Might as well be running a 24.5X3" slick with the ignorant alignment ------- up the contact patch.

Goddamn 1/8th mile teases...

Who's car was that?

Re: White 89 HFs are slow.
 
Goforth's, he traded a Mk3 Supra he had $3000 in for the car. GE sleeved and assembled 2.0 ITR, finish sorting/manifold/charge pipe/tuning by John at LHT. I molested the Hyundaidata to up the revlimit so he wouldn't tap revlimit going through the traps, and changed sparkplugs a couple times, but those ARE my slicks he's worn the outside of bald by not aligning the car.

The CRX should hit 7.1 to 7.0 after alignment, but probably not on those slicks due to fucked up tire wear. At that point, I get to strap it to a dyno and play god since it only makes 423whp.

That track looks gay and 1/8 mile is the suck, but car looks to have some serious potential :y Bet the ford owner thought he had him :6

Heh, I saw that video like 3 days ago, being bored and browsing Youtube.

I didn't expect the CRX to win.

The CRX is stock suspension with cheapass coilovers. Theres 2 to 4 tenths caught up in the alignment, easy. Spins most the track as is. BTW, eighth owns the quarter... If you can't get out of the hole your quarter ETs are going to be slow and gay. Come back when you have spent a couple years of going to the track 1 to 2 times a week and you won't have stupid opinions.

Car has plenty of power suspension will own that car


JD speaks the truth hence why you see so many turbo cars trappin in the low 120's and still run 12's

Shadyside is closer. The ride down 64 to 74 (exit 103-104 off I-40) when coming from your direction is pretty sweet; narrow curvy two lane but it's mostly long sweeping curves so you can haul.

Sweet, me vs JDogg fistfight! His tubby ass will probably win.

7.28@104.8 last night @ 15 psi on "24.5X6" slicks. 60' times are a tenth worse, but the car is hooking mid-track now.

Time to swap on the other 24.5X9's, and install the two stage boost controller to launch at 13 psi and switch to 20 for 110 mph traps and somewhere in the 6's. Ass end still bobs up and down, needs more suspension work. I'm betting it'd crack a 9 in the 1/4, after fighting the chassis some more.

yes they are. :8

7.15@105.3 mph with 60' still stuck in the 1.8's. There's more suspension work left to do, but it's starting to get traction mid track.

6's soon.

6's are good for what, 10's in the quarter?

Re: White 89 HFs are slow.
 
Given a FWD has more go on the back half of a 1/4 mile track this one may hit 9.9x if she can see high 6's in the 1/8th. The car's turning it's best times 15-16 psi... needs two stage boost and FTL - 13 psi out of the hole, and switch to 20 psi once traction issues are over.

Brian Hunt's hit 10.5's on street tires in heavier chassis making as much power. Goforth is probably just as good a driver.
