consistency is not your friend.

 

yea i guess not since it was my first time.................

 

i know you said your clutch was slipping but if it wasnt you should be trapping over 100,

 

What do your mods consist of.. mainly the intense stage 3? I mean pulley size and injectors. If you are on 42s with a 2.9-3.0" you should be trapping a good 102-105. You got a 2.3 60' your first trip, I would say that isn't too bad. You get that down to a 2.2 and get a 9.0-9.1 in the 1/8th and you will see 13s. Good luck next time you go.

Holy crap I just looked at your traps. They are way low. You sure you didn't leave off before the end?!?

How hot was it out and whats the approx. elevation?

 

it was about 55 to 60 degrees, and not shure on the elev. and yea my mods are 42's and 2.9 pulley, i think it is this tune intense sent me because i break up some times just driveing normal, i dont know but i thought the times should have been better, guess i need a retune

 

i am on your heels with a stock motor in my 2.4L. i really hope your clutch is that bad. but not to bad for a first time

 

Hey, those times arent bad for a first trip, just work on getting those 60's down. Is your TD tightened all the way, that helps a bunch with wheel hop.
Also, try dropping your tire pressure. I hear the stock Pirrellis are good at about 25 PSI, you will find the car hooks better with lower pressure. Experiment with different pressures. Also, have the rears up higher than you normally would. They should have free air over there as well, so you shouldn't worry about having to bring a compressor or anything.
Good luck on your next trip though.

 

yea didnt wheel hop at all but i was gonna play with my tire pressure but to many hondas and stuff at the track so 2 runs in 4 hours is all i got, granted i got tired of waiting in line so i went and watched a bit too.

 

WHAT!!! 2 runs in 4 hours. When I went the other day I got 11 runs in 1 and a 1/2 hours. Sometimes I wouldnt even be able to stop and stage, just pull right back onto the track. Lol
