Going for 11's for the second time Imports v. Domestics
Well for the second legit time, im going out for 11's stock turbo, full interior all that! last time out i got down to 12.008, this time it will be about 40 degrees cooler so im hoping for possibly 11.8 or maybe 11.7 if the planets are aligned right.
Anyone that is available should come down to MIR in Southern Maryland to Imports v. Domestics this weekend, Friday-Sunday all day. Im trying to get us Cobalts some credit on a big stage. over 20000 people show up to this event every year. https://www.cobaltss.net/gallery/fil..._for_track.jpg https://www.cobaltss.net/gallery/fil...5/7/photo3.jpg Slip from last time at the strip :twothumbs |
As long as you can still hook as hard as you did last time with the cooler weather you got this! Good luck man.
|
i'll have a few friends out there. they only one has a cobalt though
|
What are the wheels and tires that you are using?
|
Some cheap things and m and h slicks
|
17's?
|
verde protocols?
|
15 and yes I believe so
|
don't forget a 2nd gear burnout. you should be pulling 1.7's with those tires and the ko4 powerband.
or are you on a different turbo? |
Stock turbo.. Half the runs are 1.7 half are 1.8 I also have an ottp mount that's almost a full circle bc the bushing is destroyed... Haven't repaired that yet.. No footballs no straps just straight racing
|
Can't wait for this weekend. Will be watching for you, good luck!
I'm hoping for a 12.0 my self. Running 12.50 index tho |
Well that 12 won't do much good in 12.50... Lol
|
Lol. So is your car considered an import ? Or domestic ? Lol Jk
An those are some good numbers. How much boost you running? E85 50/50 mix? |

Honestly I just want some good passes in good air at a phenomenal track like MIR. |
If you make a qualifying pass at 12.0 will they still allow u to compete in 12.5? I'm not sure
Plus to 11.5 and you can line up with me |
I should be fine for 12.50... if I break out in the elims then thats on me. If they make me run 11.50 then I guess I will have to.
|
you'll be fine going 12.0 in a 12.5 class. bring a buddy with you and have them watch what times other people are making in their passes and write them down. i bet you won't be the only person going under the index.
and if you go against a car that can 60' you and you're playing catch up just a word of advice, i'd rather take the stripe and have the chance of breaking out than trying to pedal it and end up not getting by them. |
Looks like I'm screwed anyway. Changing oil in the corvette tonight noticed the drivers front tire was corded on the inside edge. I just bought the car in August and just had it inspected 3 weeks ago, this was missed many times. Called a ton of places looking for a 245/40/18 tonight and no one has them on hand.
Put the corvette in the Garage and connected the battery tender. It's done for the winter. Will be coming down to watch friends still, bringing our 2013 escape instead now. |
ugh... all my friends want me to go to this event... but my car is not tuned for the track... LOL!
i will be lucky if i run 12s with such a bottom base slow tune.... btw, i was the other red SS/TC at the college park meet in bowie... the one in the Turbo XS booth |
thinking about running e47
