First 1/8th Mile Runs

[Fuzz420]

Hey guys thought i'd share my runs from the 1/8th mile at the Louisville Supra Meet. My first runs at the track ever, i had fun. Drove the car 60miles one way raced, drove it home.


This was my first one.
Left Lane
.5911--reaction--.0738
2.5494----60 ft---1.5880
6.6916---330 ft---4.8857
9.3561-et@594 ft-7.1485
9.9121---1/8 et---7.6518

The right lane was some randome AWD Eclipse but he was bookin with slicks on all 4corners

Next run vs a random 5.0
Me on right:
.1305--reaction--.6184
2.0979----60 ft---2.3681
6.0758---330 ft---6.3324
8.7341-et@594 ft-8.9557
9.3270---1/8 et---9.5067
75.90--1/8 mph--81.66
This was my best run

At this point i made some "adjustments" to fuel. Lost a couple mph

This last two are against stretch in his SC 300

10.1790---1/8 et---10.0637
69.69--1/8 mph--78.55
The last one with stretch was close. I wheel hopped so hard on the launch my cd players face fell off, so i shift to second early and play rundown.

I had a blast out there running with the guys.Just some ol fashion fun. All runs were on full tire pressure 15psi and a terrible tune. I slipped the clutch hard on launch no dumping(w-58)

Tomorrow Dyno numbers

Nice. Good numbers for first time out.

Thanks man, i didnt know what to expect.Seems like a good start

Congrats Fuzz. I remember the first time I ever ran a 9.0 at our local eighth mile track. The guy ran out of paper and I didn't get a copy of it. I was soooo pissed. To date, my best is a 7.91 @ 95mph. I hope to improve on it at Texas in a couple of months, but we'll see.

Thanks Jay. They gave me tons of slips, but the thin paper wouldnt let me scan them and my camera woudlnt photo them:: angry ::What setup did you run the 7.91 with? I hope to get down in the 8's but i need the driver mod bad:nono:

 

[supraturbotimmy]

7.91 @ 95 with all your hp makes me very happy with my 8.5 @ 89.77 damn i gotta get mine on the rolllers and find out exactly what she's kicking out now

This was last march at Texas and I was making between 470 and 485rwhp. I haven't raced it yet at six hundred. I tried to at Import face off in NOvember, but I broke my R154....I had to drive it home two hours with no second gear. Aaron, your car will run eights easily. You just need some sticky tires and a little more rpm at launch. I got Vonda's automatic to run a couple 8.60's and she's only making close to three hundred if I had to guess.

 

[Fuzz420]

Awesome so you ran basically with only 50 more horses and your high 7's.That brings things into perspective cause i have no idea how fast im supposed to be running. So i can cut a whole second off my time which is plenty of room for improvement. Hopefully this summer ill the extra money for some drag radials and a tune. I bet Vonda's car is making around 350rwhp, your so used to 450+ on pump you forget what 300's feel like

 

[suprahero]

Actually now I'm used to six hundred on pump. I've ran this 22psi for about six months now with a Snow's performance kit and 93 octane.

When you get you some new tires, don't buy the Nitto 555r's. Go straight for the Mickey Thompson ET streets. They're a way better tire and I leave mine on full time now. Street tires are useless at anything over 550rwhp.......or at least my Goodyear Eagle F1's were. I love the MT et streets though. Good luck Aaron.

 

[Fuzz420]

LOL @ 600 hp your a mad man

Thanks for the advice Jay :bigthumb:
