anyone in here run the 1/8mile i have no 1/4 track around me. my best time was 9.75 with a 04 auto with just an AEM cold air and 105 race gas. just wantin to see how i stack up

 

you put race gas in ur tl? did it blow up?

 

i can only get 10 flat on the quarter and i have 04 auto with intake and exhaust
my reaction time was shitty, like .2 or so hahaha

 

Jeez how do you pull 10 seconds in the 1/4 off lol

 

haha shit! you know what i mean, the eigth mile, ive had a long day at school man, cut me some slack haha

i mean, yeah, i can hit ten flat int he quarter, get some! haha

 

with Auto + CAI, Jpipe, Exhaust, Pulley, TB spacers and 19" work vs-xx wheels:

9.89 @ 74.7 best

With 6mt + AEM V2 CAI, ATLP Jpipe, ATLP quads and stockies:

9.26 @ 77.2 best

 

im going to see what ill do pretty soon

 

yea i put race gas in it and the only thing it did was made it run a little hotter than normal. so do i just have a good engine or something 1 of my friends has an 07 tls and i can pull about 1/2 car on him from a 70+ pull

 

isnt the race gas like double the value of premium gas?

 

no it was 105 or 108 and it was 6.50 a gallon

 

9.60 @ 79.10 mph. Lots of tire spin and a shitty 2.5 second 60 ft. Need drag radials/practice badly.

Just to put into perspective how important traction is, I saw AWD Trailblazer SS's running 8.90's at the same 79 mph as my 9.60 run. Their 60 ft times were probably in the 1.90's.

 

I think this is where someone needs to chime in and say

"FWD FTL"

 

Racegas won't make it run any hotter and it won't blow it up. However, leaded race gas will ruin your convertors and 02s and won't give you a performance advantage unless the car is already pinging.

07 TL-s w/ intake, TB spacer, thermoblock spacer, 3rd cat and reso deletes.. ran a 9.02 in the 8th...and it was against a TBSS w/ a tune and K and N.



by the way this is my fastest time slip for the 1000'...11.5 isnt too bad

 

That's pretty good for a 5AT with light bolt ons.

Wish I could cut a 2.12 sixty foot.

 

Can you say ... up in smoke .

i orderd that tb spacer the underdrive crank pully, the atlp j-pipe and the race pipe. i want to get my car down to a 9.0 or 9.1 in the 1/8 b4 i put a wet zex kit on it. i want to see my tl in the 8's

 

here is a video of mine stock listen at the end for the time

 

9.3's.

Only had Springs, RSB and TB spacer at the time. Stock Michelin MXM4's ( ).

 

i ran a 8.90 @86 blowing the tires through 2nd gear on street tires

 

I still wanna know how you cut a 2.15 sixty foot on street tires before you were supercharged. Refresh my memory!

 

Why bother on an 1/8 mile track unless you're on tire?

 

Lol bearcat who was that tapping ur tl racing.

 

I agree for the most part. Although the TL isn't a very good drag car by any measure (even with 300+ whp), it's really pointless in the 1/8 on street tires; esp. modded manuals. At least in the 1/4 you can show that it's got decent top end and that it can hit triple digits.

 

i really just do it for fun...the 1/4 mile track is an hour away while the 1/8th mile is a couple of miles down the road...i cut 2.1's before the blower...2.2,2.3s with the blower...soon as give it more than 1/2 throttle it goes straight to the rev limiter....im getting some 245 drag radials on some lw wheels..that should make some difference.

 

I predict a 12 second TL! Hopefully once you make a few passes on drag radials others will follow.

 

lets hope...with the same street tires, i ran a 13.7@107 with a 2.3 60

 

8.6@87 is the new time with a 13.2@107...this is on the same street tires.

 

9.75 04 tl with intake and third cat delete 2.2 60ft...at miami countyline dragway really hot tempeture down in south florida

 

Types-09 has supershifting skillz/

 

I ran 9.8 at 73mph today at shadyside with my 01 clp with drop in k+n and unorthadox ultra ss pulley set.and my car has 250lbs pounds of system to carry also.This was my first run ever. I'm gonna try again with traction control off and my 4 12's and amps out.

 

I just realized what year the TBSS was b/c they never had awd, just rwd option, not even 4x4option.

 

very carefully

 

Huh?
