Track Time

[KawaFord]

Ran at the track tonight.

Best run was a

14.851 -1/4
.629 - R/T
2.273 - 60'

Couldn't get traction at all.

Mods are 7" Open Cone, ZZP PCM.

I was running against a 2001 Stock 2 Door GTP

Not too bad a time for basically stock. I've got a Comp G and all I have is an open cone, no tune and I've run 14.51 so far.

Nope, my launches were all total garbage.. couldn't get under a .6 r/t

I believe I could of got 14.6 14.7 with better tires/launch.


Considering it was my 1st time at the track with a FWD car.

14.6-14.7 is definitely reasonable with a bit better launch. That is pretty impressive for almost stock. Reaction time does not matter.

Yeah I know, but I still would like a better R/T.

This track has changed since the last time I been there, so it's allot different.

I got videos, but they look like crap due to a crap camera, so I'm not even going to bother putting them up.

I had fun though, it's a whole different world launching FWD on the track VS RWD.

you got beat by a stock gtp.


looks like the zzp tune did not do much for you.


pretty good times tho

Nice for stock...I ran that with a intake/u-bend delete with no tune...can't believe you got a ZZP PCM after hearing all the bad crap about it...but oh well...its your car.

pcm was free, I like it.

You'll like it until you find parts of your piston in the oil pan.

 

[blowfishRus6]

he beat you to the light.


look at the slip, LEFT first. he tree'd you and got to the lights first. he won

He had a faster R/T yeah.

I wasn't trying to beat anyone, I was trying for a good time.

But I was faster in the 1/4, that's a win to me.

Maybe if it was heads up, then yeah, I would of lost.

I'll let you know when I do.

the other guy still got there first


work on the 60's and the times will come down some

Without a change in tires, 60's are going to be crap.


When I start working again, stuff will be different :th_thumbsup-wink:

 

[blowfishRus6]

yes tires do help, but ive gotten better 60"s with slick street tires (which suck for the track, they dont grab) with no burn out, just roll up to the line and go.
