Sup guys..Today was first time at the track with the R at the california speedway. IMO the track is pretty decent. Never really been to others but it was lots of fun therefore I like the track. I met a couple R owners here and thats what made it alot offun. Well here is the best run I had for the day out of 4 runs. I can't seem to get good reaction times.. I just don't know what I'm really doing I guess, it keeps on getting worst every run. Let me know what you guys think, i don't really know the exact elevation but its 1000 something.

r/t .873

60ft 2.457

330ft 6.414

1/8 9.694

mph 74.42

1000ft 12.526

1/4 14.920

mph 94.99

i wasnt there, but i was in the parking lot at the scca autocross practice

i saw ann CW R goin hom on the 10 w, with carbon fiber hood and apex N1, anyone here????

 

i think that was the only R that didn't get talk with anyone. We saw him for a couple of minutes, but never got a chance to talk to him because we left for another run.

BTW Does anyone know of anysites where I can get an exact quarter mile time for sea leveL?

i was there, i was rollin a the s2k hardtop... pretty sad though, here are my best times for today... 14.678 and 14.782... dang i suck! where you the guy hanging out with the jdm converted py R? peace....

 

oh yeah how many feet above sealevel is fontana? i want a conversion site too!

 

i was hanging out with the JDM PY R but mine was the other R. heeh


tjtruong~wish i had a JDM front end

 

i was the one with jdm front.. i think that track was pretty cool.. ref's were pretty nice and it seemed to be a good turnout.. track is much cleaner then palmdale or carlsbad.. and you can get many more runs at fontana that you would at the other tracks.. i was in line by 4:30 though..

anyhow about the results.. pretty sad.. its called i need to learn how to drive! my reaction time is very decent along with 60 foot but they could always be better.. from 4 runs i did the conclusion is that i shift like a grandma from gear to gear.. i thinks its beacuse i dont want to misshift by accident so i make sure i'm in gear before going into each one.. ran consisten 15.6 which is totally sad.. i thought that something was wrong with my car since tjtroung had an almost identical set up and he was doing like 14.9.. just kills me once we are about to get into 3rd gear.. so i let him drive my car and i drove his.. of course my shitty driving yields another sad 15.6 and he does 15 flat in mine with a .98XX reaction time! heheheh hey at least i know that the car is running great and i need to go more often to the track and practive my driving skills.

overall i'm happy that the car is doing good

 

WE still had FUN. Its all Good hybrid_eg....SEe ya tomorrow at Norms
