Wellllll???????????????????

***ZGN*** · 11-02-2009, 03:47 PM

we'll I don't think BNR broke anything

Had a few rotaries show up, Phil with his Cosmo, Me+wife with My FD, StaticPat FD, BNR+wife 1st gen, and 2 I don't remember their names, a Mazda RX-8 Blue that won an award and a primer painted 2nd gen. Nzx20 got us all pizza, that he is going to be repaid for!
I think Bryan'sbest time of the day was around 11.2 I am sure he'll post up soon. I have some video I'll post in the next day or so!

Bryan@BNR · 11-02-2009, 04:14 PM

Yeah the car is hooking up now. I can tell a huge difference from the last IFO. My best ET was a 11.21 at 126.28 MPH on ET Streets. That was a lift and shift pass. My first qualifying pass I missed 3rd gear and ran an 11.8 at 121 mph. Third qualifying pass I tried flat shifting the 1-2 which went well, but at the end of 3rd I was so into it my finger was on the antilag button from 3rd gear to the end of the pull lol. And I was impressed that it went 11.63 at 110. Ended up qualifying number 2 in the street class behind Brad Grodi in his ttnitrous 300z. He ran a 10.98.

So I went up against a TT BMW in the first round of eliminations. I had in mind that I was going to flat shift this pass and it didn't work out too well! mistimed the 1-2 shift and didn't go into gear. Finally it went into gear and he was 2 cars ahead so I reeled him in and then shifted to 5th instead of 3rd. So disapointed in my driving. I should have just ran a mid 11 and just went through a few rounds without speed shifting. But I lost in the first round of eliminations.

My take offs were very strong, but the 4.88's in the rear make me shift before the 60ft mark. So I will be putting in some 4.30's here in the next few weeks so hopefully the car will be a solid 10 with a lift and shift.

lol =D it wasn't even that much man so don't worry about it, the shirt was enough

sk8world · 11-02-2009, 04:26 PM

So did Brad win the $$? Sounds like a fun weekend sorry I could not make it. Brian, did you run the 2 step? What were the 60 footers?

Brad won but it cost him the engine. The car left on a trailor.

I was shifting before the 60 ft and my best 60 ft was 1.625. 2 step and antilag were on and each 60 ft was consistant. I think a 4.30 gear will drop that 60 another tenth plus. It leaves the gate very hard. My buddy said he almost saw daylight under the front tires when I dropped the hammer!

sk8world · 11-02-2009, 05:10 PM

Nice! Its all about improving!

***ZGN*** · 11-02-2009, 06:08 PM

2nd and third run of the day for BNR

sk8world · 11-02-2009, 07:56 PM

Bryan, the Car left out well! Tell Brad he better be glad I was a no show..

So I need a 3rd member (center diff) for my small bearing 9 inch. Anyone??

Bryan@BNR · 11-02-2009, 08:17 PM

I think that second pass was a start of a 10 second pass until I left my finger on the antilag button lol. What can you do?

sk8world · 11-02-2009, 08:39 PM

go run the 1/8th and practice that 60 foot. All the numbers you need to know will come from the 1/8th. For my car to run 10.8-10.9's I have to go low 7's (7.1-7.3)

The FB went 7.21 1/8. I had a little spark blow out up top so that probably slowed it down a bit. I think some practice and it can be done. I was running about 19 psi on that 11.20 run.

sk8world · 11-02-2009, 09:28 PM

Get that 60 down to 1.5's or better and that pass should yield you that 10.

Makes me want my rx3 ready. Nothing like a light high powered rotary....

BTW I am going manual.. Going

***Herblenny*** · 11-02-2009, 09:37 PM

Mike,

slightly off topic... what parts are you looking for for your RX3? I met a guy who has some body parts..

Bryan@BNR · 11-03-2009, 11:57 AM

well ended up I did do damage to the engine in the dyno the weekend before last. I ran that event with rear rotor compression of 90-30-30. So I will have to pull and patch it up...
