made a trip to commerce last night

[big mac]

first of all my setup is eg si hatch h2b 235 whp 179 tq. b16 tranny 4.4 fd. oem lsd. 24.5 slicks.
most of the runs were still in 100 degree weather.
and i found the suspension setup i have sucks donkey ball for racing.

best run i could was 13.2

rt .136
60' 1.917
330 5.513
1/8th 8.493
mph 83.54
1000 11.083
1/4 13.29
mph 102.12

it was a shitty night. i could concertrate with 100+degree inside car. and i made rokkie mistakes last 2 runs

gotta change some things around and run some 12's

This heat doesn't help, nether does a shitty suspension, but it gives you something to work towards.. :goodjob:


I ran Montgomery last weekend on set of Hancook Ventus c51, and my best ET was 13.4, best MPH of the day was 108, best 60ft was 2.1.. :(

Last past of the day:

R/T .186
60' 2.258
330 5.953
1/8 8.839
MPH 85.61

1/4 13.425
MPH 106.73

[big mac]

yeah heat was killin it. car wasnt running like it should of. gotta invest money in good suspension now

[big mac]

i looked at the thermometer when i did 13.2 and it was 102. fuck that. on another note wieghd my eg si with out back seat it came it at 2060. with 1/4 tank of gas. lighter than i though

[1civic]

Still a good start, and you know where to begin tweeking.. Track is nothing like the street..lol

[big mac]

yeah thats true. dont do too much on street anymore. not really worth it. already got busted once so ill pass lol

[big mac]

also thinking those 24.5's might of been a little big

[1civic]

what rpm did you trap in 4th?

[big mac]

like 6500 i wanna say maybe a bit higher my tach is off a bit. my 4th maxes at arouns 118 at 8200 and i trapped 102

[1civic]

Work on the 60ft first.. good shock/springs, traction bars, then alignment.. 24in tire sounds right for the TQ you make, but only will you know once the car will leave out of the hole right.. Never would you've known unless you ran the car, so just like I will take the baby steps to work on getting the car threw the 1/8 first.. ;)

23" will probably end up being the right size. Whats the weight of these things?

[big mac]

The slicks

[ECMgarrett]

Will you be running at NOPI?
PM me if you are, I dont get on here as often and might miss the thread
Looking for quick, proper cars to mount my gopro on/in

[big mac]

Trying to find some 23 to run

[big mac]

looked up specs on the suspension i was running. its 4 in front 6 in rear. lol. maybe running sunday with 8 on front and 10s on back

[ECMgarrett]

So youre coming to Nopi?
Rad dude!

also thinking those 24.5's might of been a little big

24.5 slicks is fine. U just need to turn ur launch control up. That power is ok for those slicks, nobody runs 23's anymore really. Good suspension, dial ur car in, n let it rip. Ull be fine

[big mac]

Launching about 7500 with the 24.5s
