Was my 1st time ever up a drag strip today got there bright and early 1st car up the strip #1 on the car :)

Got off racing my m8s CRX i run a 15.3 he did a 15.5 then kept going up and getting 15.2's 15.1s with crap 60ft

Then thought what can i do to get some better times just decided to bang the suspension to the hardest setting and put tthe mirrors in :) then got some 14.9's which i was well happy with then raced an evo who run an 11.2 or .5 and it must have pulled me along as i got a 14.6 @ 95, 2.4 60ft i think it was :) will have t find the slip.

Just running a TD04 peaking 0.38 bar unmapped atm :(

Need mapping.

Best time:

.38 bar? Dont you mean .83?

Theres no way you would run them times at that pressure.

Peaking at 0.38 bar on my Gizzmo boost controller acting as a real time boost gauge as its not plumbed in yet. Running off the 0.5bar wastegate spring, and prob losing the 0.1 bar through intercooler piping like.

Id say its down to the driver :)

Quickest relatively stock crx ran a 14.9 yesterday best I managed was a 15.2. And having been passenger in his car I've saw the boost controller saying .38, post up some slips mate

Yer i was well chuffed, well tbh the car has felt slower than my ct9 at 1.1 bar and i didn't know what times to expect yesterday. Then raced my m8s CRX as we was 1st up the strip when it opened and bet him running 15.3 he run 15.5 i was like hey it aint actually as slow as i thought. Managed to get better and better times through the day.

Just copying the slip for my 14.6 as i cant put pics on atm as im using an old shit pc with no firewire which is needed from my dslr camera.
