not that I am proud of this ET. I am impressed with the trap. It was 80º out not 90º+
MPH - 107.14
I ran an LS1 Camaro with bolt-ons. he ran 13.067@105 w/1.96 60ft.
He came up and talked after the race and wanted to know what I had done to the car. He couldn't believe a Honda traped higher then him. But I told him if he spun like I did he would have a higher trap then me.

Low 12? not with the Supercharger. & not with DR's.. Only slicks.

I would indeed expect mid-high 12's with slicks, but with that light weight, some mean driving, and some nice cool dry weather, I really do not think low-12's would be out of reach.
When my mechanic had a shoot in E'Town for MM&FF, they also let me run my car. Having the track to yourself is the absolute best. I went from 12.3's down to a 12.03, and the main change was where I was staging my car from and how I was heating the tires. Though I have shit-talked with him more often than not, Evan Smith was actually the one to help me that day on that.
So, aim for the stars man, and go right for the ****ing 11's! :D
You were speaking of upgrading to a turbo setup not long ago, yes?

So they tought you a few things huh...
Mid 12's with slicks and the right weather is possible.. But we will never know.
Yes I am upgrading to a turbo kit.
I bought a REVHARD kit with a t3/t04e turbo. I am going to initally run 11-12psi hoping for 280 Wheel HP. 280 should get me close to 11's. It "should" net me 115+ traps. But all we can do is wait and find out? :confused:
If that doesnt to it. Then I raise the boost a few pounds, adjust/tune the Engine Managment a little with the wideband o2 on the street and i'm ready to rock and roll. Then after this engine goes. Rods and pistons willl go in. 15psi will be the norm. :drunk:

Whats your raceweight Ryan?
Traps look GREAT, you'd surprise a whole lotta people on the street, including myself. My best to date is 109.5X, but I'd be willing to bet you'd pull me from a roll. Thats why I drag race ;)
You need to buy some traction, brah :D

No way would I pull on you. :p
Around 2800-3000lbs. w/me in it.
2390lbs stock.
200lbs for the motor.
70 for the supercharger.
50 system.
280 me.
These are all estimates except me and the stock weight of the car.

You'd probably be real surprised. From a first gear roll, you'd probably be toast, but I seriously dont doubt that we'd either be dead even or you pull me from a higher speed roll.
