Didn't go to Racelegal tonight, but WILL be at Barona tomorrow! See you there?

 

went....it was pretty good turnout. yall have fun at barona i will be on duty lol

 

Sorry bud, hoped you'd see this before if you went to see me run! I'm hoping for some good runs at Barona today!

 

I have to wait for my dad,, I will be leaving in about an hour and a half or so.

 

well how was it? you should have some vids up racing

 

No vids, I was alone. We made quite a few runs by the end of the night, and my best time came towards the end of the night when everything was hot from making circles, but I only brought my time down from a 9.22 to a 9.15. Tires didn't make a huge difference out there at Barona as I never had problems with traction there to begin with. I think at Racelegal, however, they would make a huge difference, so I will try them out there next time and see if I can get some more runs in and figure out how to get some better times.

 

don't make me drive your car and show you up!!!! lol i think with your set up you should be able to get to 8.6 or a bit lower. we will see

 

oh the higher elevation probobly didn't help much either haha

 

That set up from what i saw was capable of an 8.9 at a lower altitude track. He was power braking as high at the car would let him. Maybe if he would have turned everything off by holding the traction control button for 10 seconds or what ever. it might have been able to launch it a bit harder. Jason your MPH was nice. IIRC 77 and i think you hit 78mph at the end of the day. But with that MPH that car is not capable of an 8.6. When i ran 8.54 in my stock GTO i was trappng 83.7, which is along way from 78. Still for what it is and at baronas alitiude 9.1 is a very nice number! That stage 1 is a very nice upgrade for the HHR. Very nice solid gains out of it. I am considering in getting one. But I am afraid of hurting the tranny....

 

That would be fine with me, just let me know what you did so I can replicate it! I don't claim to be a drag racer, I try, have had little experience and no training, so I'm sure I could be doing something different to get better times!
