awful 1/4mile times......getting slower
awful 1/4mile times......getting slower
I just came back from the track tonight. temp was at around mid 70's humidity was kinda high too. slight head wind. all i did since the last time i went was change my oil. here are my times.
reaction .759
60ft 2.485
1/8 et 9.689
1/8mph 78.38
1/4et 14.844
1/4mph 95.74
that was the best out of 4 runs of the night. the slowest time was an embarassing 15.2@94mph. wtf, i just went 2 weeks ago and i had a best of 14.3@98. what gives? tire pressure was at 20psi on the 15.2 run and at 30 for the 14.8 run. as far as i know, everything else was the same, i went tonight because i thought i could get my 60ft time down and hopefully get into the 13's. i know my 60ft time sucks but i had a best of 14.3 with a 2.3 60ft time. im stumped. weird things happend tonight. for instance, my column lights (prnodd21) didn't come on when i turned my parking lights on. then i turn off the car, turn it back on and poof, the lights come on. then my front headlight goes out. also, for some reason, while driving home, my ses light came on, so i pulled to the side of the road, turned off the car, and started it back up. the light never came back on. i wasn't hot rodding or anything, just driving at the speed limit.

WOW adobo, I'm from east honolulu and I run 14.3@98mph as my best too! Do you have 2.73's or 3.23's? I also consistently cut around 2.3x 60's. HRP is pretty crappy, and the best I've got has been a 2.1x 60. But that was just a fluke.
I'll tell you personally that the BEST mod I've done so far has been the SLP manual fan switch. After all, what's the use if you run 13's once or twice but you can't repeat it all night long? After installing this my ET's were MUCH more consistent, regardless of the weather. I used to have ET's anywhere from 14.6 to 14.9 when I was stock, but the manual fan switch kept the range to about 14.6 to 14.7, and my mph were much more consistent too! PM me if u got any Q's or if u just wanna chat.
