First Time 1/4 Mile with a Turbo Charged D-series Hints??

Hows lunching at about 3000rpms from my first time?

on my normal 14inch stockies i lowered the psi to 22 and launched at around 3200rpm which got a 2.2 sixty footer.
i no our cars are heaps different but i hope that helps a bit

Ok

Finally ran

Got two runs with my car died mid track like it did few nights ago on the third :o

First run 14.8 @ 156kmh

Second Run 14.6 @ 158kmh

I just can't get the takeoffs right lol

nice work Luke ! your third run would of dropped another .1 or .2 :)

Why did it die?

So if you ever get a chance to get out to 1/4mile and run times, please post them up as a good comparison to B swaps.

lmao, Jimmy right on the money.

And in all fairness, it was his first time, but mph don't lie.....14.6@98mph
what 60ft'r where you getting?

I give respect to Luke though, his done his shit without the shit talking. With a bit more practice you'll get better. Well done for getting out there.

Yeah my 60 were like 2.55 2.50 crap

Also I'm running on 17" with a heavy body kit

What rpm you launching at? did u lower your front tyre pressure and raised the rear?

definitely room for improvement. once you get your 60ft'r down to 2.1 or 2.2 which is decent on real street tyres, you should definitely see low 14's or even a high 13 pass

Seems like the Benjamins stock B18CR isn't doing too bad against the "130kw" D-Turbo.

I say nothing :) I let results speak for themselves. Consistant 100mph and 14.00's is enough said for the B series brigade :)

Luke is doing great...JUST to get out there ! MOAR of you sop shit talking and get those cars to the strip :)
