Ran my car in the 1/8th just for ****s and giggles and got kicked off lol
So I went to the track just for ****s and giggles today. Didnt even really go with a crew. Just rolled out there right when they opened the gates before the crowd got there. I got four runs in before they kicked me off the track
!
^^Got there at about 6 (30min drive). Went strait to the line since no cars were there. With no burnout or anything just lined up. It was pretty cool cause its rare that you get to run down the track back to back by yourself. The boost here was low boost (16lbs) and I didnt launch the car at all since I wanted to get a feel for the car on the track. Light went green I took off regular and then floored it.
^^Turned right back around after getting my slip from the booth and went strait back to the tree no cool down. This time I actually launched the car but the clutch started to slip in second so I let off and coasted through the lasers.
^^Parked the car for a bit to let it cool down and to go watch some of the few other cars there who were running. Came back after turnin the boost controller off cause 16lbs was making the clutch slip and ran again. Notice the 2mph trap drop. I launched the car here but not really cause I was scared the clutch would slip again so I kinda babied it out the hole.
^^I turned right back around after this run and went to the tree with the wastegates 14.5psi (the boost controller off) and ran this. Car felt good with no clutch slipping so I tried to launch it. I got to the time booth and the guy asked me if I had a helmet. I said no why? and he said you need a helmet if your going to be running 8's or lower. I just left after that. Getting kicked off the track felt good! 8.8's with a possible 8.4-8.5 with a 2.0-1.960ft is pretty good for 14lbs of boost! I wanted to see what high boost would do. But that probably wouldve FRIED my clutch. I didnt do a burnout for any of these runs. I love how you can see the whole story if you know how to read timeslips
I had a good time. I will swap my pressure plate out oneday. Its a 6 puck unsprung clutchnet with the clutchnet green pressure plate. Itll hold on the street with street tires but loading the tranny with the BFG drag radials makes it slip.
