New bests N/A!!!!!

[12secondv6]

OK, well you all know I'm an auto. converter and nitrous person......

Well, I busted out the SEXY neon today!

<--- can't really drive manual, but I'm getting better.

Well, it hit 1000 miles last night so.... it was broken in.

2004 neon SXT 5 speed 132 hp.
Race weight 2785 pounds
W/o driver..... 2566 :D

I made 7 passes today.
3 dial ins and I made it 4 rounds. On the 4th run I broke out... but hit a new best
16.974 at 84.35
16.922 at 84.39
16.889 at 83.00
17.179 at 81.45
17.020 at 82.96
16.969 at 83.44
16.844 at 83.45

Rear tire psi was 42
Front tire psi.... I never checked until I left for the day. Front psi was 36 which explained why I consistently spun off the line.

On the 17.1 run I missed 3rd :(

60's: worst 2.886
best 2.702

I REALLY need to work on my 60's

I won my first trophy with the neon :D

FWDs are a ***** to launch and get good 60 footers on without wheelspin if they got any real power behind em.

[3.4 slow to go]

non-super charged fwd cars are easier to launch ;)
best run stats:
R/T .521
60' 2.206
330' 6.445
ET @594' 9.323

1/8 MPH 70.42
1/4 ET 15.520
1/4 MPH 88.04

James, want to borrow a fast stock fwd car, it's a Poncho too so you can drive & be seen at the same time [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

You know James, you could improve you ET and add 50 more hp if you put a Type R sticker on it. :D

FWD 5spd...and I still could have done better.

1st tiem at track with fwd or 5spd.

I'm now conviced that your spinning problem is driver error [img]tongue.gif[/img] . You always spinning the bird, now your spinning a neon, you just can't launch ;) [img]smile.gif[/img]
