Blew it at the track...Last Run!

It was my friend time at the track this season. I didn't bring any slicks because I wanted to see what my 60ft would be before I do full coil overs and 10 way adjustables. I have eibach sportline on with KYB drop shocks and it sucks ballz. I get no weight transfer from them.

I blew my trans/clutch/flywheel on my last run. When I hit 4th a cloud of black smoke came from the trans area. That is what we seen on tape, it did look pretty kool. I was like ooo damn I broke my car at the track I got a slow race car. :D

I was on nitto 275dr at 19psi launching at 4500RPM I got a 2.26 60ft, 13.55 at 108.3mph reving to 5.800rpm. I was happy with that time because my car went side ways in 2nd and just stayed on it. I thought it was going to be my last run. :rolleyes: This didn't have the car ready for nitrious at the time. Hell even if i did I wouldnt have used it.

I have no idea why I couldn't take it to 6800k or even the stock gt rev limiter which is 6250rpm. I have been messin around with my car with my friends when it was over heating so that may explain it.

Its really weird how I would get the best timing out of the car over 4k. I launched the car at 2000-3500rpm but 4k+ was the best. I found it easier playing with one power level then two. What i mean by this is that if i hooked the car at 2500 then feeling that it hooked and hammer it I would spin the tires as soon as i hit 4k.

Will be selling the suspension soon if anyone is interested in just dropping there car. Almost 10,000 miles on springs,shocks,struts.
 
NM seen No N20. And sorry to hear :( BTW thats FAST for a 5800RPM shift! Do you have a stock 4V with just exhaust and a CAI? I think they like to be moved to 6500ish, so it will probably go 110-111 when its all right.
 
Lol you guys are funny as hell. OMG post video...I'm going to call my friend tomorrow and see if he'll give me the video. I don't know if i wanna show it because you'll be like..."I think he missed every gear?" My shift light wasnt working and i was trying to shift off of that.

I don't know if you wanna drop it more then 19psi on street tires even though they are DR. From what i have seen my car assuming its at 100% <which no ones car is ever at 100%> will trap 110-113mph. I think that is pretty good for the mods that i have. Mods are listed in sticky.
 
To get your MPH that high on a 13.55, you must be spinning your tires quite a bit. Most cars trapping at 108 are going to be deep in the 12's. Might be time for new drag radials after you get your tranny fixed.
 
DR's are a different breed than regular street tires in this regard.. you will see an improvement by dropping them.your 19 psi isnt much under what I run in them on the street lol. gotta be ready at all times ya know.(25psi)

i noticed a considerable improvement from 16 to 12 psi
 
Crap 14-16psi huh...

Called the trans shop its going to be done tomorrow. I blew the clutch, flywheels gone, and this sounded crazy to me, I bent the shift fork in 3/4 and messed up the syncros in those 2 gears. \

I'm sure that suspension is hurting me bad. When I had the stock suspension I would hook so hard but now I just spinning. When I make my new track video I'll show you guys the difference between the Eibach Sportline springs and kyb shocks/struts vs the Coil overs/10way adjustables.

I have a buddy that works at Strange and i'm get there full coil over kit with the 10way adjustables in 2 weeks. Next time I head to the track i'm going to be on some M/Ts, and spraying it to 6500rpm. I'm not going to post a thread unless I have the video and time slip to post. Without those two things threads usually suck. ;p
