Man i went to the dragstrip in fayetteville, NC right...and first i was up beside a old skool charger humming at me. I was like mannn please dont run with me...later up the line an acura pulled beside me, i was like Yessss I got this!!! go we get up to the lite and i was sooo worried about gettin off the line fast and killing him out that i wasnt even lookin at the tree. so when we get off its neck and neck, i'm like dang cuz he's keepin up using his quick shift. so right that the end u couldnt tell who won. got my time sheet and he beat me by .200th of a second....i was pissed. looked at my reaction time i had a 1.2, i'm like wtf..... so hoping ill see him around and get a second chance to show him a real race =P
 


nope...cl-s a/t is the same as a new tl a/t, but a cl-s with just headers or a stock cl-s 6 speed would take out a stock new TL/lightly modded GTP. I'm running 14.4 1/4 mile @ 98mph. Lowest I've seen for other cars with my mods is 14.27 @ 98mph. What was your 1/4 time and what was the a/t TL's?




The TL M/T is about 2-3 car lengths faster due to gearing and lightweight. The regular TL M/T is actually faster then the TL-S A/T. TL-S M/T is no joke...equal to a IS350 from a roll and actually beats the bmw 335i and IS350 on the track

ouch. what is your 1/8? do you have a timeslip handy. im just wondering when you would start pulling back. if you could post all your times it would be cool.
60'
330'
1/8th-mph
1000'
1/4th-mph
 
I don't have the timeslip on hand cause my g/f threw it away:th_scratchhead: Even if I had it I wouldn't be able to post a pic...I'm at work lol

But anyways here is what I ran:

60' 2.3
1/8 9.4
1/8 77mph
1000' was 12.1
1/4 14.4
1/4 98mph

All these numbers are rounded since I don't have the timeslip:th_thumb-down:

I'll be ahppy to hit 14.0. My cold air intake is arriving tuesday. Then all I will get a crank pulley. If that doesn't help then I guess I'll need a throttle body spacer, plenums, and intake manifold spacer
 
2.170
6.072
9.375-75mph
12.219
14.662-92mph

my mph is down for my times tho. i blame that on an arching spark plug wire and mis gaped-to cold plugs. i think i could knock off a 14.4 or 14.3
 


I don't think so with just an intake. I got it more for sound. I would bet I only get 1-3whp. What I really need is some way better tires and pulley.

My top end is where it's at for me(completely opposite of the GTP). 3rd gear saves me in the 1/4 mile cause my third gears shifts into VTEC and tops out @ 105mph. My 4th gear is a joke...it shifts to 4000 instead of being at 5000 like in 3rd.

I wish you lived closer to me. We would be an awsome race. Everyone around here has stock GTP's, gay ricers, v8 camaro's/ws6, or just a bad ass exotic...not much at my level
 
yea i was thinking the same. would be alot cooler to settle it in person.

hell i dont get any races tho. just random burst of speed from a red light from random cars. had a brand new cadilac try to keep me behind them the other day. it was pretty weak tho. the mommy was hot tho :) when i find cool cars that i want to race i cant ever get them to race :( paced a 5.0 the other day for about 10 miles. he never did anything. he took off kinda fast from a red light and i was all over him. i guess he was all the way on it and dident want to get embarised. he passed me later down the road and gave me this eat **** look (d-bag) so i went flying past at the top of second with the supercharger screaming :)
 
lol sounds like what happens here. There is this one guy with a green gsr integra, everytime he see's me he wants to run. Its like "not you again":rolleyes: Ill let himget 2 or 3 cars ahead of me then fly past him with the s/c screaming..I love it best when he has his girl with him and her window is down :D she covers her ears and rolls the windows up lmao
