Post Your Drag Times

[canadianskyline]

Hey, just thought it'd be cool to see what times people are running. My car ran a 14.3 at 99mph in 5 Degee Celsius weather. My 60 foot time was 2.5 second on "way past bald" tires. Anyone else have times for their cars yet?? I cant wait to get my mods done this winter.

wow, mods done this winter, i hope you aren't driving it this winter. and i wonder why your tires are bald. haha. nice time though.

Sorry, what i meant was that the car is parked for winter and i have cough...plans for it...cough. We'll see how far my money takes me. But ya, we were definately doing a lot of burnouts that weekend so the tires were down to the wires.....im pretty confident as the car sits right now, i could get another couple tenths out of it (better tires and a better track day).

5 degrees is pretty cold to be running at a track. so how doesa turbo react to really cold air, i know its more dense and all but at some point it couldbe to cold right?

I've got a slip for 15.1 @93 in my NA CRX
I'm planning on getting the GTR to a track in May.

The car pulled hard like it always does...but i know the traction loss far outweighed any gains made by the cooler air. Im lookin for a 12 this spring on hankook ventus 245/45zr17, and then we'll see what some slicks does... :roll: BTW, as far as i know, the cooler the better....from a power perspective anyway, the cool air might damage the turbo at some point though...i dunno..??

[supermanskye]

its true the colder the better for every deg colder you get i believe you gain more power, as per why some racers have nos spray infront of their intercoolers, because nos comes out at -72 deg.

as far as i know dont flame me

[icydude]

yeah i've heard of the sprayign the intercooler to drop temeratures, but lets say ur drivinga car hard in minus 30 wont it damage something?

i hope to get the gtr into the 11s now that the nhra has stepped down the time for requiring a roll cage
