y2k2gt Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 I was scared of my car today. It just pulls so hard now I was letting off on the big end. The last pass I let off about 100' before the finish line. I also have cobra brakes up front and stock size in the rear. I is scary trying to slow down from 130mph with the skinnies up front. I just think I'm going to lock them up. It was a fun time being back at the track. My new fuel system is at 70% duty cycle with 18psi, so I have alot of room for more power. I just have to relearn how to drive it. I can't get it to hook up launching with any boost. It just spins. I have 325/50/15 bfgoodrich drag radials. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/100_0641.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/100_0646.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/th_100_0648.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/th_100_0650.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/th_100_0653.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suffocateXfaster1647545505 Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 I got my ass burned today sitting in those damn bleachers. Very clean looking car and looks like you had some great runs put in. I watched it make a few passes today. What was your best run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y2k2gt Posted September 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 This is about 9:15 this morning when I got to the track. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/100_0658.jpg This is around 11am just before time trial. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/100_0661.jpg This is my only time trial and I ran it just like it was yesturday, but I didn't let off untill the finish line. The best mph in the 1/8 befoer this was 105mph. 7.26@107.68 1/8 and 10.98@131.66 1.96 60' This was at 11:09. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/th_100_0666.jpg This is my first race at 2:12. I drop the tire pressure to 12psi and turned the boost up a little. I turned the strange rear shocks to 0. I dialed in a 11.0 knowing I could go quicker. The other guy dialed in a 14.0. I catch him at the 1000' and he looks over at me kinda funny like he thought he had a really bad light. I slow down to just stay in front of him and win with a 11.60@96.6. He should have stayed in it because he cut a .064 to my .116. My 1/8 was a 7.35@108.34 with a 2.04 60' new best mph in the 1/8. I shifted to 2nd at 7000rpm and to 3rd at 6500rpm. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/th_100_0672.jpg The 2nd race at 3:43 the other guy dialed in a 13.52 to my 11.0. He fouled and I was yea I get another time trial. I tried launching with boost again and spun badly getting a 2.23 60'. I ran 7.69@107.42 and 11.40@132.27 new best 1/4 mph. I did look at my boost guage this pass and was running 18psi. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/th_100_0673.jpg 3rd race at 5:43 I knew I couldn't make a mistake. The other driver which was a girl dialed in a 11.28 to my again 11.0. I caught her at the 1/8 and thought I might win. When I crossed the line her light came on. I was listening to the race on my radio and they said dual break out. I was thinking how would that happen I was out of the throttle and then back on it right at the end. She ran a 11.273 to my 10.928@125.13. I should have not got back in it at the line, but I had alot of fun. the 1/8 was 7.193@108.48 1.960 60' new best mph. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t165/y2k2gt/th_100_0674.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fattyona12 Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Must say worst True street i have been in, but I broke my curse and didn't break in this one. No police escort and 40 was a bumpy mess. The track sucked when we got back from the cruise too. Yet I ended up 4th overall with a 10.67 average. In the morning i pulled a 1.45 60' and ran a best with this set up of 10.39 @ 129.6.

suffocateXfaster1647545505 Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Highlight of the day yesterday aside from the racing was the announcer calling out the little kid that stole a banner. "Sure, hang it up with proud show what you stole. There you go." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99BlownYellowGT Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 My garage is full of those banners they let us have them a couple years ago. Nice runs by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
