DIdn't do it at the track
Wow, i went to the track today. It was suppose to be a good day, but it was 85-90 all day. at night it was about78-80 degrees, but it was a nice soft breeze, but humid. i didn't run my goal which was a 14.40 sec. Instead i had ran a 14.80@94.5mph. which is horrible. I had dropped my 60ft from 2.40 to a 2.20sec. But everything else was horrible. how can i have i/h/p, plugs, new trans. i know it was a horrible day, my car didn't even feel very strong tonight. im very disappointed. i have all that stuff in my car. Everyone who has the same thing are makin better than 14.4 second passes. That is BS.
i also noticed how my car gets very hot. so my next mods are gonna be small but sweet and according to "scalbert" i will be increasing 8-9 hp by getting a mugen t-stat, fan switch, and radiator cap. i hope those will help me. i will be going in another month where it is about 55-60 degrees. Shitty day for me

85-90 sounds real nasty to be @ the track man.
If you get those cooling mods, why don't you shell out another $100 and pick up the thermoblock spacers?

The key with going to the track is to go on a good day, or evening.
Hot temps = bad day or evening.
High humidity = bad day or evening.
Next time, if you go when it's cool and dry outside, all other things being equal, you should be faster!
