went to the track last nite

[xczechboyx]

Well i went to the track for the first time ever. And i was surprised at what i got. I seriously thought i was gonna be slow and run in the 18s. I ran twice and both times i had a 17.1. This is with only a F22a4 with intake and exhaust. It was 100% humidity outside, so that maybe had a effect. I m gonna install my H23 manifold and A6 cam next week. Hopefully i can break into the 16s with that.

Here's my slip. I was on the left. I ran against this turbo civic.

[phatdoughnut]

you can go faster, your 60ft times are practically 2.5

[Boost_Lee]

i want specs on the 13.5 civic....hehe

like he said, get ur 60's down and you'll shave a good chunk of time

[accordaffair]

I think 17.1 was the time given to a stock accord, test driven in some magazine or such....

[d112crzy]

yea, you can most def get into the mid 16's if you get your 60' down. also, you're r/t is over half a second, try and get that down.

my stock f22a1 did 16.6, you should be doing the same if not better.

[h22sparkle]

boost your shit. boost the stock motor and thats it. If you want it to be reliable get that h22 if yoru car is a daily.

It was hot as hell that nite too. My balls were sweating like crazy waiting in the pits. Well i ran this on some cheap ass tires and with some walmart oil in my car. I m gonna switch to synthetic and put the manifold on with the cam. Hopefully that will improve my time. Also i was surprised at home much grip my car got on the track. Usually on the streets i launch at 3k. But that didn't barely chirped the tires when i launched. I m gonna practise my launch and try and get my 60' time down.

dont use oil as your excuse because not even the most expensive oil is gona make a differnece in your times. the hotness doesnt make that much of a difference, maybe .2 seconds. i know because it was about 95* when i did my first run, which was 15.7, and as the night got colder, i got it down to 15.5, but it was mostly driver error.

I m not tryna make any excuses. What was i supposed to get if 17.1 is really slow?

[d112crzy]

mid to low 16's, which is what i got with a less powerfull engine.

[xczechboyx]

Hey d112crzy, what engine do you have? And what have you done to it? And is there any tricks to get a faster time?

[d112crzy]

i have the f22b dohc. not sucking at driving will improve your times.

was up xczechboyx. So how much does it cost to run at capitol? First time I ran my car was at mason dixon and The best time I got was a 16.1 with my H22. I think theres something seriously wrong with my motor though.

[xczechboyx]

hey hybrid. It was $20 to run there. It was my first time, so i didn't get any spectacular numbers. We should meet up there one day, i wanna see how much of a difference the H22 makes.

[1990HybridCB7]

yea we should, that was my first time ever at a track too. The car feels fast though but it just doesn't show up on the track (in my case right now). I heard Mason dixon was a bad track to race at. Have you heard anything about that?
