Impossible??!! I pulled a 1.91 before with a front drive integra on stock michelin tires! Why is it so hard to believe i pulled a 2.0 60'? Im sure i couldve pulled even a better one if I wasnt so scared on breakin something. I thought posting my timeslip would show people my time was legit; instead im getting more disbelief?

13.2 @ 110

 

That sucks man!! But your crazy launching the car like that with D/r's What did you have done to the car??

 

Okay buddy! Now i know your full of S$IT, My boy with an str4 with a stage3 turbo and slicks got a 1.8 60' so for you to get a 1.9 60' you gotta have slicks or mind power of some kind!

 

You and your boy obviously must be some horrible drivers! On my turbo Integra I was pulling low/mid 1.7 60's. If you want I will post up that timeslip too! Just to show you how little you know about drag racing. Just cuz u never pulled good 60's doesnt mean that others cant. It just means you cant drive!

 

Your full of it!!!! Yeah, and i ran a 10.9 in the 1/4 with my old type r, with just exhaust!

 

F20milo and Red Bull,

I don't care to get involved in your pissing contest here, but I would like to throw out a little personal experience and get feedback from the both of you.

If you guys have read any of my other posts you already know that I pretty much suck at drag racing; I'm after trap speed, not ET, because I don't care to pound my cars driveline to prove a point. I just want to get a meaure of the power I'm making, and the trap speed gives me that information. I launch by doing a clutch dump at 6k and letting ther tires just spin like crazy, so my 60' times are horrible. I don't tweak tire pressures or anything else before doing a run. I just stage, rev, dump, smoke and go. The CTSC/AC and gears can't have much effect on my 60' time, becuse my tires are spinning constantly and it is grip (and they way I am using the available grip) that is the major factor in 60' time (is it not?). Well, with my crummy launches and low grip surfaces (roads, not a drag strip) I'm STILL getting 60' times around 2.24 seconds. Are either one of you telling me that it is not possible to shave a quarter second off that time with some tire pressure adjustment, and a better launch? If that's what you think, I think you are wrong, and would like to know why you don't think I could pick up a quarter second on a sticky strip with some tire pressure tweaking and a proper launch. Do you think that the 32 PSI I run in my back tires is that close to perfect, and that my crummy launch is so perfect that there is not a quarter second to be had, or are one of the two of you just full of crap?

Please educate me.

[QUOTE=RED MX5,Apr 28 2008, 01:55 PM] F20milo and Red Bull,

 

I can only speak for myself, but I'm certainly not lying.



Proof that this is on a relatively low traction surface can be seen in the peak G reading, which is, as you will notice, only 0.82 G's. I'm pretty sure there are plenty of strips that will deliver greater grip, even with my tire smoking launches.

I could be mistaken, but I think the thing that is going on here is that you're mistaken.

Am I going to have to try to repeat the run and video tape it to convince you?
