Had a fun night although the times were disappointing.


1. 05 Coupe
2. 6spd
3. Street Tires
4. Lubbock Drag Way
5. Temp: 81 F; Pressure: 30.00 inHg ; Dew Point: 59 F; Altitude: 3163 ft; Humidity: 47%

The track was repaired poorly so they closed off half of it and only ran 1/8th mile.

My goal was to run 9.3-9.5. Well let me say that I missed that by a LONG SHOT!

60: 2.423
330:6.548
1/8: 9.920
MPH: 73.08

Was running basically head to head with this '08 Mustang GT with an intake all night long. It's too bad the 1/4 wasn't open so I could make a decent comparison but oh well. The track should be fixed in a few weeks so I'll go back for a test and tune then.

Sad times but still had a "good time" nevertheless.

Thought I'd share.

EDIT: my mistake the altitude was 3163 not 3281. corrected now.

 

oh yeah and DA is calculated at 5419 according to http://wahiduddin.net/calc/calc_da.htm

EDIT: changed DA with new more updated altitude.

 

With the DA's at 5419, those times are respectable. Especially since you can still shave off .2-.3 off of your 60 ft with more practice and/or better track prep.

I wouldn't have any high expectations running at those conditions.

.

 

my plan is to revisit this track once the entire thing is opened up. I greatly wanted to land a 60' of 2.2-2.3 but after a few runs I realized that quickly wasn't going to be a reality and as of right now I'm unsure as to why. My best 60' was a 2.399.

Nevertheless I don't think that a 1/4 mile time of 13.9x is going to be plausible at this track under these conditions with the setup I've got.

 

Sounds like California track conditions.

 

work on launching... you should be well below a 2.0 60 foot

 

On street tires? I don't think so.

How do ya reckon that?
