Went to the sweet 1/8 mile drags + drift + autocross event wooooo
 
my car was runnin real good, i havent put my drag radials on any wheels yet, so it was sweet 245/50/r16 street tires for me. launching off idle i lose traction through first and through second. but if i let off and got back on it real fast once i hit second i could hook sometimes.

i was running 7-6lbs, my best time was 8.33 @ ?? w/ 2.4 60 foot they didnt have mph times :1 which was lame. i hate to guess but i think i was goin about ~95-100mph. cause i was in 3rd gear at about 4k rpms and at 5k its 110mph.

i did the autocross a couple times which was pretty lame and pretty fun at the same time with the auto trans. i broke my seat the first drag run i did, in the same place. the stud pulled out of the floor again. then i went to the autocross and the whole seat bracket broke and i flew all over the inside of the car. it was lame LOL. i went all the way up onto the trans tunnel, then back down against the door, and i slammed my head on the window LOL. then i hammered the gas and the seat almost went back into the back seat area and i couldnt reach the pedals and barely the steering wheel LOL. you can see in the video where i lock up the front brakes is when the seat broke and i started to fly around LOL...

it was pretty fun... if i got a 1.9 60 foot i would be well into the 7s
and a little more boost (jeff thinks im dreaming) and some slicks i want to run a 6.9999999 :P

here is a ton of pictures and videos.

8.3's is slow. We were turning that on a stock LS swapped Civic with a 65 shot last summer.

So you get to drag race, then pull on over and snap off some cone dodging? lol. Sounds like a fun night.

Id pay to have in-car cam of your seat breaking off, hahaha

haha ya, they have the super drifto event too, some of them were pretty good at it most of them didnt have the balls to spin the tires over w/o clutch drop/e brake pulls

i lit em up on the straight just floorin it in 2nd to start my "drift" LOL

I wanted to ride in the car with Johnny to get some in car vids, but he wasn't too hot for that idea

I would have been really freaked out if I was in the car when his seat broke, with him flying over to my side, into the door, into the back of the car... would have been a sweet video though!

8.7's in the 1/8? I thought you said your car was fast? :-X

johnny, a b16'd hatch would smoke that.

I lost count of how many hondas down there were getting smoked by large chevy trucks.... yeah, they're real fast and Johnny's car is slow ::)

I'd say he did good with the poor traction he gets from street tires

8.33 with 2.560 foot burning off through 2nd gear trapping 100mph.

8.33 = about 12.9 1/4

w/ 1.9 60 foot 8.33 = 7.7 1/8 which is about ~12.1

not too shabby for all stock motor and 7-6lbs

b16 crx = loses to me by 15 cars :)
i got eliminated by a srt4 on the first round of bracket racing, i redlighted :1 but i beat him by about 10 cars :)

haha very true, that swapped crx got toasted by a huge ass truck with at least 40 inch tires on it.

not what I said fag. I said johnny brags that his car is so much faster than any honda...then he goes to an 1/8 mile and runs that. :1

If it were me, I would have never said anything about it...

ohh yeah, he also used to whine that "autocross is the lamest auto event out there" and then he goes and does it...... :1

ya i did it cause it was part of the thing, and yes it was gay :-*


the leftover radiation from gookland must be effecting your brain

8.3 is not that bad of a 1/8 esp when you figure in the 2.5 60 foot.

my car is a 12 flat car at 7-6lbs with a 1.9 60 foot :)

W/ those 1/8th and 60ft times I would predict 12.1-2-3s w/ a 1.9 60. That would deff. smoke a B16'd CRX; by more than a few cars.
I did my 11.79 w/ a 1.9 & 7.7.

I wouldnt be gauging you running low 12's @6psi on a real track with real tires by what you ran at a 1/8th mile track that isnt even really setup with a accurate time system on street tires.

Johnny had a serious look in his face when he said he could run 6's out there with slicks.... :8

And lets rephrase this... because there was no Autocrossing out there, there was no real course, it was a drifting event in a half ass figure 8 course. This is the 2nd week they have done it, so they really dont know wtf they are doing out there. Everyone was trying to drift like they see on TV and it was retarded, there were some ------ed out jdm 240's they were ok, but the Crown Vic cop car stole the show IMO, hahah his peg leg drift with the spot lights on was just choice.

For 30 bucks 1/8th Mile & Drifting its ok I guess, you can definatly practice your launchs, I'm just not a big fan of going into the right bank at 90mph on a fwd with slicks. :3

there is no part throttle with my ignition setup. part throttle would cause a large advance in timing and most likely blow gaskets
