Atco tonight! 6/30
 

Anyone else coming? Ill be there in the Genesis coupe white! Come over and say hello!

Ah you're lucky you live right down the road. I'll be hitting Atco up in probably 2 weekends from now. Can't wait to see how my new setup fairs.

^ Is Keefer your last name or first name?

Is it raining there? its downpouring in most of the tri state area...

its on and off rain here :(

and i still have a crack in my windshield.

I suck.

Pouring like a mofo here. Hope to hit track next week! Good luck with the car.

is it just test and tune on tuesdays?

gluck rich post up how u do..also congrats on the new whip!!

and to the last poster its gambler racing/ street cars on tuesdays..if you get there by the time the gates open you get about 4 runs in

most tuesday/thursday nights, you can get 4 runs in before 6:30. then from 6:30 to 10 you normally get 2-3 more.

Yeah you usually want to get there as early as possible if you want to make it worth your effort to go there. I mean if I only lived 5 minutes from the place I wouldn't care that I only got 2 runs. However being I drive over an hour I like to at least get 4 runs. The least I ever got was 2 runs and the most was 5 runs.

i've gotten 10 runs in one night. about 7 before 6:30


if i ever see you out there, i wanna run you in my stock formula. i went 13.0 @ 108. so it should be a drivers race

Yeah if you can launch your car you will win no matter what. I have to baby it off the line. The last time I went to Atco (the first time this year) My 60 foots were the worst I have ever seen. I got 2.4 60 foot and I was breaking loose over 50mph. I sure hope the track prep is better the next time I go. With my new tires I hope to get a little better traction off the line. If I could just pull off a 2.0 or 1.9 60 foot I will break into the 12's!

I couldnt of went on a better night! It drizzled for a few minutes before they started racing and never again. There was hardly anone there and I got 5 or 6 runs by 745! :mrgreen: Ill post my slip up as soon as I get home. I forgot it there. :mad: I know one thing with this car I need some tires! :(

what were your times?

He told me he ran a best of 15.8



....j/k i bet it was pretty decent. I wonder what one of those things do out of the box.

Unfortanetly only a 15.4 at 87mph with a 2.2 60'. I couldnt get out of the hole! :mad::cry: It didnt help that it was a 100% humidity and was still 82 degrees.


Ive heard most people to be in the 15.2 range some claim faster. I think with a set of tires it could easily be a mid 14 car.

From what I have heard those cars are pretty heavy so I think that is the reason why you got the time you did?. I bet if that sucker was pulling less weight it would fly. How much do those cars weight?. If you were able to pull off a 1.9 60 foot you would have been into the 14's without a problem I think. My best 60 foot to date on my FWD stock tires is 2.1 (almost a 2.2). The last time I went to Atco (this year) my 60 foots were SO bad. I was getting 2.4's and 2.3's. From what I have heard Atco hasn't been too great this year traction wise.

definitely not bad for the auto, what were your tire pressures at, and rpm you launch at?

Ive heard they way in around 3400! I tried full tire pressure and then dropped them down to 26. 26 was def better. Most of the problem is with the tiny stock turbo your either in boost or your not. So when I try to build boost at the line I keep breaking the tires loose. If I had a set of dr's Id def be able to come out a lil harder. Atco IMO has been terrible this year with track prep. Ive raced there my whole life and Ive never seen it like this.

I actually got my best time at Atco this year, but I was never there before so I dunno how that compares.
