hey Panda ... cool.. what mph was your mate running?
i'd have to ask him.
i'm getting a SiR b18c wacked in mine atm so i had a few ppl telling me about your time at heathcote :p
some 11sec trap speed there.
Panda CRX - cool. another 18c crx .. remember to upgrade your brakes as well! there's a few around eh. Where are you? Melb? I actually got a ITR halcut and transfered as much gear across as possible.

Hey EG5 ... I wish ...:)
My aim is to break into the 12's ...
Prior to the latest work. I was doing a 13.6 on standard internals, intake and header & exhaust mods, slicks. Was getting a 1.9xx 60ft time then ...
Car's really put together for track not drags but Im curious as to what times I can run...
I can't get a clean launch .. either bog a little or bunny hop everywhere!!!!
you do have some nice top end there man! keep it up and you will see some nice time!:thumbsup:Quote:

its going alright - and yes - the car is getting done - slowly!
I'll give you a call sometime :) PM me your number... :)
Mike!
Phil, your mph is enough for 11's as someone mentioned before. Ur rpms are way too low for your launch, check your suspension settings.
With the street tyres on the tegs, they were able to launch at about 6,800 rpms, so you should be launching above that.
Sinstr - Hey Mike ... yeah .. kinda miss the motorplex with it's smooth surface and facilities ... tracks over here are a little rough
Give me a buzz when you can ...
Pornstar - how's it going ? Mate I wish for 11's !!!
Yeah .. thinking about it I was launching on average at around 5500 rpms and the highest I tried launching was 6500 rpms...
What clutches were the 2 tegs running? can withstand the constant abuse?
Phil, with my 12.3 pass when i had the civic, I launched at 7,200 rpms, with MTs on you should be launching about 8k rpms, but surely ur suspensions need to be tuned man.
To give you a better idea, when I ran 12.3 on those street tyres, the Traps were about 119mph, and I still had more in it, just couldnt control all the wheel spin.
The clutches on their cars are custom made for me to a really simple design, that works. They handled the abuse fine :)

Mine were screwed and used to result in a lot of wheel hop when launching.
Fulcrum have them for about $50. Or you could look into making up a new crossmember and radius rods with spherical bushings.
