Posted: Thu Aug 17, 2006 10:46 am Post subject: 15.621 second 1/4 mile in an autobox 'lude |
|
|
My JDM 1995 Honda Prelude 2.2 Si VTEC BB4 Automatic racing up the drag strip. Finish: 15.621@89 mph.
The car is stock, except an air filter (Pipercross), de-cat pipe, high-flow exhaust (Peco).
On this run, I had a tent, sleeping bag, barbecue, 3 litres of water, 5 litres of motor oil, and shopping in the boot. It was my last run of the day, and I decided to just do ONE more, to see if I could improve my launch.
I beat Jules' 1990 EK Civic 16i down the strip. He was well gutted. |

My first time ever at Santa Pod (03/09/06), I had to shift into 3rd 1000rpm early to make sure it went in and ran 16.1@86mph  Must get it fixed and try again

The wheels were spinning until mid 2nd gear before I could get traction. I tried softening the shocks and lowering the tyre pressures to 22psi but still couldn't crack it into the 13s. |
