[Dev]

na i peddled it, eased on it, but it just kept spinnin. not considering the track prep was shitty.

[B00STedSvT]

What Track? What you got in ur DA?...Nobody is really gonna care unless you have a video or something..not tryin to be an ass..Just keepin it real..Are you wanting help? Or were you just trying to share with us?..If so there is a 1/4 slip section in the Kills forum..Later, Svt LoL

[Evil Goat]

ummm....ok....

you cant judge track prep on street tires, making excuses for not being able to drive is lamerham lincoln

[Dev]

it was steele dragway. and i have raced there many times. track prep is all depended on if there are any fast cars there if not they really dont worry about it. and i was just stating the times not lookin for help. next weekend i hope to be runnin slicks, and ill try to get a vid. for yall.

you need the driver mod, not slicks, at this point, learn how to drive it, then stick it

[Dev]

^^ just to let ya no that car is nice. i watched one smoke a '04 stang last night.

[Dev]

well it was the first time ive launched that car. (on the track) and kept gettin rushed at the line so... but i ran my last car like 50 times down that track and was use to it. this car is still new to me, tryin to work out the kinks in drivin it.

[MongolPup]

Haha no worries, I'll edit all the pictures out after his memory is jogged. Thanks for the compliment, I truly appreciate it.

[Dev]

not worried about the pics. just somethin to look at while ya scroll down.

[SmackedInATL]

Dev thinks everyone is trying to jack his thread, LOL. GET USED TO IT.

[Dev]

not really its just evry thread that dude posts in you bash him so just keep the shit out of my thread. thats all i wanted.

[Evil Goat]

Haha good guess.


ahhh...my memories not that bad! i remember this car, very nice!

and Dev....its all good, come out to sdr, we get a good amount of runs in each night, and when you get to the line remember that you paid a race fee just like everyone else, get up there and get comfortable and go for it, noones going to bitch about taking a extra few seconds getting ready

[Dev]

i understand that. hell where is sdr? never been.

[Evil Goat]

reynolds, ga....like 185 miles from rome, lol

[Dev]

thats a lil far for me bro. but im gonna work on my drivin each weekend at the track. then get me some slicks.

[Evil Goat]

i hear ya, didnt realize how far it was from rome until i mapquested it, goodluck with it, darkstar on here has a gsr integra in the mid 13's on slicks with a/c, heat, and power everything....get some weight outta that sucker too

[Dev]

well i figured if i could have hooked it would have been low 14's. abt. the weight, i need to loose a lot of it (not me) 135lbs. aint shit

[Kason23]

Dev.. I was there last night also My first run hooked decent but from there the track went to shit. Maybe if cars can maybe I dunno NOT BREAK every 5 minutes. DAMN ALABAMA ok.. /rant

The jet car was awesome regardless!!

Ithought DarkStar hit the mid 13's on street tires??

[Motivation]

Anyways Dev, like Evil said... You paid to race, line up, take your time, and go. clock doesn't start until you go. RT doesn't affect your 1/4 mile time.

[Dev]

Dev.. I was there last night also My first run hooked decent but from there the track went to shit. Maybe if cars can maybe I dunno NOT BREAK every 5 minutes. DAMN ALABAMA ok.. /rant

yeah i think the first two cars broke down. i know a civic slung a rod through the oil pan. but i seen you run, i think it was your last one, but you didnt seem to have any traction till mid 2nd gear. (still a fast run)

as for the jet car... fawkin sweet!

[onebadgt]

i understand traction problems. but i dont see how your having them to bad if you only trap 93mph. thats not gonna be enough to get you low 14s unless you can start cuttin 1.7s

[Kason23]

i understand traction problems. but i dont see how your having them to bad if you only trap 93mph. thats not gonna be enough to get you low 14s unless you can start cuttin 1.7s


this is true 93mph is about a 14.7-14.6 with 2.1 60's imo

[Dev]

well just to let yall know i was spinning almost through the 60'.

[onebadgt]

i dont care if you only have 140 hp if you dump th clutch from 5000 on the line. youll spin. i had 500whp and was spinning past the 1/8 runnin 13s but with better tires and a little driver mod practice i cut it down into the 11s

[TheSnail]

i understand traction problems. but i dont see how your having them to bad if you only trap 93mph. thats not gonna be enough to get you low 14s unless you can start cuttin 1.7s

I agree. I ran a 14.0 @101 with traction problems, but never did/could I burn through 2nd. Not to mention that was with stock 185/55/14 touring tires. So unless your tires are dryrotted to the point of cracked plastic, I cant see it being a problem.

