Re: CRX HF vs GSXR 750
Unconfirmed passes at 12.9 at 119, and they requested he come back with a helmet or something...lol... Confirmed times to follow, Wes isn't here yet.
Confirmed...
12.900 at 113 with lowered tire pressure....
&
12.942 at 119 was his last run...He said they will have the videos up by Monday or so.
I was not there, this is what Wes told us this morning at work...He reported he got to run like 5-6 times.
First pass was a 13.3 at 109 with Joseph riding along also...No tune and tire pressure regular, Just for fun..."he says"

Re: CRX HF vs GSXR 750
First run was 2.2 60', 13.6 @ 109 on 9 psi, he makes 270 whp. "Get a helmet and lose the passenger." Tuenarboi exits stage left.
Then Wes dropped air pressure on the BFG drags and started keying the high boost.
Second run was 2.3 60', 13.7 @ 117 on high boost 340 whp.
Third run, 13.0 @ ~115 (~ means I don't remember exactly)
Fourth run 2.1 60', 12.9 @ 119
Fifth Wes ran his best 60', and 1/8th. A lower 2.1x 60, and 8.60 @ 92. Car kept popping in + out of VTEC the last half of the track, so he only ran 12.9 @ 114 mph. The last half of the track is where he usually keys the high boost + sprays, so if everything had gone down right it would have been a hell of a run.
We have videos of everything except the first run.
SSAC turbo now smokes a little. Doh!
Wes did really well, kept dropping his times consistently. Stock 250K mile suspension with a set of drag springs + blown rear shocks, and a screwy gearbox you have to fight to get in gear. Funny how everybody dumbestic sees video of the race against the bike and screams how the shiny new 3000 mile bike owner "did something wrong." Never occurs to them that it's really Wes doing something incredibly right.

It's being uploaded to HMT fileserver right now.
Links will not be valid in a day or two - Jason at Redline is mixing a sweet video compliation of Wes footage, when it's ready I'll delete the two files and substitute the polished video. Save these now, though, as the video will be at a reduced resolution for storage reasons. Jeff Frank is a real weenie, only wants 50 Mb per staff member. :P
