Damn man very nice times


Thanks man. Hey were you at cecil a couple of friday nights ago running 12.0's@124mph? Reason I ask I was there a few fridays ago just watching and saw a black civic hatch with black wheels running 12.0s, if it is yours thats a quick F'N car, I didn't expect it to run that fast.

Thanks.I wish it would run 9's. Don't think it'll do it with this combination, If it weighed a little less im pretty sure it would have ran 9's already. I'll let you know when I go again.

Were you at cecil yesterday, saturday the 25th? I saw afew nova's there. i was there in the morning.
It was the first time i have been to a drag track in like 16 years. jeez. It was awesome! I finaly found out what my car runs so i have something to compare it to before the new setup. I foung out afew things about my car and me. I need to practice. i can not time the launch well! Brake tq'ing is very difficult to time perfectly and the brakes on the car will not hold her back . At about 15lbs and 35oorpm she starts to break free and move alittle. My second run i tryed to get a great launch and started the brake tq alittle earlier than my first run. Boost and rpm's shot up and if i could have launched right then, she would have esily hit mid 1 second 60 foot and low 12's... but she started to move. I had to stop and back up and start over. My 3rd and last run i timed her pretty well and got a pretty good lauch. most of my times were only different because of my reaction times....lol . they suck, .4 to .6 seconds. Like i said, it was my first time to a track in along long time , and even then, i ran a bike not a car!!

60"-ranged from 1.7 to 1.87
1/4 mile speed ranged from 107.9(108)mph to 108.99(109)mph
1/4 mile time ranged from 12.6 to 12.8 seconds

First run i ran a srt4. This kid was pretty cool and a nice car he had. He went a 14.0 at 101 and a negative r/t.
I must say, i saw a sweet cobra there and a red lightning, ta's and some z28's. I was expecting to see mid to low 11's from those cars. none of them were that fast, infact they were all about exactly my times. I think most "fast " street cars are low 12's from what i saw. There was a black ford focus racing a integra that was yellow and looked hooked up and realy nice. i think he ran a low 13. There was a sweet sweet silver viper also. i did not see the numbers and the video was looking at the wrong lane but i think it was mid to low 11's with a real good driver. Most other cars there were non-street cars. My second run, this mustang ran a 10.2 at 135 and my third run i ran an late 60's camaro that jumped offsides but i was right next to him the hole time. It was alot of fun.

No wasn't me, this is what my car looks like. http//:community.webtv.net/FstFknNova415/10SecNova

Next time you go back to the track try pumping the brakes a couple of times while your staging the car, it should help so it doesn't try rolling front.
