Anyone Going To The Drags Next Wednesday? (29th Sept)

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

shit 170th car? haha didnt know it was gonna be that packed, im taking my car to compete

[Mr_GaZZa]

I went...

Best I got was a 14.2

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

14.4 at 162 kph

[Mr_GaZZa]

anyone else go.. post times?

I'm pretty dissappointed again by my 14.2s pass

although I seem to be getting alot of tramping from the rear end up to 100km...

I think its my lowered suspension and 19" low profile wheels yeah?

My car was pushing 230rwhp, and now i have a decat and new plenum intake so should be around 250hp?!

What were your 60' times?

Managed a 13.7 when I bought my 33 and took it down stock. A good 60' time is going to get you a good ET as long as you don't bounce off limiter or miss a gear.

I'm keen to take my R1 down but too scared to take off full bore down a drag strip just yet.

13.9 @ 165 km/h (260rwhp R33)

not really happy with that considering my 196rwhp CA18 S13 did a 13.8

the Work 18's on the rear weren't a good choice - they either bogged down or span all the way through first belting limiter.

Anyone get any videos / pics?

13.7 stock? geez im putting out 280rwhp. the 60' was 2.39 on my best run. i guess the 18in wheels and stiff suspension doesnt help? some pretty bad axle tramp on 1st gear when i clutch dumped at 3k rpm.

Get Some Stockies on 16's n put Slicks on it.. n Stock Suspension @ da back if u can so it squats down so u get more grip...

I got 13.7 wif 2.2 60'@ 104Mph.. 3 years ago putting out i say 250HP on 17's wif street tyres..

With the Right Tyre, Suspension n driving skill a low 13's is a possible...

U can try decreasing ur Tyre pressure.. let's 36 to 32 to 28 etc.. n c what's best..

I got told to run stockies wif 225/50 put down to 16-17psi.. do little burnout to warm up ur tyres...

yeh i have 16-17in stockies off an s14 i think. wouldnt know how much roughly a pair of slicks are? i have HKS adjustable coilovers, could i myself fiddle around with them to make it squat more? not really clued up much in the suspension side of things.

[Mr_GaZZa]

I was in my 2003 350z

Anyone else know of 350z 1/4mile times?

LOL I had to launched from Idle... If I even tried to take off above that it'd just tramp and spin :S

my best time that night was a 14.240 @ 160.6kph

reaction time 0.690 (slowest lol)

and 60' time was 2.367 on that pass (not quickest though)

[SKYRYAN]

ride the clutch as you take off, get under 2 second 60' and you're laughin

[s13-steve]

i couldn't get below 2.3 for my 60 times, with the 18's it either bogged down or spun and smashed limiter

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Drag racing street cars isn't as easy as you'd think, took me many passes to get any decent times.

[s13-steve]

my dads STOCK standard auto FG XR6 turbo did a 13.1!!!

[Mr_GaZZa]

thats unfair!

probably because its auto and stock suspension helps
