  • 15.24@91 w/ issues

    haha, my camaro is a bear at the track. I'll post a link to the time slip once my digital camera batteries get charged.

    2.23 60'
    9.79 1/8 th
    70.79 1/8 mph
    15.2437 1/4
    91.00 1/4 mph

    I bounced of the rev limiter on the 1-2 shift and the 2-3 shift on that run.

    I had a mph best of 91.35 on a 15.31 run. But I
    was struggling launching and it seemed to lay down once I shifted to 2nd. But it didn't act that way if I bounced it off the rev limiter. I'm kinda thinking my clutch may have been slipping, b/c it seemed to get worse later in the day.

    Oh and I ran 13.08 @ 109.48 in my TA. My brother was mad b/c I was faster in both cars than he was. His best in my cars were 13.26 and 15.40.

      I care :D

      If you stop bouncing off the limiter sounds like your 14s on a good run!

      as far as the V8? 12s look like they're sittin there too!

              Looking good, just work on that launch and bring those 60's down and the et's will get quicker.
              Also shifting perfectly is important, but I'm an auto guy so what do I know [img]smile.gif[/img]

                get rid of that raised airbox garbage (no offence), and get an SLP or fast toys ram air package. I tried both, and the ram air package works MUCH better.

                  Yeah, its way harder to launch than my TA. I was able to get it to "hop" or surge off the line but it would end up bogging on me. It was my first time to the track w/ her(only my second time ever at the track).

                  navyblue - yeah, I don't kare for the ghetto raised airbox either. I was going to get a ws6 lower air box at some pt. And do a neat free ram air trick. Maybe I'll go back to the track sunday, hopefully w/ a few changes.

                  &lt;edit&gt; Oh here's a sweet pic of me launching my TA on a 13.14 @ 109.78 run: http://home.att.net/~khandlon/keith_launch.jpg

                    That is a good et, but the reaction time isnt great. Oh well, does r/t really affect your et at all though? Anyone?

                      RT does not affect your ET, but if your racing, then RT is included in deciding who wins.
