California Speedway results 11/13/04
Interesting day yesterday: the weather was far cooler than we'd yet seen at this venue, and the wind was slightly behind us rather blowing 15mph straight in our faces on the track. In attendance were yours truly, PTGT_Boy, LiquidPT, macster, tezz, Rice_Killing_GT, and even baggedptturbo03 showed up late in the day just to hang out. Robert was kind enough to bring along a set of BFG drag radials on nice, lightweight wheels for me to try out. The place was packed, but we managed 3 runs. Mine played out like this:
Run 1:
R/T: 0.495
60': 2.216
330: 6.104
1/8: 9.356
MPH: 75.38
1000': 12.173
1/4: 14.554
MPH: 94.24
Run 2: (dropped pressure in drag radials from 29 to 25psi)
R/T: 0.287
60': 2.184
330: 6.115
1/8: 9.424
MPH: 74.76
1000': 12.313
1/4: 14.748
MPH: 92.42
Run 3: (swapped back to my street tires at 34psi)
R/T: 0.530
60': 2.216
330: 6.125
1/8: 9.414
MPH: 74.30
1000': 12.276
1/4: 14.694
MPH: 93.34
Before yesterday my previous best time had been a 14.87 @ 91mph. Interesting that my time on street tires split my two runs on drag radials. Go figure.
Oh yeah, mods are: Stage 1 on a Turbo Lite auto tranny, VAK intake, Magnecor ignition wires, stock Champion plugs gapped to .042. That's it.
