I ran at West Texas Raceway again at a big heads up street car race, same track I ran at last weekend. This race was at night so the air was a lot better. The only time i checked the air it was 4700' DA with 50-60% humidity which is very high humidity for West Texas. I had all the weight out of the car, the Nitto's on at 16psi, fronts at 40psi...Last weekend i was launching at 3000 and the tires were hooking to early in the power band so I raised the launch up to 3500 this weekend. Heres the results:
Run 1: TT
8:02 PM
60': 2.0845
330: 5.9495
1/8: 9.1551
mph: 77.11
1000': 11.8909
1/4: 14.229
mph: 96.53
after this pass i was pissed because this still wasnt as quick as i had been just on my street tires. I didnt get a good burnout adn the tires spun pretty bad
Run 2: TT
9:00 PM
60': 1.8775
330: 5.6505
1/8: 8.8209
mph: 78.15
1000': 11.5149
1/4: 13.8281
mph: 97.44
This pass the motor was really cold so i decided to pull the belt and see if it actually works. By the times you can see it works real well!!!! I was so dang pumped and also amazed at how much removing the belt picked me up!!! I know now that a Meziere electric water pump is definately in the future!
Run 3: Eliminations
11:04 PM
60': 1.9143
330: 5.6905
1/8: 8.8550
mph: 78.14
1000': 11.5635
1/4: 13.8911
mph: 96.96
The humidity was getting worse and the track was beginning to go away from all the street cars running but this pass confirms that the 13.82 was not a fluke. the belt was off
Run 4: Finals
1:20 AM
60': 1.9209
330: 5.7435
1/8: 8.9189
mph: 78.06
1000': 11.6517
1/4: 14.0023
mph: 96.11
I was dog tired here and probably didnt shift as hard as i normally do. There was a wreck so the track was shut down for a long time. The humidity was even higher and the track was getting crappier and crappier but I won the 6 cylinder class. The closest car was a Nissan 350Z running low 15's-high 14's. It sucked there were only 5 in the class but I still won. the belt was off
It was awesome running 13's out there w/the little six. SO many people were really impressed and I was out running a lot of Mustangs and even some LS1's. Next weekend im running at a different track that is about 1000' lower in elevation. Hopefully ill run some quicker times if the track is any good. Ill post the results!!
