Official: Fastest Festiva's "PROOF" thread

[eurotiva]

Good job Mike (sasquatch) and Mike (flyin4stroke) we need to put those slicks on your car. Sonic is holding it down for a b6t and stock turbo.

I was off on my guess, but I think that's what is capable of right now. It'll only get faster.

It takes a lot to get down into the 13s and 12s. I tried for 2 years to get into the 12s.

greg, your 60' time is awesome, i really wish i could have got a better launch... 195/50/15 dont grip that well lol... what was your best 60' time on street tires? IIRC you and i had the same tires at one point? kumho ecsta ast... i got down to a 2.2 60' after i brought them down to 15 psi lol... even with how light the festiva is, it still was buldging the sidewall a little bit lol...

[eurotiva]

My best on fresh street tires is a 2.01. Best on sicks 1.96.

ya i gotta get my traction problems sorted out... with the trap speed im getting i should be getting a way faster time...

^You sir need to stop unless you use the NAWSS

[Flyin4stroke]

I've had faster runs just not time to put up.
I need slicks

[Grey Vw]

Or more boost!

[sasquatch]

so i brought the slicks with and got to the track... go to put them on and they dont fit!!! the rim hits the new coilovers i put in.... lucky a guy off the protege forum was there and had a set of wheel spacers that he lent me i only got in 2 passes with the slicks so im still learning on how to launch with them lol... but on the last run i got down to 13.6 @ 106mph im getting a low 13 high 12 sec trap speed but getting a mid 13 sec pass, having no traction sucks



also got my 60' down to 2.1

[Flyin4stroke]

Nice! What size slicks are you running?

I ran a 13.9 on the stock 12 inch rims, you should be able to run a low 13 with that trap for sure. Are you running full interior?

What's your launch RPM?

[sasquatch]

i dont know... im not using my 2 step right now, im just reving it up and slipping the clutch a little bit off the line... i think im launching at about 4500 ish rpm each time... im looking at the tree, not my tach lol.... im a bit scared to use my 2 step right now, i dont wanna break my trans lol...

i have taken out my back seat and spare tire, and pulled the passengers seat out too, im running a light weight racing seat far me but other than that i still got most of the factory int... all plastics, carpet and dash...

[sasquatch]

im number 8282 as allways... i would like to have the other time more tho lol...

[Grey Vw]

Nice. I would try to break that but Im not breaking anymore trannies.
