If he was at the track, I'm unaware of it.. I didn't go to the track unfortunately.

I saw him on the road. I have to give it up to Nathan because it takes a lot for me to compliment a Honda/Acura.. With that said, WOW! That car is sick in every aspect.

 

Yup, it was pro engines. When I had the wrx, I had to get a bolt cut since it was stripped - so I stopped over there for a quick second.

But about the drag strip - I really enjoyed it. I think I'm going to bring beer next time, and sit up on the hill to watch. I saw 4N MUSCLE run (red eclipse that started this thread) - I saw you 89silude, when your friend was parking his car I think. I don't know what you look like, but there was I think 4 guys that got out of the car. It was a fun time, and even my GF really enjoyed it. Does anyone know how much it costs to actually spectate on friday's?

 

...and furthermore, how much will it cost to get in and run on the track?

 

i was the smaller white guy...the mexican dude owns the SRT-4 and the huge white guy w/ us has a red 04 wrx w/ wheels and BOV. he loves to go around blowing off at ppl. hahaha. i think we should make a thread here in the western va forum for ppls pics so we know what we all look like. LOL





yeah, i hear ya...and i would be pretty pissed if i was running b/c of the way the wetbox is set up. unless i overlooked something i didn't see anyway to get around it.


and i finally meet "spoolin4"...i had never seen him before...turns out i'm in a class with him at western. LOL, i would have gone all semester and not know it was him.

 

My best run was 8.9@90mph, lol ZERO traction there. Very saddened to be quite honest. I think Marshall ran an 8.9 at best too, traction was just simply awful.

 

How many times did you run? I saw you fuck up pretty bad once, haha. You threw your hands up - and I think it was that same time that you might have missed 2nd. I think you still ran a 10.02 on that run. That was on your third run I think. I like the car though. There were def. some pretty nasty cars there... think the lowest I saw was a 6.00 - from a car.

89silude, doubt that you remember.. but I was a taller guy, spiked hair - with a short blonde girl, a short brown haired girl, and a taller skinny blonde haired guy. Next time people go we should all meet up or something.

 

o.0 short brown haired girl huh? yeah, i remember now! LOL, j/k

next time we need a sign that says "DRAGVA CREW" hahaha

 

No traction with AWD? Damn....

 

Yep, at NB on my small 16g, with 18psi, pump gas, Safc, and 550's, I ran a damn 8.022. In the past two years I think I had pulled perhaps one 60' that wasnt below 2 seconds, most of them around 1.7-1.8, however I just simply couldnt hook at all there. As for the 2nd gear miss, I believe my syncro is going out, it has been grinding really bad during downshifts lately, o well though, I think a single bajinxed shift was the least of my worries last night. Jeff I think ran a damn 8.1 if I was told right in his 240 with slicks on, marshall got like an 8.9, it was just bad. If you cant tell im still just urked about it all, I have been so looking forward to going to the track and getting a new time on my current setup since its changed so drastically, and then it turns out completely different from what I expected, just kinda urks/saddens me. I dont head to the track often for fear of breaking things, so I think next time I go will likely be MIR this summer, a track that should have good traction.

 

It's a brand new track, it's gonna take some time to lay down some rubber on the track.. I'm sure things have to settle and "break in"..
