took the G to the track
took the G to the track
So went to the track tonight with the G....nothing really good but learned a few things.
Khumo ECSTA MX tires are junk at the drag strip.
On pump I'd spin all through first and second, on race gas I'd spin 1st 2nd, and 3rd...
So on race I basically spun all the way through the 1/8 (which is represeted by not being
any faster to the 1/8 on race than pump)
So I absolutely have to have a tire on this car now for the track, that is obvious.
I also was not launching the car at all (hence the horrendous 60's)
Here are the times from the slips (I'll upload images later)
--------- Run 1----Run2---- Run3---- Run4---- Run5---- Run6---- Run7
60'------2.663----2.517----2.541------------- 2.571----2.502----2.477
330------6.449----6.283----6.355------------6.409----6.586----6.322
1/8------9.220----9.060----9.149-------------9.149----9.816---9.947
mph----- 89.14----90.02----89.63-------------92.11----85.92---69.56
1000-----11.527---11.379---11.466-----------11.359---12.218--12.732
1/4------13.470---13.311---13.384------------13.225--14.159---14.751
mph-----115.85---115.39---115.72---125------122.16--114.41---116.24
Run's 1-3 were on pump gas.
Run's 4-7 were on race gas (25psi of boost)
Run 4 they didn't have a slip for but I was told it trapped 125mph (I have no idea about it though)
Run 6 and 7 the tires were spinning so bad in 2nd that I missed 3rd...ugh
Run 7 is the most intriguing though. Does anyone see why?????
I missed third and accidentally threw it into 5th (ugh), so then I just dropped it down to
4th gear (at bout 63mph) and finished the pull in 4th touching rev limiter at the traps....
Car shows promise with that run, damn thing picked up 47mph in the second 1/8th lol.
Gonna try to get some drag radials before the season is out but not sure if I'll have them in time.
