Two races today! Yippee. I just got the boost situation fixed and now it builds off the line and holds 20psi dead even.
Anyways saw an STI pull into a parking lot. Asked him if he'd like to give it a go against me. He agreed and we (I had my friend in the car as well - another 150lbs ) went off to the bypass.
The first race we went from 50mph, I was in 2nd, I nailed it as soon as the STI did. Boost cutout, CHIT!! It pegged cutout twice from 2nd gear to a little after 3rd. He had I'd say 4-5/10 on me.
Turn around and try it from 20mph, 1st gear this time. I figured I can spool up quicker and plus his AWD wont help him. We both go at the same time again, he missed 2nd, I pause, then nail it again. Again he passes me and just guessing, I'd again say 4/10. Pretty kool run.
Next race was with an '05 Mustang GT hardtop. At a 4 lane light, the road turns down into 2. The Mustang is sitting behind me and we're both in the lane that ends. Light goes green and I lightly get on it... enough to let him get in front of the adjacent car and pass me. He doesn't bite, so I move over and leave it in 2nd doing about 40mph. I see him get to my bumper so I punch it.... ergh, slow spool!!!! Wait... wait....and wait.... 20 pounds finally comes on. Weee!!!! He put about a 1/2 length on me when my boost came on. I pull back 3rd and now at his door passing him. I look into his window as I pass and his eyes were wide as hell! I then saw him start to laugh his a$$ off. hehe. I continue to put a length on him.
So on pump gas I'm between 13.9's and 13.3's. I think with the race gas and some traction I'll get some low 13's for sure. Going racing this Wed. the 27th, and the dyno on the 30th. Stock up on race gas for the rest of the year... I need it.
