R.T.-------1.1848 (O shit was that light on?)
60ft------2.4294
330ft-----6.3354
1/8ET----9.5401
1/8MPH--77.26
1000ET--12.2632
1/4ET-----14.5901
1/4MPH---98.12

14.5901 @ 98.12

I hit a 14.6055@ @ 97.23 on my first run ( first run ever ) and then lowered tire pressure after that to 25PSI on both fronts and was doing the same all night. Lots of 14.7s and 14.6s . My 60 ft times are terrible and I don't know what else to do about it. Maybe someone can give me some pointers. I think I should be hitting somewhere around 14.50 if I could just get my launch down to 2.3 something. I'm dropping the clutch at around 3500 and I was doing best with that. Tires squeal a lot but that's expected I guess.

Best RT ------- 0.6236
Best 60FT ---- 2.4294
Best 1/8ET --- 0.5401
Best 1/8MPH - 77.50
Best 1/4MPH - 98.42

What tire pressure should I be running at?
What should I be launching at?
What 60 fts are the best anyone has done here stock?
What about 1/4ET and 1/4MPH, best for stock 6sp?

Thanks everyone

 

u could def shave some time off the 1/4 if you get better 60 foots, 3500 might be to hard of a launch. but i dont think its possible to get a 2.1 60 foot on the stock michelins, me personal best is a 2.36

 

Civic....dont get mad about those 60' times, ive been trying for months now to get lower one's on stock tires, and i dont think its possible....nice traps though....w/I/H/E i trapped 100, but thats the best i could manage, but now i trap 108 w/spray, so i would have to say try the I/H/E routine....or go straight to the nitrous...i personally like the I/H/E first b/c you have more power when your bottle isnt full , but you can kick some serious ass when that bottle is full

 

yeah... one of our friends in Dallas ran a 2.16 60' with his new rims/tires. I'm really hoping this summer I can work and get myself a set of wheels/tires. Then with some I/H and a bottle I can hit 13s.

 

yeah....im hoping maybe for my b-day in April i'll get a little bit of cash to put towards some new tires...rims maybe, but definitely tires...i think w/better tires, you can get into the 13's w/just I/H...Hell TypeR trapped 13.7@101, so i think a 13.9 is definitely possible, plus Allmotor claims to have run 13.9@99,so who knows..im hoping to be the first CL in the 12's

 

Try to feather the throtle till u start moving...

 

really nice car bro

 

you need me to come drive that thing? ...take the pressure down some more...if you measured 25 cold they could easily heat up to above 40...ive gone as low as 16...dont be affraid once i hit 20 psi i go one p.s.i. at a time until i hook but not bog..

 

come now... I don't think I need you driving it... you think you can do better? hehe... don't you drive an automatic CLS ?

 

ya that's only because there was no 6 speed in '01,but rest assured i can shift

 

anyone can shift... Launching is the difficult part...

 

BTW not sure if you saw i went 13.794 @101.54 today
it's like the hyundai commercial...im telling every one

 

type r, you can come here and run my car for me, or bring yours over and beat the 540's ass that walked me past 70 mph

 

that's great man... congrats...

I forgot to mention something...
I'm a dumbass...


I ran with 2 hampers of laundry in the trunk (was gonna do laundry before I left Austin) as well as my spare and a 10 lb metal bar for a shelf in my room that I was gonna go buy screws for to mount on my wall... hehe... it was a last minute trip to the track...

not a TON of weight but about 50 lbs for all that stuff I suppose...

DOH! next time I'mma gut this puppy before I go...

 

funny i did the same thing a month or so back...my golf bad and my friend that changed my tires for me left an air compressor in the trunk too....must have approach 100lbs...luckily the guys at the track let me store the stuff until the end of the night...but my first pass was with it in...i opened the trunk and was like WTH

 

haha... damn!!! now THAT's weight... have you heard that Allmotor ran a 13.9 stock? there's no way that's possible...

 

no not stock...16"wheels with DR's.H/I/...

 

ooooo that's why! haha... he said stock on the board somewhere lemme find it...

 

oooo I misread his comment on your thread about your new 1/4 mile time...

read it as that he ran a 13.9 stock hehe another stupid move by me...

 

TypeR what do you have besides that 3.5L upgrade?

 

 

headers ,intake,and toyo T1-S 235/45
did i mention 2.063 60' times and now have gone 2.0** on 12 occassions with one wheel drive

 

damn....that turbo integra trapped 102mph...he must be like me having traction problems....

Hey TypeR...have you gone to the dyno yet? If so, what did you put down?

 

no dyno yet

 

yeah that was my friend's Integra LS Turbo running 10 lbs of boost... Dynos at 220 fwhp and 210 ft lbs... He coudln't get traction through 1st and 2nd gear... We finally borrowed some slicks and he put down a moderate 14.2 time. He didn't know how to burn them up correctly...
