First time at the track!

[2543arvin]

Well, I went to the track last night, to see if all the money Ive spent was worth it. Come to find out, the power was there, its just that I dont know how to drive just yet. Here are the results:

Reaction-1.24
60ft-2.09
330 ft-5.88
1/8 et-8.87
1/8 mph-81.65
1/4 et-13.57
1/4 mph-103.43

That was the best run of the night, and it was my first, after that I couldnt chase down that time again. The car would just keep spinning, even with drag radials. My mechanic said that I may have to ease on the throttle and not dump it, but I didnt get a chance to, cause we left. The shitty thing was that everyone else with this trap speed, were laying down 12.9s all night long, so I guess I got some work to do.

Not bad.. Not too bad on your 60', with it being your first time, either!

I ran a 13.63 about the same trap speed, But you have drag radials!!!! i did mine in street tires, Were you heating up the tires real good???

how many psi? and what mods!

great numbers :biglaugh:

Well, I was trying to heat up the tires but, I couldnt keep the car stopped. It kept wanting to creep forward on me.

All my mods can be seen in my gallery, but basically the power mods are:

57 trim ct @ 15 psi
550s
lex afm
walbro fp
FMIC w/ 2.5 piping
3.5" dp
2.5 catback

I have other stuff, like forged pistons and rods, but they are irrelevant in making more power. Hopefully when I figure out how to launch, I can get into the low 13s or high 12s with this setup. I also need to get this setup tuned.

That's pretty close to what my stock cammed 1JZ did on street tires

If you're spinning your slicks, heat them up some more, and you'll drop that time down a ton.

And get rid of the 2.5 exhaust

That's pretty close to my 1/4 mile. I ran a 13.24 @ 112mph, but I'm having some traction problems as well. My best 1/8 was 8.24 @ 84.77 mph. with a 1.856 60'. My runs were on Nitto 555r's as well.

I love your reaction time.............
Never wait for the last light to turn green. You should already be in the process of moving before it changes. Just my two cents worth.
