Default Went to the track for the first time with new setup on street tires ...

I got some good times out of the car and I am quite happy. The times ran consistant all night but I couldnt drop my 60 ft at all on these street tires ... But anyway the car is a 90 si hatch full interior (sunroof) and full weight only minus a/c. All night I ran consistant 11.91-11.96 (traps between 124.9-126.4 mph) but what sucked was no matter how much I heated the radials or reduced pressure, if I rode the clutch so it would hook my 60's wouldnt get out of 2.0's... I dunno guess I need more practice but I was happy with my consistantcy and I had fun. Cant wait to get it caged and race in some turbo 4 classes.

The radials are 225/50/15's ... The car is an 84mm Ls block with eagle/arias combo with crower valve-train in the head including turbo cams. I tach the motor to 8200 with my current low boost but looking to tach to about 9000 with about 30 psi for slicks

I am running Pheonix Turbo's "Blowzilla" it flows 65lb/min I believe ... I was running 18-19 psi on pump for these runs. I am going to get some engine shots up soon ... I will post them here and in FI forum.
