Welp, i ended up killing mr. V8 killer and his nissan
Long story short...well kinda, i was the first in line. Then up shows three ricer guys in three riced out cars. One of them, the one next to me was a 240SX Nissan, turbocharged. I'm up at the gate watching the TnT racing going on as they look over my car. So when i go back to my car i see he has written 'V8 Killer' out of the dirt on his back glass and swapped for some drag radials
. I asked what it ran, he came back with 14.8 'but now i got more boost and sticky tires'...he's gonna need a littttllee more than that to beat my 'big ol' 318
. So between registering and tech he ends up one pair of cars behind me. He talks to the guy next to me that he wants to run me, so they trade spots......
'lets go'
So we do our burnouts, and line 'em up
Light turns green and he just got smaller from there
pulled a 14.3 and he rana 15.1. So he wanted to go again...eh, fine with me. Rana 14.4 and he pulled a 15.7!
So much for being a V8 killer, it was then taken off his window after that. I guess maybe a V8 F150 killer...but notta 318
anyway, track times. My previous best was 14.391 @ 95.03 MPH. The D/A was 3,200feet for that night. Last night I rana 14.300 @ 96.14MPH at 5,100 D/A. So the slip doesnt show much, but the conditions are what showed the gain....
Corrected E/Ts & MPHs for sealevel..
14.391 @ 95.03 MPH @ 3,200ft turns into - 13.83 @ 98.9
14.300 @ 96.14 (last night) 5,100ft - 13.39 @ 102
not too shabby for sucha basic 318. i wasnt happy because i wanted the 13sec slip, but we're still messing with it. got some things to work out with it..
Only lost once outta my 4 runs, i ran the turbo 240sx twice, a modded SVT Lightning got me pretty good the second half of the track, and a 340 challenger. waiting for my friend to send video
