Default Finaly went to the track

and it was not as good as I expected but not bad for the first time with that car. I still have to learn how to get a good launch and not brake trannies. Also doing granny shifts didnt help the times.
After putting the third tranny in I really didnt want to brake it so I didnt lock up the all wheel drive and it fried the whole first and second and I mean fried smoke and all.

Reaction time ........ .82s
Sixty foot time ...... 1.98s
1/4 time ............. 12.9
MPH .................. 112
Goin to a dyno on thursday and to the track on friday to practice my launches.

Default Nice!

Hey Radim,

I recall you're in the toronto area correct? Well there's a group of us that hang out on an email list (over 120 actually), and I'm sure many of them (including me) would love to see youre beast of a car!

If you're interested in subscribing to the list, check out groups.yahoo.com and search for "audigt" (greater toronto audi list). We plan meets and have general discussions on the "audigt" list, and the "audigt-announce" list is for general announcments. YOu can either subscribe on an email by email basis (this can get frustrating since there can be quite a bit of traffic on the list, maybe 30 emails/day), but you can also subscribe on a daily digest (single summary email) and a "web only" view.

I recommend the "web only" option as it's jsut like a message board, where you log into the group, read posts and can reply etc. You do however need a yahoo ID for this...

Anyway, hopefully you'll join and we can get to see that car of yours at one of the meets...!

Default Wow

That's pretty cool. I am not familiar with your setup, so when I saw your ET I was pretty surprised, lol. I thought it was the 1000 FT time or something...

How much boost? How heavy is that car? You must be making very good power.

Default OT but

We have a very similar Honda list based in New England!

Our list is called DFH~Decal Free Hondas emphasizing performance over "ricey" mods. We also have meets and try to get together at sanction events like Autox, Road Course Lapping, or some drag...

Sounds cool.

Take care,

Default I don't know about you, but..

Last time I went to the track in New england there was maybe a handful of cars running in the 12s. Thats awesome. There was a guy at the track running what I think was a 5000QT wagon who was in the low 13s. I'm sure he is doing something similar to you.
