Finally managed to get some more track time with my 91. I was pretty nervous about the rear end (I've broken a ton of stuff back there, and it's made me gun shy) and my tenativeness showed in my 2.2 - 2.3 sixty foot times. Best of the night was a 12.2 @ 119. I made 4 or 5 passes, all 12.2 or 12.3 at 118 or 119.
I was at Capitol Raceway in Crofton, MD last Friday night. I dunno what the DA was, but it was pretty hot. I was pretty happy with the 119 MPH considering the heat and extreme noobness of the driver. The stock tach in my car only goes to 6K so I went ahead and shifted at 6000 for all but the last pass. I didn't data log, so I dunno exactly what RPM the shifts were taking place. I ran it out a little more in each gear for the last pass (probably 1/4 inch past 6K on the tach) and the car went from bottom 119 (119.10 - 119.15) to 119.96. I think it would have gone 120 pretty easily if I had revved it a bit higher, but I was nervous without the data logger or an accurate tach. Hopefully, I'll get to go again tomorrow. If I can get the 60 down to what I was doing previously (1.7 - ish) the car should turn a better ET. I'll report back what happens. 315 nittos. No wheel spin issues, happy with the tire so far. |

Thanks for the compliments but that's a pretty poor run.
It was raining last night so I didn't go to Capitol. I might hit Cecil today or MIR tomorrow depending on how things shake out over the weekend. |
