last night before the winter break for T$T at my 1/8th mile...looking for an 8.7 at 83 then i may go to the 1/4 sat morning..8.7 at 83 should be a 13.3-4 at 104-5 and put me back in place as fastest N/A

 

Good luck. What are the temps looking like tonight?

 

I'll beat you in my T.Tercel.
I have an intake and exhaust.

 

38 right now...burrr

 

It is freezing, in gainesville its 38 degrees, and tonight will be like 30

 

Nice and cold but traction might be your enemy.

 

when isnt it...i have that covered...

 

what was your previous best, 13.79 right???

what mods do u have since then?? your on the t1-s right now??

 

13.7 yes at the 1/4...8.930 on that in the 1/8th...since ive gone 8.81 so you can guess from there...since the 13.7 SSR comps,uni chip,lost 30+ lbs myself,and took 75 off the car not including tires,and wheels...oh ya plugs,IK22's vsa removed and changed to an ice box,front konis

 

Allright... I am going to play devil's advocate.

All these shoulda'... woulda'... in the 1/8th mile ain't gonna work. If you run quicker/faster than a 13.57 @ 103+, then you are the quickest. Else, I don't care if you run a 5s 1/8th mile... that does not count

Aahhh... i said it!!

 

^^^ w/ cheater slicks

 

Dude... let's see you drive a 6spd on street tires

 

if i go 8.7 then i will goto the 1/4 on sat or sunday...and you'll have your woulda,just keep in mind though on the auto im in 3rd before the end of the 1/8th and therefore have nothing left to do but ride it out....no chance for missed shift or anyother un forseeables

 

I hope you do get a 8.7 and run very quick.... you are the most prepared to do it at the moment, I would think!

 

Good luck...

 

im back ...i got my 8.7...on my 2nd pass...then on my 3rd i got an 8.621 at 79.75...then went 8.686 at 81.30...also i went 1.950 60' on my toyo's thank you....i had arranged for some mickeys to show up at the track but my friend never made it...maybe sunday for the full 1/4

 

Awesome... Good luck tomorrow - hope you get some good times!

 

here's the 2 break downs of the 2 8.6ers
2.043 60'
5.681 330'
8.686 1/8th
81.30


1.979 60'
no 330'
8.621 at 79.75


i know i said 1.950 i remembered wrong slip says 1.979 several 8.7's at 80-81+

 

Sweet dude! I need to ditch these stock rims so I can drop the 60's even lower. My best 1/8th was 8.619 @ 82.60. Your car has great torque down low, very close to the torque I make with the S/C.

Can't wait to see what it does in the 1/4 mile.


EDIT: You should have no problem running a 13.4 @ 105 with that 60'. Great job.

 

Just FYI, on my 13.5 pass, my slips was as follows:

1.984 60'
8.712 1/8th
82.08 mph

 

impressive.


my best 1/8 is 8.600 @ 84+, but that was w/ a 75 shot.


can't wait to see the 1/4 times.

 

Allmotor what was your wheel/tire setup for that 1.98?

 

found another 8.6 pass in my pocket
2.013
5.650
8.647
81.53

 

Looks great! Hopefully i'll have the blower belt re-installed by the end of the week and head back to the track... you are catching up!

 

^ that's what i'm saying

 

i dont even know how to drive a stick

 

Hehe..

 

^^^ imma learn on a e46 ///m3 this spring though

 

type r

great times, what pressure did have the t1-s at up front and rear??

your catchin up to the s/c and spray guys on the motor, vey impressive

 

25 front 45 rear...i pick up 21-22 on the other end...my calcs say this was a 13.35ish at high 103

 

It will be interesting if you run a 13.35 @ 103. Your 60' is only a few thousandths quicker than mine (1.979 vs. 2.000). I ran a 13.30 @ 107.8. My car must pull like a mofo on the top end in 3rd gear compared to your car and matt's.

 

who's the poor soul that is going to let you destry the gearbox?

 

what was the rest of that slip?

 

60' 2.000
330' 5.637
1/8 8.619
Mph 82.60
1000' 11.177
1/4 13.309
Mph 107.82



EDIT: I also hit the rev limiter once during the 2 -> 3 shift so who knows it could have been a 13.2xx @ 108.xx I have trapped at 108.xx twice

 

still makes sense...im right there with you at the half track ,just youll pull through the top part of 3rd harder trap speed is averaged

 

Nice runs.

Everytime I read this thread title, I start 'singing' the deep cover chorus by Dr. Dre & Snoop.

 

prolly more like 13.1

 

As soon as the belt tensioner is fixed I hope to find out

 

my cousin

 

21-22 what???