[Kason23]

In other words your mph will show how fast your car is. 100mph is good for 14.0's on a fwd car while and a little faster on rwd ..simply because of a better 60ft maybe 13.7ish. Also if anything spinning increases mph to inflate numbers hence why alot of people trap lower on slicks. Of course there are ALOT of other variables that go into the mix also. So take this comment with a grain of salt lol.

[TheSnail]

grain of salt lol.


Ok, snail is out of this thread

i can show you a perfect example.

my srt-4 was trappin 101 runnin 14.0s stock.
my stang when stock ran a 13.6 at 101
my jeep ran a 13.2 at 102

thats the diff between

fwd-2.2 60ft
rwd 2.0 60ft
awd 1.7 60ft

[TheSnail]

^^^ I built up a layer of slim to resist the salt temporarily, but what the fuck kind of jeep did you have?

that is EXACTLY what I meant!!!

and a SRT-8 I assume :goodjob:

[Dev]

well the ls tranny sucks for one, but on top end its fun. i was tryin to launch at 2000 but it didnt seem to work.

[onebadgt]

^^^ I built up a layer of slim to resist the salt temporarily, but what the fuck kind of jeep did you have?

haha, i had a srt-8 jeep. and about launching at 2000 it might just be how you released the clutch, no idea? if your on small tires that spin but will hook from a roll, ive noticed the slip/drop seems to work well, just have it at about 2500 at the catching point of the clutch and instead of completly dropping just do a fast slip off the line. but who knows just practice youll at least cut a 2.1

[NevrNufTorq]

well the ls tranny sucks for one, but on top end its fun. i was tryin to launch at 2000 but it didnt seem to work.
it'll get there, fwd is tough and throttle control is a must :goodjob: you got a good combo just need the right street tire and then then slicks for later!!! remember the better you get on street tire at the track the better you'll be on the street with them. also, need to make sure the suspension is setup right and you have no funky camber issues!!!! nothing like having a 235 wide tire up front and only riding on 2 inches of it!! those guys kill me! gl man :2cents:

oh, jet car was incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek: :camera: that vid is coming later :goodjob:

[Dev]

^^ i seen your vette up there. so what was you runnin? oh and no camber probs. just need to go to the track a few more times. that was the first run ive made with that car(atleast on the track) ive already beat a 14.1 sec mustang on the street.*cough *cough 6 car lenghts *cough *cough.

Mustang should trap98+ no matter what and you trapped 93 so I call bs

[Dev]

call it what you will, but the guy would even tell you i beat him.

[BIGWADE]

call it what you will, but the guy would even tell you i beat him.


I was there..coulda been he couldnt drive but a win is a win ya know!!:goodjob:

[onebadgt]

i understand, no tellin what happened i just meant that if he traps 98+ and you pulled 5+ cars you would hafta trap like 104+ and you trapped 93. maybe he missed a gear or somethin. but like stated a wins a win so congrats!

[NevrNufTorq]

i was in my poopra, ran the 10 sec passes ;)

[TheSnail]

Since the mustang ran 14.1 on the track, and I ran a 14.098 at the track, I would be glad to run. You pulled him by 6 cars, so technicaly you should pull me by 5.96 cars. If I win I'll buy you Wendys. If I lose, I'll fill up your tank and and buy you Wendys. The only stings attached is this would be on video for the other onlookers to view.

[BIGWADE]

dude i seen those pass and damn that thing is sick man..wasnt much if anything that could touch u there besides the jet are and my buddy matts busa(the orange one) but hell thats a bike...but ya man i love that car!!!:goodjob:

[.:Stirfry:.]

sry if i havent read any of the posts..
but its all about the driver seat time..
2.4 60' on street tires on a stock GSR is pretty bad.. i
even cut a 2.01 60' on street tires in my t25 LS integra..

[.:Stirfry:.]

well the ls tranny sucks for one, but on top end its fun. i was tryin to launch at 2000 but it didnt seem to work.

2 grand man.. we gotta work on that yo. i launch at 5500. on launch control and 6 w/ out it..
