what does everyone approx be hittin with a motor like mine in a ef hatch??

 

little slow looks like the times i had with my mini me sedan. u still got the dx tranny?

 

You should definitely be in the mid to low 15's with that setup. Get those 60' times down to improve your et. I would say give the car a good tuneup and try again. What clutch and transmission are you running?

 

my a6 w/ I/h/e and gude cam, lightened oem flywheel and centreforce clutch did mid 15's w/ full interior.

 

yea its def. slower then it should be get those 60's down.

 

i did a 15.6 with a 2.2 60 ft and a 6-700 r/t with my sohc zc.

 

see im still new at this well on the track that is....i was lookin at the yellow light for a long time and like when it turned green i was like uhh...o **** its green and took off...i do have a 91 si tranny in there with a oem 93 si clutch stock flywheel any of you guys got any tips for me on launchin and blah blah? runnin obd-0 inkectors with obd-1 conversion done stock p28 i was told to launch at 2300

a gude cam? i was about to run a aem cam but i heard there is no differnce with a cam if you dont got cam shafts? correct me if im wrong

 

The et doesnt start until you actual start moving. The reaction time doesnt effect it.

 

launch at a point where the car dosent bog....try a bunch a different spots 2300 is prolly to low.

 

How do they time your rt anyway? I feel like a a tiny mistake in the rt can change your 1/4 et drastically.

 

thats tough good luck

reaction time wins races, doesnt get you low et's. work on your launch and shifts.

Reaction time doesn't count for your 1/4 mile time

60ft time could be slightly better though

 

O **** that was you?!?!?!?!?!?! the blue stock ef? they hella stopped your car on fire really fast.....i was there but i didnt bring my car around. that was pretty crazy.. but any chance did u see the gsx talon smoke the vett?

Anyways, yeah those times are low, but look at your trap speeds They're pretty accurate if you figure a 2.4 and a trap like that. What transmission are you using, if it's the DX that begins to make a bit more sense. Still I would think High 15s.. Who knows maybe your cars just slow

edited that for you.

keep opening these "track" threads... thinking, hey, maybe it's a REAL track.

nope, just "drag strip" thread.

 

i have a 91 si tranny on the motor and i dunno what is makin so bad times but yeah they did kill out the fire fast but yeah...im going next week again haha

 

yeah those times are truly horrible.

 

This makes me want to test my car.............but I'm afraid of breaking like the last few times.

Don't give up man, there is hope for you yet.

 

I pulled 10.4 1/8ths with 2.4 60fts with my stock ZC in my heavy *** ex, I launched at 3k, dumped, once it gabbed then slam the gas. I ran on crappier tires than you too, Uniroyal Tiger Paws, lol, they came with the car what can I say. work on your launch, you should hit 2.3's easy, then work on shifting faster. If you can launch and shift the rest is up to your motor.

 

when goin to the track, do they let u warm up ur car and test run it first?

see when i got there they do a inspectio test and i was asked to tie my battery down and everything cuz it wasnt tied..so now after i was done tiein it down i was ready to go run..but only thing that happend that day was that there was a oil spill that like caused a 2 hour delay and they didnt have test runs no more..so when i ran i guessed my dail in time and just ran..turned out that from what i read on h-t people be hittin 15's with the same motor and setup i have but i hit 16s with bad launch and first time runs..there is always hope i can hit better

 

makes me want to run mine I have d16y8 si tranny exhaust intake headder vafc act extreme clutch. the guy I got the car from ran 16.0 @84 mph. I think I can do better
