yeh, im proud of my 18sec run. suprisingly, i learnt the most from that run over my other runs. backed up by a 14.7 on the same night, im still not happy wiht the time
How weight was reduced( what did u take out)...
And what difference did it make in times???
Ive never reduced the weight of any of my rides and im so close to 13s NA,
Im tempted to crack a 13 that way lol:)
From experience take out as much weight as you can. Reducing weight is HEAPS cheaper than doing mods (cause its free) and makes a huge difference. Think about how much your passenger and rear seats weigh for instance. Take out everything you don't need and see what time you run compared to previous outings. You will see your mph increase and your ET fall.
All it takes is a little time.
i dont think it takes that much skill for the 1/4 unless you are really into the 12's or somehting... at best your skills will give u a .4 at the 14-16's mark from the very best to the almost worst driver (provided they are the same weight)
Blitz: I tend to disagree with you on 1/4 mile doesn't take much skill.
My mate in his Twin Turbo Supra 1996 model 6spd with fmic/exhaust 214rwkw.
First outing at WSID he ran:
14.4 and 14.2 best the whole night! with average of 2.3 60ft
The Second outing last wednesday at wsid he ran:
13.7 with a 2.0 60ft (NO CHANGES AT ALL TO ANYTHING)
So just with practice thats 0.5sec over the qtr mile without any changes just the same driver with some additional skill/practice.
(Keep in mind that Stock Standard Twin turbo supras should run 13.9 or there abouts with a experienced driver)
my 2cents.
its ok not to agree... im talkiin S@#@t anyways hahaQuote:

I agree with Blitz to a degree... anyone can get lucky with a one off.Quote:
