Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)
 
12psi..lol
Lets hope so. Ive been working on my car all day, and was out late bringing the boost up. Past 11psi Im having problems, and cant seem to smooth it out. Didnt seem to be fueling, and have tried backing the timing down (up to 2.5 degrees) in the higher boost areas. No luck.
I thought It might me the GM Map sensor, so plugged the stock one back in and loaded a previous ROM that ran strong (stronger than when on the dyno). Now Im getting a wierd ass rev limmiter when at full boost (8psi). I thought it might be a problem w/ boost fuel cut, so I disabled it. Still cuts. Thought it might be an intermitent problem with the Hondata box, so I disconnected from Datalogging. Still does it. Im still driving down Wednesday; got a few more things to check over in the morning.
13.3 or bust.

Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)
 
Pacific Raceway in Auburn (was SIR) today it's an all import event. Think it's called import invasion.

Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)
 
The weather isn't great but it's usually like this on race days. Think were just going to chance it, you should too.

Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)

Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)
 
Beau, just push your car down the track! make noise liek your pealing out and blow NOS out arround the front wheels to make it look like you are pealing out to warm up hte tires! lol

Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)
 
Yeah let me know ahead of time and I will come to the next race. I live about 1.5 hours south and I have a slow stock 95 civic, but it would be fun to pop my drag racing cherry and watch everybody else race.

Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)
 
yeah let us know ahead of time I live about 5 miles from pacific raceway.

Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)
 
I think Jeff will run about a 12.7 or so, and it will hugely dependant on traction.

Princess: Reilly predicted a 15.2 from you, I think he has a crush on you too.

turbohf 05-15-2003 12:12 AM

Re:How Fast for Tommorow? (guess)

13.7 @ 108.8 was my best.
A bit disappointed :-\

Traction wasnt in the forcast.
<-----making excuses. ;)

Even with the smoke screen, Dustin layed down the law. Dam, almost broke into 13's. Nice trap too. Thats some serious times for the $$$$$.

Im gonna search through the vids made with my camera and see if I got Jeffs run when he activated his 'water injection' cough, cough, head gasket. :P

Man, if your running 104.59, then you have some serious traction issues to only land a 14.0. What was the 60 ft time on that run? My guess would be 2.3 or so?

BTW, I have a set of slicks on Lensos that I am planning on selling. ;)

Wow, you too are needing to get off the line. Maybe the track wasn't too sticky?
