I'm thinking about going up to Lancaster again on Saturday (if the weather holds up). NYIRP is a 1.5 hour drive for me...I'll think about it.

well, NYIRP opens up next week...weather permitting. I'll check it out.
And I was talking to my dept manager at work today and showed him my slips (he races F-bods) and he said I should do some bracket racing with how consistent my times are. I'll definitely consider it.

Just got back, got 6 runs in today
Just ET's & mph for now, I'll scan slips later.
Code:
Run 1: 11.0101 @ 64.00
Run 2: 11.0658 @ 64.47
Run 3: 11.1149 @ 64.09
Run 4: 11.1451 @ 64.48
Run 5: 11.2440 @ 64.74
Run 6: 11.2321 @ 63.91
first run was at just about 1pm, and the last at about 4pm. It was getting warmer as the day went on. I'm going to need some tricks to keep my air colder. Without spending money on mods, I doubt I'll be breaking into 10's this year...unless there's a free session on an unusually cold day. (free as in open...I still pay $15 to git in the pit.)
my best Reaction today was .5709.

decent times for the 4 banger, and really consistent.
with my six i was all over from 10.3 to 10.6 and it wasnt steady with temperature or humidity change.
but i still did pretty good, and won more money than i spent in entry fees.
i say keep it up

well, I'm doing my brakes today, and the shift kit when it shows up. I'm not sure if my car will be put together before points start. I'm thinking of saving my money and race next year. ($$$ is a bit tight now...I shouln't have even bought all the poop I did with my refund...that didn't last too long. lol)
oh yeah, deadline for signing up for the points was back in March, so it's no go this year anyway.

just dont launch at high revs with the shift kit, you'll develop problems quickly.
i dont remember what the stall is, but launch well below it.

Gimme a hollar next time you go out to Lancaster bro, I'll meet ya there....it's about 15-20 mins from my house. I wouldn't mind letting my ride stretch her legs one time before she gets sold or traded in. :cheers:

d'oh! I forgot to let y'all know I was going again.
fastest r/t was .497 RED LIGHT. Damn it!!!! (Then I sneezed halfway down the track and the e/t was 0.6 (yes, point six) slower than all my other times. WORST RUN right there.
4 runs
RT::ET @ mph
run 1
.6081::11.0478 @ 64.39
Run 2
.6690::11.0389 @ 64.47
Run 3 (round 1 elimination...win)
.5319::11.0351 @ 63.82
Run 4 (the sneeze...f***ed me running Round 2 elimination...loss)
.4979::11.6170 @ 55.97
hey, I just remembered. It was quite a bit warmer out today than my other runs. My other runs were consistent with 11.11-ish. Today I ran with the shift kit. If I run on a colder day, I can get into the 10's.

short ram intake, borla camaro-style muffler, B&M shift plus, 17" motegi MR7 wheels and intrax lowering springs.
the wheels and springs don't do much for the speed, but 17" wheels have tires that are slightly smaller in diameter so there's a little help in the acceleration, and the springs help in reducing wheel hop.
and using those 1/4 mile & horsepower calculators, I'm getting about 155hp at the crank, if my car weighs 3200 pounds. (3000 for empty car, me = 180, quarter tank is about 20)
