I am very pleased with my times Tonight, I made my goal of breaking into thw 13s. Even better it was on old 205/70/14 tires. I defiantly could save alot of time by having a decent set of tires on the rear of the car. I have a 2600-2700rpm stall and couldn't get to use it. He is how the 4 runs went.

Run 1: Leaving off idle with 25psi
60' 2.197
1/8 9.061
1/4 13.959
mph 100.99

Run 2: Leaving at 1500rpm with 25psi
60' 2.212
1/8 9.189
1/4 14.16
mph 99.63

Run 3: Yeah my brother was driving lol ( Leaving at idle with 20psi )
60' 1.882
1/8 8.72
1/4 13.65
mph 99.87

Run 4: Leaving at 1500rpm with 18psi
60' 1.993
1/8 8.78
1/4 13.68
mph 100.64

Can felt good but had some wheel hop when I left at 1500rpm. Still was an awsome night. Lots of people and lots of cars out there. I think I have the mph to turn maybe some 13.4s with a good set of tires. Maybe a 75hp shot and I'll be in the high 12s for a car I drive about 1000miles a month I'm pretty happy with it.

Silver04STi · 10-19-2005, 12:34 AM

I think I might have passed you on RT 73. Does your license plate say tims 88 or something like that? Congrats for breaking into the 13's.

1988 Olds · 10-19-2005, 12:43 AM

Yeah man if you were in the Black LGT then I defiantly do remember seeing one at the track and also one on RT 73. How did you end up doing.

Silver04STi · 10-19-2005, 12:47 AM

Yea that was me. I didn't do too good at the track...I couldn't get my launch down. Best time was 14.5 with a 2.4 60'. I certainly should be able to get that 60 down to 1.8x-1.9x. Once I get the 60 down, should be 13's without a problem. I can launch all day on the street and not bog, but the track was another story.

SilverBulletRL · 10-19-2005, 08:28 AM

Awesome numbers tim. Now I know what my car is capable of since whenever you and I race, we're pretty much neck and neck.

SilverTurboRidin · 10-19-2005, 08:55 AM

Bout F-n Time

2point4DSM · 10-19-2005, 09:15 AM

Great job. Now stiffen those rear springs a bit to help with wheel hop and setup it up like Run 4 again. You can fill the gap of your springs with rubber inserts. Getting stiffer shocks would help too.

Just remember, if you get too much traction the next weakest link will rear it's ugly head.

1988 Olds · 10-19-2005, 10:23 AM

Yeah it is about time man. Yeah Parts breaking is exactly the problem. The engine and Stage 2 (Good for like 600hp or something) are pretty much new. The next thing to go is the rear. It's only a 7.5in so they are pretty weak. There are a few guys running like mid-high 12s on them but I'm not going to push it. 1.88 is a good 60' on bad tires.

Future :
In the future I would like to get a 8.5 in outa GN (3.42s) or 442 (perfer 3.73s)
Adjustable Uppers Control Arms
Lower Control Arms
Springs/Struts
Like a 15X8 wheel with 255/60/15s Drag Radial on it. Could probably even run full slick.

max2k1 · 10-19-2005, 10:25 AM

nice times Tim

snakeeyes · 10-19-2005, 10:39 AM

good job, what kind of tires were you running?

try a little extra fuel load over the rear next time

1988 Olds · 10-19-2005, 12:10 PM

Tires were 205/70/14s off a stock 84' Camaro. Firestone Firehawks I want to say. I also did have basically a fuel tank of gas. Filled it, drove 2 miles to track and raced.

Bad is a relative word. Seem to be pretty decent tires to me....

1988 Olds · 10-19-2005, 01:11 PM

I mean bad compared to like a decent 255/60/15. You have to remember my car runs big tires not like 195s. A good slick and I think I could pull low 1.7s

SilverTurboRidin · 10-19-2005, 03:18 PM

Yeah his usual tire's are ALOT bigger than that...i guess he didnt wanna destroy them though huh lmao

Little G · 10-19-2005, 05:24 PM

nice times....I gotta go to the track soon to

TehWagon · 10-19-2005, 07:09 PM

heyyyy let's all jump on the 'i got into the 13s before ash' bandwagon!!!!

haha- j/p - congrats!

SexyDSM95 · 10-19-2005, 07:27 PM

1.8-1.9 are not bad 60' times at all as someone stated. That's pretty "average" to what the AWD'ers do.

DropTopChevy · 10-19-2005, 08:02 PM

I liked it when you used to run 18's and I could beat you in my parents AWD jeep 6 cylinder.

99SL2_Modder · 10-19-2005, 08:11 PM

...

How are you pleased? Your car should be in the 11's WITHOUT nitrous. Fix your damn timing and get it over here so we can fix your richness. I can garuntee you that you'll be running sub 13's and most likely sub 12's if you just fix your friggin car.

*edit*
Though, I guess the 18 to 13 jump is pleasing, but I'm telling you that you're not going as fast as you should be or making the power you should be with the amount of work your car has done. It's not tuned right. Period.

Intercooled T · 10-19-2005, 10:33 PM

get an 8.5" rear w/ some 3.42 gears and wider tires
