Well, in 3 hours time i should be at the track finally getting some 1/4miles from my ss/tc, wish me luck

 

good luck man, looking forward to the results.

 

btw, track conditions, atm it's 19C outside, Elevation: 3380 feet.

 

GL bud. Its a riot doing the drag!!

 

will post slips when i get home

 

i said 14.0... couldnt make up my mind so i went with the middle number. haha. good luck!!

 

hmmm the poll results are most interesting

 

1st time at the track, is this your first time with a cobalt? or first time ever? or just first time with this car.

for the first time i wouldn't expect more than mid 14's. if you get better it's a bonus though!

 

in my lifetime i have done 3 "official" 1/4 miles at a track and that same night about 4 passes on the auto-x course, this was all in my last car.

 

so yea, this is the first time then.

No offense, but an elantra doesnt exactly count

 

I'm very curious to see the results; I think you'll be disappointed.

 

14.8@97

 

i'm guessing first run is 15's, and if you get some runs you get it down to mid-high 14's, and maybe a decent 14 run. but i would definitly be surprised to see low 14's or high 13's for the first time from someone with no track experience.

 

...so did you run under 14.5?

Thought so.

 

14.4 was my best run of the night..........countless track problems with the computer and getting time slips so only 3 runs were proper and probably 3-4 missed slips from runs when the computer failed, i really hope next week it's nice enough to run again.

My night........well i got the 1st and last run of the night lol, 1st run.......fail, didn't understand the launch control, took me a few runs to get the hang of it and then banged out 99.7-101.20MPH 3 in a row. My best 60ft was 2.325 and best R/T was .596 Best 1/4 mile was 14.422

Gunna go grab the slips from my car in a hour or less and i'll take pics of them.

 

Spam? My 14.5 guess was closer than your 5 poll choices.

 

lol gotta aim high or you'll always fly low

 

I'd say that your Poll Options are most interesting.

I was going to guess mid 14's as well. Good job for your first track visit.

 

had they stayed open a little while longer i could have maybe gotten a 14.0

 

looks like u need to learn to launch a car

 

eh, doubtful. But I'd bet you will get a 14.0 after a few more visits. Gotta get a good feel for the car and the track.

BTW, you made more runs in one night than I have in 3 track visits. LOL.

 

ya think?? started getting the hang of launch control by the last few runs, and a 2.3 best 60ft time ain't bad at all for a 100% newb

 

gotta remeber hes over 3000ft elevation, that will hurt his times too

 

no it won't. bosch ecu bumps the boost up on the SS/TC to maintain the rated 260/260.

 

i boost 14.5-17.4psi approx
