Good job, now lets see a timeslip

 

time slip 14.09 couldn't find the 14.05 think it flew out the window haha

 

13.926@94.95 mph 1/4 mile track mods tune intake spun metal cat dp

 

for me:
car 4152: 14.562@96.63 w/ 2.297 60'
NWAE Cobalt: 2.2l 5spd: Intake, intake mani, tb, 32lb injectors, shaved cyl head (higher compression), 78lb valve springs, stg 2 cams, header, dp, catless, exhaust, lowered, tuned, weight reduction, street tires
time slip:
vid (you can read most of the number but its backwards on the window :P): YouTube - ‪cammed 2.2 cobalt 1/4 mile 5-14-11‬‏

 

why are you trapping sow low Bama? Stock I was trapping 103MPH

I think the MPH is off on your slip. You only picked up 10 MPH from the 1/8th to the 1/4

 

On the other ticket it said 104 or a 14.3 And the other guy that drove this car did a 13.9 was at 105. I just didn't spin that time is all I guessed. Idk everyone else's times and speeds were right on

 

It looks like a track error too because the guy next to you lost 3 MPH after the 8th. You also both did the 1000Ft in 0 Flat which makes you at more than light speed

 

I am going to order a GoPro HD for the Car to get some good footage instead of my iphone. I am sure some of you have seen my vids and i was always pretty gentle on street tires out of the hole. I must say leaving on slicks was sick with the cobalt i was launching at 4k on the old M62 and hooked so hard i almost missed 1st gear each time, no spin just dead hooking it.. Going to be different on the turbo but will still be launching the lsj with the wotbox. Will start at 3 and work my way up. Gonna be fun for sure.

 

15.1 @ 93!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahhaha

 

really....

 

I just saw this... Drew you have the pic of my car with the number on it. Here's my time slip.


14.068 @ 102.17 MPH <I/2.9/T/H/ST/CM/WR>

 

I will put it up

 

lol, so i know the list is still pretty short, but...
YAY for being the only 2.2 on the top ten and the only N/A on there too

 

You might want to start at about 5000 lol. I launched the car on the 5857 at 4500 and it almost stalled. 5500 my first run next time lol.

 

you'll bog at 3k, unless you can build 13psi sitting still

 

Even I, on the TVS, launch at 5k 2step from WotBox.

 

Yeah i know its going to be different on the turbo for sure. Sure i will find my sweet spot eventually. 5k Launches are def going to be fun for sure. Guess we will find out . Never owned anything turbo so this should be interesting.

 

You best believe when I get back from Afghanistan that I'll crack that 13 wide open.

 

this was last weekend out at Island raceway.....only thing that sucked was it was hott that day, plus i need help on my driver mod. Mods in sig.

 

Went 12.9 @ 108 with the top end of 2nd missing, and no 3rd gear :/

I guess that gives me high hopes for when the car is fixed?

Having no LSD is starting to kill me now as well.

 

stock cooling might be getting you too. Do you have a slip so I can put you at the top of the LSJ's?

 

It's not the cooling. Temps are fine, I have coil packs that are bad. It misfires top of 2nd and all of 3rd now. Just doesn't accelerate at all when it's in boost. They were acting up last year, and they finally bit the bullet this year completely.

I went a lot faster last year, not worried about this shitty time slip.

 

I want to be able to put up some times for the LSJ guys to compete with. As of right now it looks like everyone is content with 14's. It will give some positive motivation for the LSJ guys.

 

What does your car weight? Do you know? Approx?
