ASSuming no issues getting the pump map squared away I am heading to atco this coming thursday to test out the new setup. At this point the weatherman says low 80's which would fantastic but we all know weathermen. Anyone interested in making a mini-meet out of it?
well since the meet at absolute cant happen im there!

mikie might show in the 7 - he is not selling for the time being- but if he doesn't get his brakes unstuck by thurs he'll just spectate and not race...

fastjim- were u asking about dyno tuning while at atco? they don't have a dyno there, but yes, dyno tuning does indeed cost a decent chunk of change depending on where you go and how many pulls you do, etc... there's a thread about it somewhere around here- something about sincere pulling nice #s and getting a dyno day together...
as for the party at 'my place', sorry guys- no can do- seeing as i have to get up for work in the morning, and the place in which i currently sleep is not my own... sorry!

Anyone running low 15's wanna race?

08-24-2005, 02:18 PM
Look forward to seeing the plot Bob. As for the racepipe wihtout being tuned for it you wont see a ton of power but it should raise VE some and improve overall flow. Also, just because your catless doesnt mean youre gonna shoot fireballs. Its all in the tune.

ok i just called- she said it is in fact still opened to muffled street cars, though it doesn't say so on the hotline... she said there'll be more cars there than usual, but we should still get a decent amount of runs in.
it's questionable, but it'll still be a fun night for a meet there, regardless...

Even if we don't get a lot of runs in, a lot of people and cool cars will be there, i think it'll be a good time (quiet sandra :p )

YEA except for now i'm all pumped to race (pun intended, unfortunately) and i want to get lots of runs in. oh well, i guess if we go expecting not to run alot, and just enjoy ourselves, all we'll be is pleasantly suprised if we do get lots of runs in! just puts more emphasis on the neccessity of getting there early, however! :eek:

15.1 @ 97 mph with 2.5 60', I was pulling on a trans am, but couldn't quite catch it. But actually catching up to something for once made me so happy. :) I think a 2.4 60' is about all the stock suspension has in it though, but I'll be into 14's when I do the suspension. *dances*

For my first time being there, I must say that I had a pretty good time, especially seeing the Cobra and Camaro run 7.56@193 and 7.38@191, respectively. Congrats to Karl for running a 13.02 and Orbit for running a 13.2. After seeing the mix of cars that ran tonight, I'd definitely run mine if we all went up again.

Looking at my timeslips, I got there at 6pm, & had my first run before I could even shut the car off. The next three came very quick, then it got crowded.
6:11pm (14.6@94)
6:26pm (14.2@96)
6:41pm (14.3@96)
7:51pm (14.2@93)
...
waiting for the quick 8's
...
9:53pm (14.2@95)
My 60' times were all 1.9's, I'm happy that I was consistent, but I still want a 13.xxx. :furious:
The most fun, was when I gridded next my friend Paul in the silver 2005 mustang. His reaction time was .2 better, but my E.T. was .2 better, so we crossed the line at exactly the same time. I love a close race.
And thanks for clearing my CEL. :wink:

It's really not all that great, I blew so much gas on the way down weaving through traffic with those idiots. I was dragging racing with the fuel light on. After filling up my 18.5 gallon tank, I cryed and crawled home at 65 mph. Got 33 mpg though. :)

Nah, I had about a 1/4 when we started, and the R starts when I've got 2.5 gallons. Still a good 2-3 gallons getting there, where as my gauge hasn't moved from F yet from the return trip.

Pete, I wanna just get a word in:
Are you sure you want a rematch? My old times are up there too, a tad quicker, but I also had zero traction and bad mounts. I now have power at the ground and sticky tires...once I get an alignment, I'm heading back up. You should let me see if I can "launch" your car.

I know Blue32 told me not to worry but, my first run was a 15.5 @ 90 and my second was a 15.0 @ 90. I think if everyone would have stayed for one more run I would have nailed it and ran pretty good into the high 14s somewhere. It is only 5 days old and my first AWD run so.......

What you need to do is stop thinking about it. Your hands and feet know what they're doing. Did you have to shift into 4th on that run? Cause I'm running out of 3rd gear with my 15.1. :(

I need to get some stronger motor and tranny mounts they are still the stock 80's rubber mounts. That should help when shifting.
