Re: first time at track, need help with slicks
Yeah man you have to beat the ---- out of an na car to get a good time. Some people don't even let of the gas when they shift. you just time it so you don't hit the rev limiter just hold the gas to the floor tap the clutch and shift. I though people were just trying to ---- with me when they said they did that but one day I tried it and pulled a better time.
And off the line I think your reving to high And doing a little sit n spin you have to be real carefull with your launch you have to get a feel for it your going to spin some but ever since it's na you can control it. Take of in first at around 4-5k and when it stops spinning and hooks up let the car pull through first before you shift to second.
then if you get a lot of runs in toy around with when you shift from third to fourth a lot of times if I rev third all the way out I actually get a slower times then shifting to fourth just a little early. because third will run out of gear and it will hurt your trap speed.
It all comes down to practice go every weekend for a few weeks and you'll get it down.
I meen you just need to practice because I get 2.1 60s in my close to stock 92 accord after the ok 60 it still runs a 16.4 but I have about half of my turbo setup together and in another month should have it done.
