Went down to track :(
 
Well went down to the track , squeeked off 2 runs .
MOROSO RACE PARK in Jupiter Florida

First run
R/t = 1.254
1/4 18.563
Mph= 74.82

2nd run
1.03 R/T
1/4 18.704
MPH 74.62
:mad:

Dont you think a 2000 ES auto with exhaust and intake can do better? Or am I just a bad driver?
This was my first time by the way.

By the way I went up against a FIRE HAWK ON SLICKS and it RAN A 12.40 at 114.54 MPH! :eek:

I WAS OUT OF MY LEAUGE to say the least

I don't think you're a bad driver, you're going on a straight line with an auto, there isn't much to do besides step on the gas.

I could be wrong though.

Brake Torque maybe?

I think the car is capable of 17 's easy.

ShotCaller Oct 4, 2002 09:02 PM

Regardless of what the car is capable of, I give ya props for takin it to the track and givin it a go.

PhotoPro5 Oct 4, 2002 09:05 PM

That's pretty slow.

Kinda made me laugh, not because our cars are slow, but because my last car could run mid-low 13's. Now I'm in the 17's...
:crook:
I'd power brake it, let the automatic shift for itself, and take the spare tire and jack out of the trunk.

I wish we had public tracks like that here

pimpprotege69 Oct 4, 2002 10:07 PM

Yeah track is literally 15 minutes from here , wednesday and friday night 6pm 11 pm 15 $ all you can race.

Yeah i left spare tire in , didnt brake torque either.
Must have been funny as hell to the crowd seeing me go up against a supercharged Fire Hawk On SLICKS.

FUCKER redlighted second time thoe, SO I WIN , LOL.
He said he had 418 whp. I said I might have over 100whp :D

Funny thing is he almost doubled my MPH. :eek:

props for actually taking the car to the track and extra props for posting truthful results!

try lowering you tire pressure in your fronts (25-27 PSI). if you have an automatic, you gotta power brake (previously mentioned) at the start. what's your 60 foot time?

pimpprotege69 Oct 7, 2002 10:37 AM

Dam I should have power braked then ,

My 60 foot time was 2.7 seconds. That is slow I know it is.

4 Speed Auto no power off the line :mad:

I'll Have to brake torque off the line next time to around 2k rpm?

Then let er' rip, I should be in the 17's I know I should.
Intake and exhaust has to do something.

pimpprotege69 Oct 7, 2002 10:40 AM

My bad my 60 ' foot time was 2.977 seconds each time.

THAT IS SLOW AS BALLS, must brake torque next time otherwise I go no where.


What should my 60 foot time be?

pimpprotege69 Oct 7, 2002 04:10 PM

Stereo crap yea.
And spare tire as well.



:cool:

Patio Oct 8, 2002 02:31 PM

uhh spray it, youll run 15s :D

I dunno about your tranny though :o

pimpprotege69 Oct 8, 2002 11:17 PM

NOS! , yes

soon :D

itzkcatz Oct 10, 2002 07:01 PM

Wouldnt putting it on 17's make it hella slower?

pimpprotege69 Oct 10, 2002 09:59 PM
