I hate cars

What's it run?

There was an 8G V6 5AT at the track running mid 16's @ like 87 mph. It was his first time out, but damn, it's an automatic, lol. I don't what the hell was wrong with it.

hektik02

ouch.

I hate cars

My first run at the track ever when I was 16 or 17 was a 16.4 at around 102mph. Finally got into the 13s that day with no changes to the car, only to my driving. I'm sure the Accord didn't have traction problems but there's many days my TL feels like its in the 16s.

Yeah, but we both know trap speed is hard to mess up, unless he let off. On a related note, I work with a guy who took a 6MT base to the track and ran low 17's at 93 mph on his first pass. He eventually got into the 15's as the day progressed, but the trap didn't go up much. He may have hit 94-95. I think some people just get super nervous on their first outing. It takes a few trips to be able to tune everything out and really focus.

I hate cars

I fully agree. Mph doesn't really change with traction and everyone gets nervous the first time. My 16 second run I smoked the tires so bad I just kept the pedal planted to give them a show. It took 10 or more runs to hit the 13s. I want to say 12-15 runs. Our club rented the track out that day and I could make a pass, get my slip, and go again. If it had been any other track day with the typical 3-4 runs I would have gone home with a 14-15 second time slip. I ran a whole tank of gas out of the car that day and had to buy a couple gallons of race gas to get home.

My friend who had a new Camaro SS around 2000 went to the track and immediately got told to leave because he was wearing shorts. We were on the way to a party that night and i had talked so much trash about how the car couldn't run 13s that we ended up at the track that night instead. We talked the official into giving us one run and we would leave. So my friend being experienced let the clutch out easy and then floored it with quick but safe shifts. It went 13.6 factory stock when most were lucky to hit a 13.9999 at that track.

wow! that is slower than my dads 98 AV6! he was running 15.7's!

mazdaspeed3God

Satin and Sonnick are brothers. We know.

SatinSilverAV6

iTrader: (2)

was that directed at me?

haven't ran it yet with all the mods. Should be in the mid-low 14's around 100mph is my quess.

dabeast51

So sure the 8th gen is going to be the one seeing taillights? ahahah

SatinSilverAV6

iTrader: (2)

Your vid, i get a 5.4 second average from 30-70mph, on my vid i get a 5.1 average from 30-70

dabeast51

In your vid you already had momentum seeing as you gunned it from 0 don't forget lol

dabeast51

And that vid was not too long after getting a j pipe so my ecu was still adjusting

dabeast51

But all bragging aside good shit your car hauls man

dabeast51

Aye in all seriousness if we were to meet up where would you guys be able to meet up? I was thinking we could drag at irwindale since we all live far from each other, because i live in the san fernando valley

dabeast51

Lets plan something for december over christmas vacation

paperboy42190

iTrader: (7)

bring it to the runs. mon/wed/fri nights in LA

SatinSilverAV6

iTrader: (2)

as does yours! Neat to compare rides you know? I would be down to run at irwindale. I checked google maps and I am 94 miles away. 1hr 33 minutes on a good day of traffic. I'd hope tyler would roll up too! However tyler and i will run before that occurs

SatinSilverAV6

iTrader: (2)

i gunned it from 7mph haha, but you were manual shifting.

SatinSilverAV6

iTrader: (2)

i timed our 40-70 where you have your momentum

Yours - 4.67
Mine - 4.17

I hate cars

Comparing speedos? Really?

vietxquangstah

iTrader: (7)

lol @ dabeast & satin silver

"you had momentum, i had no momentum"
"you were using manual shift mode i wasn't"

SatinSilverAV6

iTrader: (2)

only for fun. it really doesn't mean anything

anx1300c

iTrader: (2)

Lol, I was gonna say this thread had taken a turn toward Ricerville, but I didn't have the heart.


Just run 'em guys, but be safe.

paperboy42190

iTrader: (7)

let me know if you guys decide to do it on the streets

bouncer07

RUNiT! And POSTiT!

hektik02

People be bull shittin. Let's do this! No more talk.

SatinSilverAV6

iTrader: (2)

ha, i am not as eager to run you. a stock M3 E46 runs low 13's with 107+traps. I am a full second slower than you and running 100mph maybe. Would be neat to see how bad the beating is though haha

anx1300c

iTrader: (2)

Stock e46 M3's are all over the place with their traps, but most are in the 103-105 mph range. 275-280 whp can only do so much against 3400 lbs. I wonder if the Vanos starts to affect performance on the older ones, because they're really all over the map, performance wise.

TylerT

iTrader: (1)

^ +1 ... why would a bolted E46 M3 want to run a few mid 14 second Hondas? Bragging rights?

SatinSilverAV6

iTrader: (2)

interesting point man. when the e46 M3 first came out, i saw many 13.3 @107+ traps at sears point raceway. they were almost hanging right with the E39 M5's but the M5s were at 13.1 trapping 109. I think you are right about the age of the M. I haven't seen any come close to that time as of recently

hektik02

bragging rights... hehe... na... i just want to do some friendly runs thats all. i ran my friends camaro SS 2013. It was all for fun man.. Anyways, anyone interested hit me up. 619 569 6531. thanks.

Acuradriver92

Didn't read much ^^^^^ but anyone near the Inland Empire want to race in 2 weeks? We can run it and have a quick photoshoot or something
