Sorry but that 14.2 with stock tires and intake + headers sounds like bullshit to me. Anybody see that run with their own eyes? Anybody seen the slip or any of the other info?
60' ?
1/8 mile?

If it's the truth then I'm mistaken and apologize for calling you out but damn that's hard to stomach a 14.2 in an auto with just those two performance mods. Also, a 14.2 @ 98?

civic4982

oh I forgot to add the flag hehe

bullaculla

thats really getting to you huh.

mattg

NOVAwhiteTypeS

well my car that had i/h/e with shitty ass bald tires was running neck and neck w/ a stock 6 speed so lets wait for his slips.

mattg

i believe him.

it's possible w/ the right conditions.

I am RobG

i was gonna call him out, but i didn't feel like puttin in the effort, and 14.2 in our car should be at least 99.5+mph...

beerknurd

I did a 14.544 @98 mph. BTW, that's on stock tires with just a home grown intake.

His time could very well be legit.

TypeSKid

I think it would be possible without stock tires. NOt sure on stock rubber tho.

Post some slips and shut'em up darrin. :P

darrinb

no i fuckin made it up, imma go get it scanned right now, i'll be back soon

some one get ready to host it,

sorry for not gettin it sacnned i'm just lazy man, i gotta go to kinkos i aint got a scanner or digi cam

I am RobG

instead of gettin all defensive and personal, just scan and shut everyone up

civic4982

I was expecting more of an outroar from this thread hehe...

i am robG: yeah, I kinda thought a 14.2 would require a higher MPH with our cars too.

still, if darrinb has got the papers to back it up then props to him...

civic4982

o yeah, I have also seen tracks erroring before. what other times were you running that day/night?

darrinb

i an 14.3 like 5 times that day

civic4982

e-mail it to me and I'll post it for you.

pic coming in car talk asap

mattg

this is not true. my 14.16 run was a 99.11 trap.

the last time i was at the track, i was basically in the 14.30's the whole time, but traps were fluxuating from 96-99mph depending on the launch, shift points, and how many times i hit the rev limiter. :o

it's not as cut and dry as you think Rob, each run is different.


ps- do i need to post my slip now?

SLY1TYPES

hey mattg what mods do you have and is it stick or auto?

typeR

better 60's will result in lower traps...

allmotor_2000

You guys need to stop picking on people... this is stupid!

darrinb

some peeps are just pissed allmotor,

SiGGy

I actually managed sa 14.19 in the spring here. So a 14.2 is possible (45-50 degrees out)

(hope I don't have to digup my timeslip, because I wont, nor do i have any clue where it is)

mattg

auto. at the time i had aem cai, ct headers and mufflers, ur pulleys, h&r race springs w/ konis, stock wheels w/ 235/40 kumho 712's.

darrinb

what type of cl-s u got? mods?

SiGGy

01 CLS /w navi
No spare in trunk, no jack, removed sub box/amps
Gate shifting
AEM CAI
CT headers
Sumitomo tires /w tire pressure set low in front, high rear

It was perfect out for the run. I haven't been able to repeat it, some 14.2 runs, but not another 14.1 again . But... it's my personal best. I'll have to wait until the temp. drops to try again (97 degress today, and 70%+ humidity). However this is my 3rd tranny, and it definetly shifts different than the previous two. The 14.19 run was on my second tranny.

Nice runs b.t.w This car is a bit tricky to get off the line right. But once you get it down it goes good.
