Talking First Track Experience!

1st run
60ft = 2.006 (bogged)
1/4 et = 14.395
1/4 mph = 96.33

2nd run
60ft = 1.890
1/4 et = 14.067
1/4 mph = 97.14

3rd run | so crazy of a launch i mis-shifted second =) |
60ft = 1.833
1/4 et = 15.014 (so sad i know)
1/4 mph = 92.75

4th and final run
60ft = 1.885
1/4 et = 14.052 (best for the night)
1/4 mph = 97.37

i wish i could take my launch from my 3rd run and put it with my 4th run powershifting. oh well, it was fun as hell!

anyone know if pulling the spare and the jack will shave enough lbs to hit 13s? gotta try that next time

did you really powershift?...correct me if i'm wrong but powershifting on a turbo car should be a no-no...anyways, good job for your first time

I think that he means he shifted as quickly as he could...while still using the clutch.

Can't hurt to take out your backseat, too. And maybe the pass. seat and headliner, carpet, a/c, cruise control, abs, front crossmember....

heh ya think thats crazy ^^
people on guam have like old school mini trucks with pretty much a chopped up bed, a gutted out cab, and no front end at all. like no front fenders, no grill or bumper , no headlights. just the suspension, motor and radiator. but hey, last time i was there they were hitting 12s with laughing gas. pretty good times considering it takes like only 10k at most for the truck and all the performance parts for the motor in those trucks to hit those numbers. ya know what i mean right sykosis?

O.O.G.
Only On Guam!

Bounce it in the ballpark of 4-5500 rpm.... when last yellow light comes one, put the gas to the floor & start slipping the clutch. Once you're actually moving, and the light is green, let the clutch out a little faster, or you'll be smelling it all night (I have experience on that one! )
