Hit the track tonight

Times were much better than last week-it was a little cooler outside. Here is my best run:

Reaction time .578
60' 2.275
330 6.260
1/8 9.471
MPH 75.80
1000 12.260
1/4 14.610
MPH 96.18

What do you guys think? I should get my UR Pullies installed within 2 weeks so I am anxious to see what that does.

In 4 runs car got quicker by almost .05 each time, except one run when I hit the rev limiter.

I always gate shift. I agree though I think the times should be better. I checked my actuator tonight between runs and it is working.

Thanks. Would you believe that was on the stock Michelins? I have almost no tread left on them which I think actually helps them grip.

Most of my mods came after the tranny replacement so I really don't have any comparison numbers. My Tranny was replaced last year I think before Acura started changing the ECU's.

nice 60" times. I think you are losing top speed due to lowered front tire pressure.

I think at 96 MPH you should at 14.8-14.9s, so the hookup at the launch lets you gain 0.2s.

You had to be relieved when we figured out your actuator was broken which explained your slow time. We should make it back next Friday or possibly Wednesday if your car is done.
