First trip to the strip

rfcsoulja · October 16th, 2011, 01:29 AM

Here are the numbers:
r/t .885
60' 2.254
330 5.960
1/8 8.931
mph 84.28
1000 11.424
1/4 13.546
mph 100.36

This was on street tires leaving on idle (I tried launching at 2000rpms only to spin through 1st and 2nd). I also didn't realize I needed to push it past the time boards, to I put it in neutral and coasted about 40 30 yard away from the actual finish. Most fun I've had in a long time. Its addicting.

very nice...any vids of the runs?

rfcsoulja · October 16th, 2011, 01:33 AM

Not the first pass. I have a video of me spinning through 1st and 2nd on my second pass though. . .

2000stallion · October 16th, 2011, 02:53 AM

Nice, what are you making with the procharger? I bet some slicks and a stall would do wonders

Edit: just saw on your youtube video that your a manual

SlowSix · October 16th, 2011, 02:56 PM

Slicks would definitely help you get that sixty foot down.

rfcsoulja · October 16th, 2011, 09:26 PM

My best mph was this run

r/t .716
60' 2.296
330 6.013
1/8 9.196
mph 80.37
1000 11.782
1/4 13.918
mph 106.64

Brandon, with 106 mph, that thing should be real close to 12s. Next time you go, hollar at me, and I'll bring my slicks up. Can't hurt to give them a try....... Unless something breaks

lol

I'll give you a call. . .I also may need a tow after everything behind my engine breaks. . .But then its upgrade time so I wont sweat it.

69fastback · October 16th, 2011, 10:31 PM

That's ok. I've got a trailer too

rfcsoulja · October 17th, 2011, 02:42 AM

have you thought about adding anything to help get those 60 foots down? great vid btw

69fastback · October 17th, 2011, 08:19 AM

First trip to the track. The best thing to add to get the 60' down, is practice.

LilRoush · October 17th, 2011, 08:39 AM

^^ Words of wisdom. Too many people try to modify the car before they know how to drive it.

rfcsoulja · October 17th, 2011, 01:13 PM

I definitely need more time behind the wheel. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and will definitely be spending much more time at the track.

zinc-vert02 · October 17th, 2011, 01:35 PM

it took me tons of passes this year to get my car to hook good, now i can worrie about the 1/4 mile time

good times by the way

siver rhyno · October 18th, 2011, 10:10 PM

a set of drag radials would go along way i ran 12.91@105.5 1.83 60ft...u have the power now get the traction

rfcsoulja · October 18th, 2011, 11:43 PM

Yeah, I'll be buying drag radials this up comming month. I'm trying to decide if I want to buy some for my stock 15x6 (small as hell) rims, or buy a set of bigger rims for bigger radials. The only thing making me hesitant, is like the rims as they are pretty light.

Blackbird1084 · October 19th, 2011, 11:31 AM

You would have to buy a very small radial since the rim size is so narrow. If they were a 15x7-8 you could find a good radial easy. If you can come up with an extra set of rims buy some slicks instead as they work much better with a standard.

I'd be worried about the 7.5" rear end snapping with drag radials. It'll go before the motor does...

Wow. What kind of #'s are you putting to the wheels?
