Prod Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 I went to Beaver Springs Dragway tonight, looking to pull some good times because I finally figured out how to launch my car. To put things in perspective, BSD is a very slow track; it's slightly uphill. I have a friend who runs consitent 14.2's at Pittsburgh but can't manage better than a 14.6 at Beaver. Legacy GT wagon, 5EAT, AP Stage 1, no weight reduction (spare tire still in) 15.638 @ 92.79 (oops) 15.641 @ 91.87 (oops again, but good enough to smoke a RX-8 ) 15.224 @ forgot (200lb friend in the car, gave him the slip) 15.063 @ 92.41 (Finally, a decent launch) 14.913 @ 93.63 (Good shifting this time added into the equation) 14.844 @ 94.70 (Broke out 14.9 dial, but still in the bracket) 14.776 @ 95.23 (Broke out the 14.8 dial again... oops in a good way) Track conditions: 80-85*F, very humid.

edmundu Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Nice runs! Taking the weather & location into consideration, plus a full weight wagon I would say you have a strong running LGT! Wait til we get some better air, and for sure you'll be in the low 14's @97+ mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melayout Posted July 24, 2005 Share Posted July 24, 2005 Nice video. You should check your ATF fluid, and I suggest changing it, cause all that brake torquing boiled your ATF and has probably sheared it down. I keed I keeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
