damn nobody has faith in a d16 huh? to bad the b16s out there couldnt run better ran a 16.0 unless the had more than basic bolt-ons. i didnt run my car to the extreme either, i was 110 miles from home and didnt take the trailer, so if something happened to my car, my friends and i would have been fawked. so i went alittle easy on it, next time i will go alot harder cuz we will bring the trailer i hope and my timingbelt,waterpump will be new.

.75 reaction time
2.42 60'
330 6.64
1/8 10.16
1/4 mile 15.82 @ 87.01mph

this is the mustang 4.6 i ran aganst
.415 r/t
2.36 60'
330 6.543
1/8 9.89
1/4 15.069 @ 95.80mph

i did pretty good aganst him until after the 1/8 mile then he started to pull on me
my second run was worse, i slipt second gear losing about 1.1 seconds. i ran a 16.8 @ 85mph.


next time i go im going to put back on the CAI, and strip the interior.

.500 is the best R/T you can possibly get...

there are two types of trees.. sportsman and pro tree

sportsman is standard and BEST is .500, protree best is .400 i HIGHLY doubt you were running a pro tree at a grudge night, or test and tune at the local track....

then it was sportsman tree.. it is 3 actually... yellow yellow yellow green... best rt possible is .500


read this:
The next section is the three amber starting signals. In most bracket racing classes and Sportsman classes, these bulbs will light in sequence, a half-second apart. This is called a Full Tree. Some classes, however, use a Pro Tree. A Pro Tree will light all three ambers simultaneously, with a four-tenths of a second delay between them and the green light. We will concentrate just on the workings of the Full Tree.

The last two lights then, of course, are the green and red lights. The green will come on after the amber bulbs if the driver has not left the starting line too soon. Leaving the line before the green light will result in the dreaded red light... a foul start.

As we said earlier, a Full Tree counts down at half-second intervals. The cycle goes: Amber on, delay, amber off and next bulb on. Here's the important part. The reaction timer starts when the third amber comes on. Since there is a half-second (or .500 seconds) delay until the green light comes on, a .500 reaction time is perfect. (In the same way, the four tenths delay of the Pro Tree makes a .400 a perfect light on that one) Now, the reaction timer stops when the car leaves the starting line. To understand this better, we must examine the starting line, and how it relates to the Tree.
