Thread: Awsome night at the dragstrip. T25 setup

Well i had a great night at the strip being nothing broke and car ran great. traction was an issue but the track was gripping pretty good which made for decent launches but still spun through 1st and 2nd gear.

All passes were done on Falken Zeix's 195's set at 18psi and runs were made with 3/4 tank of gas. Boost was at 8psi because i cant turn it up any more with the 370cc injectors at stock fuel pressure. Bigger injectors are next so i can up it to 15-16psi. My first run i babied it through and didnt do a burnout just to get a feel how things would go. ran a 13.7@110mph

Every pass after that was 13.1-13.2 @109-110mph except my final pass i made.
Final pass was a 13.06@109mph Here are the slips. I will post up two vids from my friends phone being i forgot my video camera at home.









Let me know what you think. This is with the setup in my sig.

Good times. I ran 14.3 at 100 but I'm running untuned and pig rich. I also have an exhaust leak where the header bolts to the head. Also no tread left on my tires, so under those circumstances 14.3 is good. Your 13.0 is great.

Oh so close to 12's!!!! Glad you had a good time man. I'm bad into drag racing lol. It's addictive.

I love it. This is the first time in almost 3 years that ive actually gone and had a good clean night with several runs. I was very happy. Yeah i wanted to hit a 12 and prob could have gotten that 12.9 but someone broke on the track and it was already past 10pm and i had already been up for 39 hours straight due to work and track wait time because i misread their schedule. the track is 3 hours away from where i live so its kinda hard. when i lived in texas the track was 40 min away at worst and i would go almost every weekend. I love it. And yes its very addicting.

Your running at Firebird right?

Sucks being so far away from the track, man. They're building/finishing a new track about 10 minutes or less from the house, in East El Paso. If you wanna come run on a 100% concrete track, hit me up sometime. I'll give you a place to crash.

EDIT: Good times, though!

thanks tekkie, veilside im running at speedworld. ive heard firebird was a better track but they are a lot busier than speedworld. i wanted to get as many passes as i could since i dont go very often. i didnt even rush inbetween passes. just parked for a bit and checked over things before each run.

damn that is some awesome times.!!!!! cant wait to get my car dun

just coz im noob was this dun with the s13 or b13?

it was done with a b13 with an s13 turbo and manifold setup

here are a couple vids guys, The race against the evo mr running 23psi of boost. was a 13.2 run at 110mph i beat him because i had a better reaction, his trap speed was 106 mine 110. the slip is posted, third one down the page. The race against the supercharged ford focus was a 13.1 sec run @ 109mph That slip is posted as well, the last one on the page. he ran a 13.7. Sorry the vids dont have sound for some reason, they were taken with my friends phone. oh well next time i will have good vidoes taken from my camera.

Nice runs. As a fellow drag junkie, your reaction times are great. I am always happy with a .0**. Now, go put a tire on the car!
