19 second 1/4 mile b6t...

[Grey Vw]

Honestly I can't believe it passed tech.

Were the tires shooting sparks?

No, the cords started showing when I went for my third run and then they said I can't run.

The tech guy wasn't very bright, he didn't even notice my relocated battery and that it was a turbo car. Then his buddy came a long and now I need a fire proof jacket, battery box, and master cut off switch.

[fastivaB6TG25MR]

why the fire proof jacket?

[Grey Vw]

why the fire proof jacket?

Because of the non OEM turbo. It also applies to any non OEM supercharger and nitrous.

I wish I wouldn't have told the tech guy I had a turbo.

I almost won my bracket Got second place out of a four car class... And I did not suck at driving this time.

I finally got the hang of it but can't run out first or second gear all the way because the car gets really squirelly(sp). The track staff guy tells me I need to control my car better And I need a clutch now... it slips really bad in third. My best e.t was 16.165 at 89.27 mph and my best trap was 90.42.

I've gotten my sixty foot somewhat consistent. This is all on dry rotted 185's and doing a 2nd gear burnout. I don't suck at driving it's just that the the tires are that bad. I got 2.3 60ft time with my dads Jetta tdi that runs 17's.

Get some fresh tires and those 60' times will drop. I can get 2.1 60's in my car on 195/50/15's

Every 1/10th in the 60' = 2/10th's at the big end.

16.1 is kinda slow for a B6T, but its better then 19's

Why are you doing a burnout?

Why are you doing a burnout?

It helps...

Watch my future telling powers.

Bhazard: Burnouts are only for drag radials and slicks.

[eurotiva]

I do second gear burn outs in mine. Different tires respond different.

My drag radials have to burn for a while. My street tires just get "cleaned off"

Keep racing it, you'll get faster. Lot's of room to improve.

I started @ 17.7 with a stock festy

15.8 with a b3t

14.0 with a b8t

13.3 with a bpt

Im going to start going every week since the car works now. I'm just doing a quick burnout to like you said to "clean things off". It's amazing how much pebbles get stuck in your tires.

I went again after fixing my suspension issue. Ebay coil overs took away 1 second and added 2 mph to my 1/4 mile time

My clutch feels like it's slipping again in all gears after 1st and I just replaced it but my mph is higher when it does.

[bhazard]

Still got a long way to go dude.

[getnpsi]

How do you have those coilovers adjusted? Whats the front rate? I'm thinking about buying just rears (some reason i see lots of just honda rears for sale on CL) and spending a little more on the front with more conventional pieces.

Whats the RPM/MPH at the top of third gear?

Play with your suspension more and you should see a 14.

[Grey Vw]

I installed my coil overs backwards. I put the 450's in the back and the 350's in the front.

The top of 3rd gear is 6,800 rpms at 89-90ish mph. I still need to fix my boost/no power until 4k rpms before I run 14's.
