went to last weds night drag racing @ Sears Point with 132 whp the best run of the night was:
60' 2.535
330' 6.838
1/8 10.412
mph 68.02
1000 13.525
1/4 16.147
mph 86.08
60' time was 2.5's all night long. sucks. but it was consistent all night i was the bracket winner! went through 5 rounds. i think the car is a little bit heavier than i thought. my guess is around 2200 lbs or so and ~2370 lbs race weight. removing power steering pump and ac system next.

ha, i forgot to lower the pressure tire pressure last week. i dropped it to 30 psi and then 20 psi this week. the tires are old and cracking but 60' improved to 2.3's. best run this week now with 145 whp and 111 ft-lbs:
60' 2.350
330' 6.562
1/8 10.011
mph 70.34
1000 13.035
1/4 15.606
mph 85.33 (i had to brake check near the light i might've broke out otherwise) on a 15.53 dial. best mph 88.99. it's much warmer this week than last week... i think it could've hit 89.5 mph if it was as cold as last week. the valve train picked up a solid 3 mph over the quarter. not bad. 3/10th of et improvement came from reduced tire pressure and better launch. about 3/10th were from power gain.
i got eliminated in 2nd round by .0326 :-(
best mph run:
60' 2.393
330' 6.624
1/8 10.070
mph 70.57
