First time at the track tonight

[Fondle]

this is my first time ever to even go to a track,it was fun overall and had a good time, my times are alright, for some reason i still couldnt get traction even though i had slicks and i burned out for a good amount of time anyways my best run was

Reaction: .1189
60ft: 2.34
330ft: 6.54
1/8: 10.1
1/4:15.40
mph:90.84

i forgot my tire pressure gauge, so i think thats why i couldnt get traction because they were pretty stiff ad seemed to be around 30psi

Well; it was your first time at the track so you can't expect good numbers. With some practice you could get 14s in 1/4 tho.

manual?

Re: First time at the track tonight

dont expect good times your first time, i just went for the first time last Wednesday and ran a 14.9 @ 95 mph with a 2.5 60. My mods are full bolt-ons and a 100 shot on slicks. I should be in the mid 13's lol. And btw manuals suck to launch i even have a line lock and they still suck.

Re: First time at the track tonight

ya its a manual and no lsd

Re: First time at the track tonight

well thats your problem then, i dont even see the point in running a good DR if you dont have LSD. your 60 is going to be pretty much junk no matter what.

Re: First time at the track tonight

ouch, i know this, i have been looking for one, its just a good start to see how i progress

Re: First time at the track tonight

Fondle do you have any suspension work done yet? upgrading your shocks and tuning up your rear end with an adj. panhard/lca's/relocation brackets could help your 60' too.

but definitely look into a lsd and gears to get that thing moving---you've got 14's with some fine tuning and practice.

Re: First time at the track tonight

o have the eibach pro kit, thats the only suspension i have, this was just a baseline run, so i can see how each piece helps after i add it, i have been looking for aluminum driveshaft and a rear end but no luck locally

Re: First time at the track tonight

upgrade those shocks and lca's w/ brackets to go along with your springs and you'll notice a difference
