe, Lee Summit and Surrounding Areas - Page 5

I am going to be heading back up on Friday if the weather holds up. I found my problem, it was a boost leak. The line running from the SMIM to the BoV came off. The car should be boosting good today and I am going to work on some tuning. I kinda got screwed as I have used up all of my 110oct now and will be stuck with 92oct. I might be heading up to warrensburg today to pick up some new shoes and there is a E-85 station there, if its cheap enough, I will be filling up the car and two race cans with it.

That is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard off. That geo metro had a fp3065 and Im pretty sure I never saw him in a fire suit.

No. The " black " guy in the white geo metro. His car looked stock. He always has a fast car. He is one of the " dsm " brothers. He used to have a 11 sec fwd 1g gst and his brother has a low low 11 sec awd 1g

The_EE · 05-29-2008, 07:57 AM

I dont have to worry about a fire jacket as I have a 'stock' turbo. At least its got a Mitsu compressor housing, the guys at the track wont know hehe.

I have some little issues to fix still, if I can get the car tuned today then I should be good to go. I am boosting back at 25 so some small adjustments should do it, if not then it appears my waste gate may be sticking, might be all the leaded race gas I have been running heh.

I will be looking for some good times on Friday. I put 10 gallons of E85 in the car yesterday tee hee.

Links to videos from last week. MY times might have sucked but I was consistant and within .1 in each of my time slips heh. First run was my best 60 foot, 1.9 and I have not launched the car in over 6 months hehe.

Where are you getting e85 around here.

The_EE · 05-29-2008, 08:53 AM

I went to Warrensburg yesterday to buy some shoes ( could not find a single pair of shoes in my size ) and there is a BREAK TIME off of the 13 ( maguire ) that sells it. Well, its E70 right now.

DiamondStarAwd · 05-29-2008, 09:16 AM

Thats some dedication for shoes.

The_EE · 05-29-2008, 09:27 AM

Not really, I live about 25 miles away from Warrensburg and I refuse to shop the corporate devil know as Wal Mart and thats the only place in town that I know of that sells shoes.

DiamondStarAwd · 05-29-2008, 09:32 AM

Oh. I thought you lived up in KC.

The_EE · 05-29-2008, 09:39 AM

Mo, I live in Clinton, about a hour and a half from KC

How is the ethanol working for your car? Im seriously debating about putting it in my car, since gas prices are still shooting up. I heard they are predicting $7 a gallon by then end of the year.

No way in hell it will hit $7 by the end of the year, last year they said $6 by the end of the year and where are we now? I dont trust the media to get anything correct.

I have not got to do any real pulls on it yet. Still trying to get my boost set, which will happen after I finish fixing a couple tiny oil leaks that happened over night, easy fixes just takes time. I will really know how it is doing for the car come tomorrow night at the track.

DiamondStarAwd · 05-29-2008, 06:43 PM

EE. I would of figured you to be alot faster. With a td06 20g and turning a 14.0-14.1. How many lbs 10?

Local car had same mods as you but bastard 20g and went 12.0 @ 114.

way back in the day.

Shit.... I'm on a small 16g @ 15psi and have a bad input shaft bearing and I hit a 14.1 @ 95mph. There is definitely something up with your tune. What afr's are you seeing. The E85 you are going to need to add about 30% with your fuel to keep the same AFR.

Well, car was untuned on a new motor with a whole 84 miles on it and I could not boost over 16psi, turned out my vac line for BoV popped off under the SMIM and I had a hell of a boost leak there.

I have the problem solved and am currently boosting 21 psi, as we all know, the 20g doesnt even come alive until 19psi.Things are going to be a whole lot different tomorrow. Still dont have the car tuned, just two test runs, will do a few tuning runs tomorrow before the track.

Anyone know the real PSI limit of the 20g? I was told it was about 22-24psi

All makes sense now.

Lets see some 11's

The_EE · 05-29-2008, 07:38 PM

Thats what I am shooting for. MY best run was a 12.6 @ 113.23 with a blown turbo, tired clutch and I broke a axle in second gear, the speeds, even with no power in 2nd gear were good for very low 12's high 11's. I just hope I dont get kicked for no fire jacket when it comes to hitting 11's.
