Legend Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Come up to Bandimere sometime this summer. There is usually one or two times a bunch of us try to make it. You'll see what a few mods can do to your times. My '05 LGT My '07 Supercharged Shelby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustangendsley Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I will stick to track racing. I tried to drag race last year at our track and I could not leave on the green to save my life. I think my best reaction was 2 sec. I was stock running 93 mph in the 1/4 mile. I think 15.1 sec was my best. I love road course driving better.

All you needed was a stage 1 flash and to drop the clutch at 4k. The greater TQ would make a big difference in your launch and 1-2 power. EDIT: Go stage 2! Go stage 3!!! (I am!)

carguyco Posted April 12, 2010 Author Share Posted April 12, 2010 Just some extra notes: I didn't even check my tire pressure... I ran w/ heater on and heater off My favorite f-up...I ran in S mode once..... I was the only Subaru at the track racing....there was an STi running around the pits.... The neon was the only other 4 banger..... There were 2 Pontiac Gran Prixs Gran Prixes (wtf is plural for that) and they were faster than me as well....superchargers whining like a mofo....14.4 was the fastest I saw one of them run. Pontiac G8 is slower than me....15.6 Honda Prelude and I together on a run....mid 90's car riced out...he even did burn outs previous to his runs...hilarious actually.....he was 10 car lengths ahead of me when I hit 3rd gear and then I ate him up to beat him by 2 seconds....my son thought that was funny. BTW all these runs were done w/ my 140 lb skinny teenager in the passenger seat...we really were just out there to have a good time...and we did.....he taped the Prelude run I think...or maybe the Eagle Talon run.. Somebody had an Eagle Talon that was built..he ran 11.04 against me and I was clueless he was going to be that fast....I was shocked when he jumped off the line.... He was logging his runs I spoke w/ him after and he was a bit vague but it is very very fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rao Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Glad to hear you had a good time at the track, it is usually a l ot of fun Forget stage 2, you need to move to a lower elevation Rob IF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CAR YOU SHOULD NEVER DRIVE IT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LosAngelesLGT Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Pontiac G8 is slower than me.... We see G8 run 13s all day long at the track with middle aged ladies driving them. REALLY!!! The neon and you were not the only 4cyl per your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LosAngelesLGT Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 forgot about the Honda since he was such a jacka** ^Full of WIN! I love it. I need a license plate frame that says that. That is histerical. (That way the honda's can look at it as I disappear in front of them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carguyco Posted April 12, 2010 Author Share Posted April 12, 2010 Burnouts in a 17 second prelude w/ a fart can....I wish I hadn't forgot to tape the look on his face as I blew by him....and the look on his face as he jumped in front of me...and the look on my face when he jumped in front of me...and the look on my 17 year olds face as we passed him.....and the look on the prelude drivers face in my rear view mirror going down the cooldown lane.....and so on and so on...

EPIC! Ultimately CLASSIC! Seriously, without having a 600hp beast, what better memory could you create with your son?

carguyco Posted April 12, 2010 Author Share Posted April 12, 2010 My son doesn't get too excited about anything...very calm 17 year old kid....his facial expressions were awesome....and then when my buddies 1000hp beast took off from the line the first time I thought he would sh*t himself. He can't wait until I start modding almost as much as I can't wait...he wants to win some races instead of watching cars move away from us.

GetErDun Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 That will happen someday I'm sure, but for now, I'm stuck here! And happyto be stuck I might add. Congrats on your first runs! I actually like your area (my inlaws live there)! I drove my leggy there last thanksgiving. We liked it so much last time are looking for a vacation home in Florissant\Lake George area.
