Default turbo civic track update with VIDEO & slips... 1/8 mile

so i finally got out to the track last night.. its only an 1/8 mile, but atleast i can judge my improvement.

my best two runs were:

60' - 2.343
1/8- 9.435
MPH-78.67

60' - 2.332
1/8- 9.363
MPH-80.50

http://www.pgmfi.org/~jparker/host/943.mpg <- right click and save as

I was having very bad traction problems because the red neck at the lights wouldn't let me use the water box and i was on slicks, so you know how that went. anyways i had fun and promised time slips, so there you go.

btw, that should translate into a low low 14 or high 13 quarter mile.

LSD

I couldn't tell if your clutch was slipping or you were really losing traction, but you say it's traction so I'll go with that. If you could have got out of first gear faster you would have pulled a better time. :P

my clutch is good. its stock and new, but it doesnt slip at all, even after about 15 runs of launches. the ------- working the lights wouldn't let me hit the water so i couldn't really warm up the slicks.

yeah, i took the hood off because the underhood heat was getting my charge pipes pretty hot. i thought it would help with cooling.
