At least you didn't lose to a v6 Accord like me....
Oh well...finally made my first trip to the track, and the results were hardly great, but I did learn quite a bit.
First off let me say that I was really in a hurt in terms of traction, right now I'm running Walmart Goodyear tires on my car (dont laugh too hard) and I couldnt hook for nothing all night. I would end up spinning out through all of first gear every time, even dumping the clutch at 1500 and tires lowered to 25 psi. Got 7 runs in,,,,here's my best of the 7
RT= .626
60'= 2.332
330= 6.440
1/8= 9.811
MPH=74.08
1000=12.657
1/4=15.073
MPH=92.9
I know, pretty pathetic
My first ever run was 15.7, and I figured out real quick I had better start driving it a lot harder.
Best highlight of the night was on the run posted above, I did beat a 95 cobra due to better reaction time, he had the better 1/4, but I beat him to the line,,,barely.
Anyways, other than getting some good tires/rims, any other suggestions from you guys?? I also did a poor job of weight reduction,,had over 1/2 tank of fuel, speaker box still in back, ect ect.
Oh well...bright spot is I improved over .7 seconds from my worst run.
