Finally got to the Track

[Kyle04]

So last night I made it out to the track for my first time. Was able to make 3 passes before they closed down.

I'll get the timeslips uploaded later but my times in order were(might be off by a hundredth or so):

E/T - 13.23 (Lauched at 1500rps in D with passanger in the car and tire pressure at 40 all around)
Trap - 106.08
60ft - 2.03

E/T - 12.87 (Launched at 2200-2300 in D by myself and droped all tires to 32psi)
Trap - 107.22
60ft - 1.911

E/T - 12.94 (Launched at 2k in D by myself and 32psi)
Trap - 107.45
60ft - 1.901

All runs were with around 1/4 tank of gas and spare tire removed. I am glad to have broken into the 12's with the first run being a fluke that i wasn't paying attention to the tech and realized i launched at 1500 after the run.

As for the DA I heard from more then a few guys mentioning around the 1900-2000 range. For some reason when i punched the number in to dragtimes website and a mobile app i downloaded i was getting 1450ish. So who knows. All in all i had a great time for my first time ever running at a track.

Not to sure what i could have done for letter times other then maybe dropping the tire pressure more and launching a little higher.

Nice runs! It is fun and can be quite addictive. What mods do you have on the car?

 

[Kyle04]

Just a Livernois 3 bar tune and 160 tstat.

Where else can you spend $700 and make your 14 second, 4400lb car run 12's!?!

That is awesome @Kyle04 thanks for sharing!!!!

Those are some killer times for a rookie in non-optimal conditions! I see a mid 1 run in your future my friend!

Nice times! Are you 10-12 or 13+?

It's a 2014.

There was a stock 2011 SHO there that i got to catch his first which was a 15.2 i believe(he was having problems of some sort i guess). He ran again with a 14.2 and i ended up talking to him, he ran 13.9 last week. So at least 1.1 seconds faster then a stock SHO with just the tune.
