My car is 1 second faster
 

Yes, you heard it first, like MTV news. All my time and effort dropped a second off my last best time of 15.2xx at 94.5 mph. My new best is 14.263 @ 99.99mph. And the rest of the runs were pretty much consistenly 14.5's in the mid 90's with one other 14.276 run @ 94.63mph.

I need more power up top to rev higher, and my launches all sucked ass except for that fastest run, but as I recall I was wheel hopping very badly anyway, so I don't know wth it is. I tried dropping tire pressure to about 23 psi and that reduced the hopping alot, but didn't improve 60 foots at all.

Fun, and now I need that bigger turbo.

there's a local guy here with a supra inside a 1st gen ford probe body. he's somewhere in the 9's but he should have done it with some class. what's the point of a ford probe that you can't drive on the street? Nothing, i tell you.

No wonder you think Aaron's 16g is so fast. But congrats on the numbers!

congrats

Now you're on that financial downward spiral. ;)

You mean college?

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

No wanting to go faster.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

Yeah, but while in school? I'm gonna be extra broke.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

I ran a 15.3 consistently bone stock, a best of 15.1
I am hoping to go to the track next week and see whats up, if i judge by the people i have ran against, i would say high 13s is where i am at.
Congrats cromie. Now get that bigger turbo on there and put up some better times.

Congrats chromepuff.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

What kinda turbo are you thinking about?

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

You are too late. He has a new one already. I won't spill the beans though.

Congrats on the times! Very fast traps, I'm inpressed!

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

yeah, my next best speed was 99 flat on a 14.333 run. I was very happy with the high speeds. I think with a solid launch (like with slicks) I could get a 13.9 with perfect shifting etc.

and hksenilyks76, to answer your question - it's a big one.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

that probe with the 2jz was built by DaveH wasn't it? of NA-T supra fame?

at least i think thats where his setup ended up.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

Matt Faul is the driver, but yes, DaveH was the builder.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

low 15's huh? i hope thats what i can hit with my stock car.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

I forgot to mention that there was a "bone stock" 1g there. It was an auto with a boost controller and 111 leaded. :) brake boosting and manually shifting, the guy managed a 14.7 at 94mph I think. Pretty good, and he's selling it for 1500. I want to buy it.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

Don't get an auto, they are always broken.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

why auto are akways broken?

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

They are fine if you build them up correctly, stock autos can't take alot of power or abuse.

Re: My car is 1 second faster
 

I'm almost stock and hoping to run to Rock Falls soon to run the car... but i'm worried what i'll run. 14b is very healthy, so i hope to see some good times.
