It was at Grand Bend Motorplex and it was my first time at a track.
First 2 runs were bad...15.2 and 15.7. I was on street tires with 35psi in them, I spun bad on those 2 runs since I tried to launch. Went back to the pits...set tires@25psi and took out the air filters. No launch this time...walked it out.
R/T... .542
60'...2.16
330...6.01
1/8...9.206@76.55
990...11.95
1/4...14.315@96.42

 

I have some Nitto DRs but have no rims for them or money to get my other ones mounted on them. They guy I purchased it from said his best was 13.79@102 with the Nittos. I know it atleast ran a 13.87@98.49 since he showed the video. So what do you guys think? Should it have enough in it to run a high 13 with the Nittos? Keep in mind I could actually launch with them at about 2-2500rpm.

 

good times, thats L98 Territory

 

did you buy your car from a guy named Bob in Windsor?


Grand Bend also has racing on wednesday nights, cheaper, like 10 or 15 bucks (i actually have some coupons that make it only $5) and less people there. they dont glue the track very much though.

 

No, I bought from a guy named Rob in Saginaw lol. I would have rather went on Wednesday, but my brother just had to go on Friday since it was clear. Last time we went it got rained out before we got there .

 

yeah i am gonna try to go this wednesday before ball hockey and get some passes in.

 

Yeah, that was my car. I owned it for 9 years before I sold it to Rob. Apparently he didn't hang onto it for long.
I used to run it on Nitto's for a few years. The last year I had it I was using ET Streets. They were great, hooked awesome.
Always ran high 13's with the ET Streets.

Bob

 

i thought it was Bob. the times and mods sounded exactly like yours.

by the way, i am hoping to use the ET streets tomorrow....what PSI did you find worked best? big or small burnout? (small i hope).

 

You don't need a big burnout. Just see some smoke and roll it out. I found 18 psi worked good for me. Didn't go any lower because it hooked good with 18, probably could have went higher.
Let me know how you make out.

Bob

 

thanks Bob, i will try 18-20 and see what works. i will let you know how she went. they dont glue the track much on wednesday at GB, but the posi i put in and the tires should make alot of difference in the 60ft times.

 

Darbleinad, my brother might be going up there again tomorrow. He has a red 91 Talon TSI...should be in the 14s. Let me know if ya see him. What times do you expect run? If he does go, I'll tell him to be on the look out for an 84 T/A.

 

well i should run around 13.8.....but we will see....anyway....low 14s for sure.

opps...i forgot to mention...my car is a crappy looking, silver one w/ t-tops.
