first 1/4 mile run

[45SET]

hey all

just thought i would tell you all about my first ever 1/4 run in the teg.

went out to willowbank race way yesterday, and managed to get 7 runs in (it was sweet) anyways... i was getting better every run, so heres the brake up

Run 1: 15.486 @ 146.96 K.P.H
Run 2: 15.403 @ 146.10 (raced DC2r.... won )
Run 3: 15.062 @ 151.32 (beat him again )
Run 4: 14.853 @ 155.48
Run 5: 14.807 @ 154.65 (SR20DE datto 1600)
Run 6: 14.797 @ 156.01 (same datto)
i then let the car rest for a bit
Run 7: 14.896 @ 148.34

i was expecting to get a low 15... but jut got better and better everytime i went out.... it wasnt till i got my first 14.8 i was luanching at 3000 RPM (prior i was luanching from idel )

my 60ft times are all around the 2.3 mark... so if i fix that up i should get better times.

mods are K&N intake, and lowered springs..... should be getting some better rubber and some adjustable shocks before i got out there next time.

damnn those times are really good... i think motor mag only got a 15.4 from a stock type-s?

for the 4th run did u launch from idle or from 3k?

for the 4th run did u launch from idle or from 3k?

4th run was the first 3k luanch....

was going to try a 3.5 or 4k.. but the amount of axel tramp i got off 3k was heaps... thought the car was going to brake

good driving skills i say!

i wish ....

mm..14.8 is impressive for basically stock dc5r. maybe motor mag do 0-400m tests on road type environment, whereas u get better traction on a drag strip? tho it doesnt sound like u got that much traction..

interesting technique launching from idle..launching from 3-4k definitely sounds better. dunno tho as i've never bn to the drag strip..
