Me ftl.
 
Apparently, I suck at drag racing. :nod:

Got my very first run in tonight at Atco, and managed to run oh so slow.

14.452 at 105, yesssssssssss oh and an awesome 2.5 60'. :rofl:

I enjoyed it though and am looking forward to actually running a time respectable for my car.

NJ Torque 05-20-2009 12:28 AM

owned.

is that WITH a tire, too?

NastyEllEssWon 05-20-2009 12:29 AM

good job. glad to see you made it out to the track. :lol::lol::lol::lol:

LTb1ow 05-20-2009 12:30 AM

Yup, no burnout, on wet MTs. Hit the limiter through first and second.

NastyEllEssWon 05-20-2009 12:32 AM

why did you go through the waterbox with mt's?

LTb1ow 05-20-2009 12:33 AM

Have to at Atco, and I was a newb and got all rushed into staging, IDK, I was trying to do what the guy next to me was doing, cept he was an AWD suby. Sooooo fml.

NastyEllEssWon 05-20-2009 12:35 AM

you should be able to drive around the water box? hell at least to back your back tires in. wet front tires never helped anyone.



but damn man. 14's????

LTb1ow 05-20-2009 12:37 AM

Pretty much.

It felt kinda dead up top, and I had a feeling it needs a fuel pump, so that may help if it is running lean up top. And or also, I kinda didn't know where the track ended, so again, newbie is I.

Jersyboyy 05-20-2009 12:37 AM

i ran 13.6 trapping 101 with 6 good cyls in a "turd gen" stock auto trans stock stall open rear with 3.08 gears bald street tires lmao

60' could def go down a bunch, thatll knock time off your et, plus u trapped 105 thats a mid to low 13 second car if you practice more

So are you the new buster or is it still jam?

NastyEllEssWon 05-20-2009 12:38 AM

ricers make excuses...just suck it up. you ran mid 14's. boo. driver mod ftw....maybe you should let alex get a crack at that :lol:

LTb1ow 05-20-2009 12:38 AM

Yup, I am embarrassed, but it was a cool thrill.

NJ Torque 05-20-2009 12:39 AM

i go thru the water on my et streets... yet i have skinnys tho

No one is making excuses... I posted a horrible time, if I had excuses I wouldn't have posted the time. I just enjoyed myself and figured someone may get a laugh at my times.

NastyEllEssWon 05-20-2009 12:40 AM

i hope you dont mind but quoted for sig :twisted:


im just hassling you. its all in good fun

LTb1ow 05-20-2009 12:41 AM

Jersyboyy 05-20-2009 12:43 AM

yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. i still dont understand how the hell you managed that. how freaking bad did you spin off the line?

LTb1ow 05-20-2009 12:44 AM

Like I said, banged the limiter in 1st and 2nd. Lots of spin, prob a better burnout than the puny one I attempted pre stage wise.

NastyEllEssWon 05-20-2009 12:48 AM

so when do you get your 14 second club title? :wink:

Masonite 05-20-2009 12:52 AM

don't feel bad. my very first run was much worse than yours, if you can imagine. 16.2s @ 86mph :-P. that's in my current vehicle--305, 5-speed, 3.73 posi, street tires (mildly spun). i definitely need to practice, but i had a lot of fun, and that's worth something.

no, you cant drive around it at Atco. Thats why you continue spinning as far as you can go.

NJ346 05-20-2009 05:25 AM

looks like I shoulda took the truck out. All i would of had to do was tree you and I would have taken the win lol. Looks like you should have a 13.0 car if you can get that 60' down to a 1.8. Should be a good run with you on a 100-125 shot vs me on motor.

probably faster than that, like he said he spun through second, so it probably spun to at least 150 feet..........the calculation for the 60' gets it to a low low 13, but i would guess you can add a couple more tenths for the distance past the 60' he spun.......i would venture to say a solid run would net him a 12.7 or 12.8

sweetbmxrider 05-20-2009 07:34 AM

yeah there are some issues with the car like hitting the limiter, losing it on the top end, oh and doin a burn out :lol: next time matt is gunna spray too :rofl:
