HMT @ the track last weekend ::Video::
 

Me, leia (princess) beau (blacksi) steve (88dx) decided to head down to woodburn this weekend. We planned on staying at Pat's house (BBKA) the night before. On our little venture to longview wash, Beau was towing his car in his new trailer with his dually mexican truck. Me and leia are in her H22 Civic in front and he calls me "dude my alternator light just came on... then click" I pull over and beau goes flying by blowing smoke everywhere. We pop the hood and the fucker is blowing coolant everywhere, the manifolds are glowing cherry ass red. I thought for sure the big block 454 was done! apparently the serp belt flew off. Luckly Beaus dad was on his way down and was able to grab some parts so we could fix it on the side of the road... Finally we get to pats house... Pat was in the middle of a 3 week tranny swap, HAHAHA ;D He was installing his Quaife LSD into his new Y8 Tranny. Got everything handled and all back together around 4am.

Track day... we met up with Johnny (random-strike) @ the track. Woodburn dragstrip is probably one of the nicest and most orginized tracks in our area. It was my first time racing there and I was very impressed.

Now the times..

Leia's H22 Hatch running NA 9.1 Pistons on a pretty "ya I think this will work tune" file loaded on the p28 ecu. I had brang an extra h23 downpipe so we could unbolt the 1 piece stock/dp exhaust system and run this thing open header. Well, I didnt know h23 downpipes were different than h22's so that didnt work out! >:( And there was no way in hell I was going to put on the stock exhaust, so we just ran the upper portion of the manifold hahaha, I figured it would be better this way then with the stock exhaust. But god, I really think it hurt performance..

14.72 @ 93.45mph on drag radials (2.2 60ft) - leia

14.62 @ 92.89mph on slicks (2.0 60 ft) - me

(the civic behind her car was a turbo h22 EG, he ran 14.9 and low 15's all day long.. LOL) ::)

Johnny had some serious charge pipe problems all day long, blowing them off like crazy. I let him borrow my really shitty drag radials. helped his 60ft's

best ET

14.1 @ 102 mph (drag radials) 2.3 60ft
14.6 @ 102 mph (street tires) 2.7 60ft

Pat did pretty good for his first time drag racing ever... (since hes a former Stereo champ and all) rofl :P

13.3 @ 102mph (slicks) 1.8 60ft
13.8 @ 102mph (drag radials) 2.1 60ft?

And of course.. who could forget beau? and what happens everytime beau goes to the track?...LOL problems! His first run didnt look to bad other than the rev limiter was at 7500 rpms and he made a pass at 12.1 @ 120mph. So he comes back around we adjusted the rev limiter and he went back inline, does his famous clutch drop 8500rpm launch, goes about 100 ft and just coasts. Ok so he comes back around we pop the front end off and the custom front suspension beau made completely bent up, plus it launched the shifter linkage off, so we tried to bolt it back up and its off a good inch or so, the whole engine is bent about 1/2 - 1in away from the firewall. Not sure what exactly bent. More pics are coming soon on this!

Overall pretty fun weekend, I think we should call "woodburn" more like "sunburn" ;)

Dave should be posting the video shortly.

Big thanks to Steve for coming down and giving us a hand in the pits! ;D

And johnny love the missing corner light, for more airflow right? :P And damn you have had nothing but charge pipe problem huh?

Re:HMT @ the track last weekend
 

my dad backed it into a pole a long time ago... lmao cant you see the huge dent?

i had charge pipe problems, i was on my way to a 13 sec run when i blew one off... went 14.2 @ 93

i had problems more along the lines of not getting any traction

Re:HMT @ the track last weekend
 

Sounds like u had fun. That's funny about the serpentine belt being lost, didn't he notice the lack of power steering and ----? Lucky he didn't crack one of the heads.

Re:HMT @ the track last weekend
 

damn guys, real impressive runs!!!
i was just on draglab a couple minuts ago and i had saw the pics on the front page and was thinking to myself "did Jeff not put this on HMT, just draglab >:("
but i guess i was wrong ;D
so Jeff wheres the crx? im guessing you got a top secreat project goin on ;)
yea johnny that sucks with the pips, im guessing you still got the homedepot connecters...but still had a good run
so whats beau's car redline at 9000, im sure hill be hittin the 11's :o
Pat you realy got those 60 ft times down. and that was your first time at the track. good job

Re:HMT @ the track last weekend
 

Draglab hosts all the files so I usually update it first before hmt.

Beau has already hit 11.7 last year, his car should be hitting low 11's right now.

My car?... I think I'm gonna take a break on my car for awhile. I do have plans of a possible hm m62 blower setup, but thats just a maybe. ;)

haha, video is up.. thanks for the editing dave.

As you can see beau was ------- pretty shitty the night before the dyno..

"bbka early years" ROFL ;D

Re:HMT @ the track last weekend ::Video::
 

nice vid :)

That best sound system ---- is hilarious ;D

Re:HMT @ the track last weekend ::Video::
 

lol you guys crack me up. That Red CRX that raced beau sounded pretty bad ass too. And did I see beau give Pat a HUGE head start? or was that the slow reaction time due to the night b4? ;D

Re:HMT @ the track last weekend ::Video::
 

"best sound system" hahaha... it's okay bbka, we all were there back in high school. ;)
