Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

The car is already tuned. I said that back on post number 38. I am just waiting to get back to the track now. The tune was done with HP Tuners buy a hardcore GM guy i know. We ended up pulling it about 9 times on the dyno.

here's the dyno sheet again.

Its not coming up for me, what kind of power were you making on the dyno?

Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

The fact that you were only trapping 80ish mph tells me you must've had some SERIOUS kr or something along the way. That is incredibly low mph even for a stock car.

You should be trapping atleast 10mph quicker than that (being an auto)

MPH is essentially how much power your cars making...

When we started it was 155rwhp when we were finished it was 195rwhp and 201ftlb on the best run of the day.

Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

well at the track you are trapping low 80s...


My 3.4L trapped 86 mph... And that was bolt 3.4L v6... yes the one that comes with 160hp, and maybe put 130-140 to the wheels with mods

My 3.8L trapped 90ish stock, and with my getto mods was trapping 95ish Stock heads, cam, intake, and exhaust manifolds.


Your car is not making power, my guess.... tuning issue, and you have knock.

Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

Oh, well go back and rip on it :)

Should be 14s no problem if it's tuned now.

Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

Ok this time i swear i am going back to the track. I am headed back on the
16th with my fiance and a couple friends. I am so looking forward to this i have been waiting forever to go back. Only five days to go. One of my buddies that is going has an 86 camaro that he wants to run, i am looking forward to seeing it go down the track.

Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

Just got back from the track. New times are as follows


First pass

R/T............ .382

60'............. 2.890

330............ 8.374

1/8............. 12.321

MPH............ 65.60

1000........... 15.450

1/4............. 18.058

MPH............ 86.20

The first pass i spun a for about half of the first 60 feet had to let off and then get back on it.


Second pass

R/T............ .646

60'............. 2.197

330............ 6.306

1/8............. 9.967

MPH............ 72.98

1000........... 12.618

1/4............. 15.130

MPH............ 89.24

This pass i didn't get the rpms up high enough before the green. That and the guy was waving at me to put on my seatbelt so i wasn't paying close attention to the car.

Third pass

R/T............ .417

60'............. 2.263

330............ 6.427

1/8............. 9.872

MPH............ 71.81

1000........... 12.818

1/4............. 15.345

MPH............ 88.61

and on this pass i apperently did not do a good enough of a burn out in the box, cuz when i launched i had some tire spin.

And that was all i got in. Kinda depressed i couldn't get anymore runs in but i had to go home and do some things around the house. Let me know what you guys think. I figure i can get in to the 14's no problem, i just have to get the launch down tight.

Oh ya and the last pass was agianst a freind of mine with a stock WRX That only had an exhaust. That was kool, i loved that one it was neck and neck all the way down. Oh ya and i won! HA HA HA HA HA

Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

a 2.0X 60' will put you in the 14s

[FloydSummerOf68]

Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

Is that second pass a typo? 82mph is really low.

Good times though, you'll have 14s with some more practice. Then just work on being consistant :)

Re: First time at the track and man am i depressed

Wow, those numbers don't sound right. I ran a 15.4 on a stock engine with exhaust and intake only on 3.42 gears, 18" wheels and 300 plus lbs. of stereo equipment. Can't wait to take it to the track on the supercharger and minus the stereo equipment.

Ya actually that was a typo, i cut and pasted from my very first post and then filled in the new times. I forgot to change that one. :o
