After going to Irwindale today, I'm sure I'll be in the low-low 14s.

Last time I went to LACR in February my best 1/8th time was 9.551..

the only thing I've added since then was a JWT clutch/flywheel and it has helped me quite a bit.

 

i am dead tired!!

sooooo, when's the next time we're rolling again!? I'm itching to jump in the 8s! hahaha

 

Good runs people...

The wait was horrible; too many cars and accidents. Only got 3 runs.

I was so not used to the track. By the time you basically line up, you have to be ready to gun it.

I only got 1 decent run. It was 9.5 with a weak 2.3 60ft.

I feel more confident about Cal Speedway after these runs though. I just hope they give you more time to launch. Irwindale op's are too in a hurry to get everything moving

.

 

Once the other car lights up the 2 staging lights the lights go once you light up yours.

The car you were racing didn't give you time to stage.

 

u dont have to go when the light goes green, u can launch whenever u want, it wont mess up ur time, just ur reaction time, which no one gives a shyt about.

 

i relaly wanted to break 7's. best time we got was 8.00 and we missed 4th damn!!!!!!!!!!

best time i got with my g when i had just intake exhaust was 9.1

CONGRATS WALLY ON 9.0

 

True... I should have done that!!!

.

 

what do u have on ur car?

 

I think he is talking about his turbo civic that ran the 8.0.

 

^o ok.

 

Nice meeting everyone last night! Thanks for posting the pics Peter - don’t be a stranger (lurker )... My best was 9.201 (2.190, 60'), coincidentally this was against Wally during his best 9.090 (2.132, 60') - I had another 9.214 with 2.191 60'... the other two runs were ****. Too many track issue and cars falling apart, spewing oil - trying to cut off Wally (which cause a HUGE delay in my run right after him, it's a longer story than this).

All in all it was a good time, just damn long waits. I guess it prepares us for CA Speed which apparently will be even LONGER wait!

I left around 9:20ish... was in line for a final run but someone lost their transmission on the track - I had an early meeting this morning so I got out of line and left... Wally did you end up running that last one?

 

sounds as troublesome as it was fun.. hehe..

i got off work at 9..
wasnt worth driving 30 minutes to get there and have 30 minutes to race haha..

 

yeah - you would have got there during the tranny clean up off the track... it was fun though.

 

yea, I ended up running a lil after you had left. I ended up missing second gear though and ended up with a 9.7ish

good times everyone!

 

looks like I'm your good luck charm... The only good run you had was against me right?... That was a smoking launch - All I saw was black coupe *** for the start to finish LOL
