1st track day coming up
 

Our club rented Atco Dragway (NJ) for June 7th. Hopefully we get some good weather and I can share some photos and time slips.

Sounds like a blast. Track rentals are so much better than fighting the crowds on Friday night. If this is your first time ever down a track, don't beat yourself up if the number is not what you think it should be. Still, with your hp/tq you should do well! Good Luck!

i had my first circuit track day at c.o.t.a in austin in my gen 5 ss stock vert, and have been to the drags allot, best advice, dont try to go all out on your fast pass lol

Ran a best of 11.34 @ 133. It’s a 10 second car with a drag radial. Look at the trap speed. I was breaking 100 in the 1/8th. It spun through first 3 gears. :(

That 133 mph puts you well into the 10's.

Thanks!!! Had a great time, but I don’t know if I’ll go drag car with it. Trying to get more into slipstream (roll racing).

It won’t let me post any videos.

My stats:

17 runs

Best RT .150
Best 60 2.109
Best 330 5.000
Best 1/8 7.050
Best 1/8 mph 103.7mph
Best 1000 9.636
Best ET 11.352
Best MPH 133.07mph

With drag radials she’s a 10.2 car all day.

17 runs!? Wowza

I ran a 10.54 at 133 mph with an M6 when I was at your exact power level. It may take a bit more than just drag radials to get your 60' time down where it needs to be. I added the full BMR drag suspension and Lakewood 90/10 shocks to shift the weight to the rear. However, you have a 10 sec car all day long my friend!

Here is my 10.5 sec run

For comparison sake here is my time slip for the 10.54 run

Well done Royal!! Yep, you get her to hook and better that 60ft and with that trap speed you got it bro! 10's all day. Nicely done

Yep. Private rental. I tell everyone I did 17 runs then drove it 2 hours home with the air conditioning on. Jennetty built an amazing car. :bow:

Thank you! I have done all the suspension mods, but I had a friend tell me to disconnect the front sway bar next time and go with different front struts.

Thanks!!

I had T/C off. I should have tried a run or two with everything on.
