Im sooo close I can taste it. and it tastes like chicken! yummm
Well, I finally got around to timing my car at the track tonight. Many of u may know my goal for my car was to hit 12.9 @ over 110mph on BFG Drag radials w/ full interior and stock motor. and i am sooooooooooooo close.
I borrowed arts BFG's to run tongiht(THANKS ART!) and set the boost to .85bar. I left everything in the car, even the my 40lb bag of tools. The car wieghed in at an unusually heavy 2750lbs. it wieghed 2650 when i ran my old best time on 8psi.
my first pass of the night looked like this:
60ft 2.123
330ft 5.773
1/8 8.668
mph 86.63
1/4 13.199
mph 109.87
I was happy. at that point I knew the car had potential for 12's. So i try again
and again.
and again.
and then i have what would have been my best pass of the night and probably my 12sec pass. it looked like this
60ft 2.036
330ft 5.576
arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I put it in 3rd and it just popped out
damn tranny
1/8 8.710
mph 81.70
1/4 13.391
mph 107.56
yeh so i put that 330mark in bold to compare it w/ my 330mark on my best clean pass of the night. heres my best pass of the night.
60' 2.047
330ft 5.659
1/8 8.550
mph 86.61
<U>1/4 13.089
mph 109.99</U>
DAMN! so if it didnt pop out of 3rd I would have had my 12.9.
ahhh well, im still happy. 
im especially glad theres still room for improvement. just thought id let u guys know what ive been up too lately.

So close! Don't worry you'll break into the 12's soon enough, i'm impressed with your trap speed! Any chance you'll be in the Houston area for thanksgiving weekend? I'm heading down there to visit some relatives so hit me up if you'll be in the area.

Chris! Awesome runs! Man that is so close to a 12. You basically trapped 110 like you wanted (109.99 close enough 
). Bring your 60' down to a solid 2.0 and you should see a 12.99.
I'm probably going to the track soon. Let's see who's first to break into the 12s! hehehe..

Re: Im sooo close I can taste it. and it tastes like chicken! yummm (boostaholic)
thanks guys. 12's is my goal, im almost there I just hope I dont blow my motor before my next track visit hehe.
boostaholic- Sorry I wont be in the houston area over thanksgiving. I may make a trip down there soon though cause last night was the last night our track was open till feb 2nd. and I want my 12 damnit haha.
LSdelsol- yeh, 2750 is overwieght for integras. I didnt know I was going so I went down w/ 3/4 tank of gas and I didnt have a car to put my tools an stuff in so I just ran w/ them. I can get the car down to 2620 on a diet.
