DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 This was from Sunday at Import Faceoff, big thanks to Wagner for uploading the video for me. Car has more in it, too bad the clutch didn't like life during and after this run. Oh well finally in the 11's with a full interior 4dr lol. The MPH is wrong on the description but oh well lol, car actually trapped 123.97, not 113 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Nice, what was the car next to you, E55 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Yeah that is Forrest Gump's car actually, that thing hauls ass. I think it went 11.50's on Sunday. I only got 1 good run in all day, 1st run I did the ole 1-2-5 shift lol, 2nd run was this pass, 3rd run someone turned my boost down to 10lbs while sitting, ran and went 13.7@107, turned it back up only to find my clutch had shit its self on me.

Ef8sirJunkie Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 you trapping 124mph and going 11.8x TPR trapping 126mph going 10.01 i think with lower tire pressure, good burnout, fully adjustable suspension, and traction bar you should be in the same range as Rob.

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 I think with a better clutch it'd go faster lol. Listen in the vid you can hear it slip when I grab 2nd, Mark said you could hear it on the 2-3 shift as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ef8sirJunkie Posted September 3, 2011 Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 hope Comp warranties the clutch. if not might need to look ingot spec, clutch masters, or a higher end exedy. at your level there is no need for a twin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must be letting off, no way in hell they are going 10 flat with only 126mph. It would be a stretch to do that in a rwd car, let alone a fwd.

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2011 they cut a 1.54 60 and were only on 16lbs of boost. They were in the finals of the event, I doubt they were letting off, especially considering the car next to them went 9.xx for the win. But who knows they could've been, however in the video of that run, doesn't sound like either of em lift. I'll post it up later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Cool story bro, now watch this: My bad 10.1@129 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb26deet32 Posted September 6, 2011 Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 Cool story bro, now watch this: My bad 10.1@129 That means it just screwed up his speed. No way he's going 129 to the other guys 150. It's most likely a 10.1 @ 149 not 129. They do mess up some times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 I spoke with Rob on Honda-Tech, he didn't make any mention of the time being screwed up...Also its possible, for instance if you watch my video the car next to me goes 112mph I believe, while I go 124.

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2011 I know the car would've went faster lol, look at the clutch I just took out of my car lol http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p81/alittlelessordinary/Car%20Pics/4dr%20GSR/clutch-1.jpg Notice the pieces metal missing on the pucks. What the hell caused this? I emailed pics to Comp hoping they will warranty this out, but I have a feeling they like most companies will argue that its not their product, but rather a install/break in period error. I disagree with that as every bolt on the entire car is torqued to spec and as mentioned the car was driven easy for first 500-700 miles of life.

How much power are you putting down? Also what kind of flywheel are you using? And are there any cracks on the clutch itself? The same thing happened to me. I was told it's too much torque for the clutches surface area. I went with a 6 puck and I haven't had any problems since. Mine actually cracked in a few places. Really bad wheel hop can cause it to chunk too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be amazed if he actually ran that. 0.1 seconds slower with a 20+ mph difference in trap. He'd have to literally hit a wall to slow down fast enough and still run that time.

DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 I would venture to say I am right around 500whp if that. Car has never been dyno'd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b20vtec91sedan Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Yea josh, I can't wait to put the new clutch in and ride in it... Need to get it on 20psi now!! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaddyBuiltRacing Posted September 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 I think 10s are doable with a good clutch at the current state in which the car is. A couple extra lbs just for security isn't a bad idea though lol. Comp has yet to email me back yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverAudiMike Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 you trapping 124mph and going 11.8x TPR trapping 126mph going 10.01 i think with lower tire pressure, good burnout, fully adjustable suspension, and traction bar you should be in the same range as Rob. By my calculation you are about 2 full seconds off of your estimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b20vtec91sedan Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Damn... Comp is lame... This is only the start of getting the clutch replaced by them.. the bullshit will happen soon enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ef8sirJunkie Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 By my calculation you are about 2 full seconds off of your estimate. Miss information leads to miss information. I simply stated that if he ran 124mph and tpr ran 126mph then his car should run the same time. Y U Mad Bro!!:fuckyeah: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
