SIN Races.....
 

Well I went to the SIN (Southeastern Import Naionals) Sat. and had alot of fun. It was extremely hard to pull down a good 1/4 time because hot weather + turbo does not mix. It finally cooled off a little so I finally did get 15.4 secs in the 1/4 at 99 mph (which I was surprise at the speed). I got to race a Neon SRT and I did get him off the line a little but ended up getting my ass handed to me LOL final was Neon 14.3 me 16.1 yeah that was not one of my better runs lol. One of the most impressive ride out there was a first gen Eclipse running at 21 psi (DAMN!) he was pull down 12.4 1/4 times smoking all the EVOs, STIs, and Neons .....It was a good day wish some of you guys could have made it....

hate I missed it. I know the guy with the eclipse I believe. His name is Yosuke and he's on our local racing forum here. did you get any timeslips so we can see your 60' times or 1/8th mile times?

Yeah let me see if I can get them up loaded...

First one is my best time of the day this againt my friends 2001 Eclipse he wanted to try his in automatic (not the sport shift) that is why his time is so bad LOL. I am # 51 on the sheet...

This one is against the Neon SRT .....

Is Yosuke his first name? Cause he was not an Asian Guy...this guys eclipse was dark green with black wheels (kinda rough lookin car)

OH I failed to mention it was hella fun until I got a screw stuck in my freakin tire so I was out from about 3:00 to 5:00(closing) I was sooooo... freakin pissed

I only understood the 1/4 and the 0-60 and mph, blah, the basics, can someone translate/teach me how to read those? never been to a track even tho there is one in the town over, thnx..

It is really simple the R/T is you reaction time (how quick of the line you are) the 60' is you 60ft time (fron the line to 60ft). Same w/ the 330' as the 60. next is you 1/8 of a mile time and of course under that is how fast you were running. the 1000' is the same as the 60 and 330. Then you 1/4 time and how fast you were going...

thanks man

how does it feel with the new exhaust on it? does it have some more top end grunt.....I know with my MSP it seemed to fall off after about mid-rpms...it was like it pulled hard then like a regular 4cyl again.

Yeah top end it pulls a hella lot harder like in the 1/4 from a previous time i got the same time 15.4 but my speed was 91 miles an hr and this time w/ the exhaust I was at 99 mph. I honestly think if I did not get a screw in the tire i could have pulled down a 15.2 or less cause later in the day it cooled off considerbly. I will plan on go to the Steele track some time at night to see if I can't...
