I struggled to pass physics! LOL
The "etc etc" refers to varibles , which there is.That much we know , and its all up to the driver to squeeze the best possible time out of their car for that 1/4 run :)
Lets not get hooked up on EXACT figures and theories fellas - is it a simple answer of " its the driver not the car" ?!? :p
As EG5 said Practice makes perfect !
Is the specs of your alignment attached to your first post the current wheel alignments settings? because -2,-3 degrees is quite alot.. considering there will be minimal contact patch and only small 205 wide tyres i guessing not much of it is getting to the ground.
the -2,-3 degrees might look nice (bling) and work well around corners for circuit but on a drag strip 0 degrees camber or a tad positive like +0.5camber will do you wonders for the launch to improve your 60ft's.
greater contact patch of tyres to the ground = more traction = better 60ft = better 1/4 mile times haha.
anyways that my 2cents aleast you went out and had a go.. keep it up practice makes perfect ;)
guys , went out tonight again, was fun as usual , met up with all the honda boys , had four runs with hondas hehe, 3 times against NSX , 4th time with hi comp EG hehe.
The result was still dissappointing , first run, went straight in to the race , no time to lower my tyre pressure, did 14.7@100mph, 60ft ****ng 2.7, felt so shitty
second run , still shit ,14.6@ 99mph, 60 ft 2.6 again , ****ng 60ft , i hate them
then third run, after talked to joe from hi comp and john , benson them , i took their advice and focus on the detail instead of rushing into it , i got the 60ft 2.23, felt good,cos i got hugh camber at front and shit tyres , but but can you believe i missed shifting the second , after i missed then i was like **** , wanted to give up that run , then i changed my mind so put back into second rev from 4000rpm or something out of vtec range , i ended up pulling 14.5@97mph, felt so ****ed , as i never missed second before, can u believe just that time.....
Then fourth run, i went back to rush it again , maybe it is because i lined up with hi comp EG , made me nervous , i ****ed up launch again , 60ft 2.6 again, but i hit my pb this time 14.4 @101.4mph, so yeah, that's all, felt pitty
Hopefully third time lucky, I learned hips, so nice to meet all the guys , see you guys next time.
jeremy still learning hahahahlet me drive it next time
Good time Jeremy. Just keep practicing. :thumbsup:
very good mph :)
ha jeremy you stress freak. So many things you have to blame on lol !
Thats your problem - everyone else goes and just drives but you are worried about your camber or your toe or your haircut or something lol. RELAX AND RUN :)
rev out those gears longer and shift quicker you are almost there
