My first pass with my EB :(

[Slow89]

My car did not like the 40 minute stuck in LA traffic drive.... What happened to my MPH :(

100% stock plus 20" fr500 wheels..... Don't mind the RT, building boost plus a gout attack makes for a slow process lol.

Hey don't sweat it man at least the only place you can go is up. I was cutting .3 R/T and 13's (in the 1/4) on my first time out in 7 years on pump gas and a car seat in the car lol. Going back this weekend with race gas and some weight taken off to see what it can do and all i have so far is intake and exhaust so be positive and try again

Actually have the car seat in mine lol.... The RT I'm not sweating because I knew it was going to be hard with a gout flare up. Have to use two feet on the brake to stage because it hurts so much haha

Looks like you built too much boost and blew the tires off. Did you try leaving off idle?

First pass hooked pretty well.... This last pass it's hard to stage because of my foot and built too much boost and blew the tires. How do u know I even blew the tires up? Haha

The 60ft was a good indicator. Some DRs should get your times down pretty well.

Not on drag radials tho.... Thought u were here lol. Second pass I blew the tires off the line and just stayed out of it. First passed that I posted was on street tires on 20" rims. I can't afford 20 inch drag radials haha

Let it cool for an hour well I watched some races and it ran this. A lot better run but was still hoping for more mile an hour. Oh well

 

[richard0ne]

Sorry I'm a noob.. so what was your 1/4 mile time?

 

[Legionofone]

He was on an 1/8th mile track.

[MENTION=18458]Midnight_LMR[/MENTION] I'm stoked..I'm going for broke. Pulled ~80lbs out of the car

Supposed to be nice racing weather. If I can hook, it's on!

I'll also have my sprayer packed with ice and H20. You will need to soak that intercooler of yours, it gets hot quick and stays there.

I see low 13's in your immediate future! (12's?)

 

[Slow89]

I live in SoCal so sadly out only track that's open every week is an 1/8 mile.... Was hoping for an 8.9 pass but couldn't cut a lower 60ft

 

[richard0ne]

Sucks I'm not to familiar with 1/8 times lol

I'm in Redondo Beach area.. no 1/4 tracks that I know off.. then again my car is a manual so I bet you my launch is shitty

Irwindale is about 30-40 mins from u without traffic. About 1-1.30hr with traffic. Message me, we usual go with a couple fast coyotes and foxes. First time out with this ecoboost so it's always a fun learning experience u know

Quick and cheap trick is find a Kirkey seat that fits or even a cobreau forza seat (16 pounds) and pull both seats and put in one seat. Easy 100 pounds off your total weight and only takes your time. I have two cars that I'm racing now so definitely going to do this instead of buying seats for both cars. Just keep the seat stored and swap out to which ever car I'm racing that day
