Default Best ET and MPH tonight.

Yay. Bought a helmet.


Ran the bucket. Here's a time slip. EDIT: (I'M # 74)

Best ET:


Best MPH:


I do it legal.

It cost me only $15.

I didn't get any tickets and still had fun.

Teh guy on the best ET timeslip was a boosted D16z6 with T3/T4 hybrid, 6-puck clutch, big FMIC, CO2 sprayer in a fif-gen fo-do. He so hates his car. He can't spool it until 4500, and by then it's too late. I'd say that big ol' T3 center section is too heavy for a 1.6L.

I tried to get him to sign up to HAN because I know you guys will take good care of him... at least he won't be another one of those "what can I do to make my civic go faster" newbs. He's considering a smaller turdbo.

I spun a wheel bearing in the GSX tonight, quit early and squeaked home. It must have been the two consecutive 1.7 60' times. The last time, my car said "no more". Horsepower calculations are around 380-395 tonight based off of my car's weight, ET, and MPH. What a difference 20 degrees and no humidity make.

Crank horsepower. And I haven't had it on a real dyno yet, that's calculated. My car sucks 25% off of the crank (from gear reduction, and pluderous bulkitude in the drivetrainage) because it's AWD. Probably around 300 at the wheels, but it runs 12.6's despite the spare tire, jack, 3 toolboxes, my laptop, my KFC Crispy Strips meal (which I didn't get time to eat before timed runs began ), and a full interior.

At least the potato wedges kept me alive.

Thanks. I still red-light every once in a while just like a human. 'bout every 8-10 runs. Doesn't matter much at a test -n- tune event, but all my timeslips were winners tonight including the one where I broke it. That's never happened to me before. I had a really good time .

I've got a bunch of yellow's from my previous turbo setup .

That last timeslip was against a Dodge SRT-4 that was almost completely stock. Nothing was hacked but his motor mounts and a boost controller. When I bought my car, I had to actually work and spend money to get 13.5's. As fast as the Dodge is fresh out of the box, you'd still never catch me in one. He was the only guy in the class I was in that gave me a good run and didn't bitch about it. I can't believe how many SRT-4's showed up tonight. I mean... seriously. Is Dodge giving them away now?
