Went to the track yesterday and managed to run a 13.29 at 111.9 Mph had trouble shifting from first to second and after wasting a couple runs we tore into the shifter and found the cable was badly bent at about a 135 degree angle. We managed after much FN around to straighten it out. I Granny shifted the rest on the day and ran in the low 13s. All runs were at 111.5 Mph or better. Still trying to get it hooked up though. Ill post my time slip as soon as I scan it. Its real hard to read because the printout is light. Also clutch is starting to slip so I guess Ill have to put the Spec I have sitting on the shelf in. Heres a video of my 13.29

 

That's a serious 60' time. Well done.

 

Nice work!

 

Did you launch in 2nd gear? Maybe I'm retarded, but I only hear 2 shifts there....

 

Good times, track days are always fun..(If you don't break anything)

 

first time my bellhousing cracked. n yea they suck to hook up you on dr's?

 

1-2 2-3 through the traps in 3rd still pulling like beast. Vinces tune adjustment for the meth really woke it up.

 

There were way to many cars there since it was the trick or treat special. 400 cars so I didnt get out of there until 2AM. Test and tune from now on out. We will head up next Saturday. Im going to check out the shifter and make sure its OK and try some more aggressive shifting next week. Then I guess it will be clutch time. Im pretty pleased with the Nitto DRs. I was running them at 15 psi and slowly starting to figure them out. I hope I can get into the 12s next time out and run a couple more mph.

 

almost 30 mph in the big end

wow

thats pulling like a freight train

nice times

 

Engine is silky smooth also. Running 50 -50 Meth mix. Might bump it up 10 percent next week. NKG iridium pulgs gapped at 032

 

Nice time.

 

Am I on DR's? No I've only been to the strip once on streets.

 

How are you still in 3rd gear? I can't get anywhere near the line in 3rd gear and I trap at 110mph. How high is your rev limiter?

 

mines set to 7k, i can get across in 3rd i shift into 4th tho cause i dont need **** goin bad for me

 

good job this gives me hope i went for the second time in the cobalt this past friday best time was 14.29
exactly one second slower than you so i can't wait to get my tune to see how low can i go

 

I think Im going across at 6800 rpm but my tires are 25.4 inchs tall and are probably growin on the top end.

 

well, at least you can sort of drive in the straight line

 

No rev or speed limit on my tune but I only have 3500 miles on it since July of 2009 so you know what I use it for.

 

After it gets cold we are going to get it ready for road racing and Ill use my GTA for the drags

 

Thanks Chris. How is your 2 step set up ? I could use a little help launching.

 

Nice times. What tires are you getting that 60 ft on?

 

Did you put in a N2MB wotbox? I thought I heard a two step. Mine is set at like 5000rpms so thats not going to help you on drag radials. On a drag radial I would prolly set it at 25-3000 and slip it out quick. Almost a dump but just enough slip in there to not get the tires frying, a little spin is going to be ok as long as your not wheel hopping.

 

Nitto 555Rs 275/40 17s 11.4 inchs wide

 

this must not be the cobalt then

 

I headin off to a cruise for an hour or 2. I like to go down there and park right in the middle of Corvette rowor better yet
