Re: Natural Bridge 7/22
GaRn.... did your times improve as the night progressed?..... We were running pretty close to each other I think. I had to jet early, but I was totally disappointed with my own times... half a second slower than normal... i guess thats what 19" wheels do to ya though. Anyways, nice car man.

Re: Natural Bridge 7/22
Hey guys, nah my times actually just got worse haha.. my first run was my best, 9.3xx at like 75-76 or so, 2.2xx 60 ft, best I could do after that was a 9.4xx..
I was kinda dissappointed, but considering I am untuned, unintercooled, on 5 psi, and the shitty tires I have, its not to bad I guess..
Just have to finish my project.. isntalling my WB right now so I can tune it before the dyno

Re: Natural Bridge 7/22
My best run was a 9.4 at 75mph I had a 2.3 60' on that one.
I did notice that in one run I did get a 2.2 60' but it was 9.6 so I figure I either shifted to earlier or maybe to much wheel hop. I thought maybe shifting earlier would help in 1st but it only gave me 9.6-9.7's.. I ended up just easing it out at 3500-4000 and going from there. Wheel hop was bad all the way to red line in First, and second just kind of skipped along. The tires were no help either I think after this my Yoko ES100's are shot.. Time for some new ones anyway.
I think I ran about a dozen or so times. Its not often I get to the track so I figured I would get what runs I could in.

I did. I was at Eastside Speedway before I got to the Bridge last night.. Made 5 runs there and my times were worse. Plus it was just too crowded I think they were doing Bracket Racing and Pro Street and FootBrake. I just stayed long enough to get my five runs in (time trials) and then came to the Bridge. It definately wasnt a Test n Tune kind of track. I think the Bridge is better for that but like you said being higher elevation the times are gonna be higher.
