Yep, I went...did bad, really freaking bad.
I drove the car all week, and thought my starting issue was gone. I'm not sure what it is about Bithlo, but every time I go, shut the car off in the staging lanes, it refuses to start. As soon as I leave the track and get home, it's fine. I even drove the car daily all week to and from work...never had the issue.
But the only run I got in was so bad I really don't even want to say what it was. I did a nice little clean of the tires at the line nothing crazy. Just a little tire smoke. Launched waaaaayyyyyy tooo hard (@ 2600rpm) ended up with 2.3 60ft. Said screw it to 1st gear short shifted to 2nd. When it hooked up I ended up breaking the rear loose again. Short shifted again figured the run was all F'd up anyway. Hooked 3rd @ 3,000rpm. Then planted the throttle. Ran it to 5000rpm and broke loose again...then short shifted to 5th (yes skipping 4th)and just planted it.
Ended up with a get this 12.1@119
My best so far is a
[email protected] w/1.9071 60ft
Keep in mind I run 35psi on stock 6yr old tires. They are hard as hell. The car idled 40min between runs(read major heat soak) And I can't drag race to save my life.
As far as mods, nothing crazy...some heads from a Bull**** head porter and 11.6:1cr forged pistons setup for a 300shot of N20(not ever using)...then a touch of exhaust work. Stock intake system as well
I make a over 550rwhp N/A According to the drag racers I should hit 130mph in the 1/4. Granted, that's if I could hook up and temps were not hit the upper 90's and I didn't have to let the car idle between runs.
The right lane, ***** so bad at that track, I'm using the left from now on. I couldn't hook up AT ALL.
I was so pissed my start issue came back, I had a ****ty run, so
I just left after that.
If someone in the area wants to give me a hand to figure this out, that would be great. I'm thinking it has to be something with the clutch safty switch or maybe the Alarm. I'm not too sure.
