Looked like fun....... Definitely some non-driving going on there, i thought some people were literally asleep at the tree. On the other hand that black car needs some wider/stickier tires on it i could see it easily running 11's with some traction. you might wanna tell him to bring some VHT next time.

Looks like lots of fun, I may have to join you guys sometime. By the way, I don't think I have ever seen a car trap in the 130's and run a 13 second pass at the same time Rofl.

I will agree with the tree comment definitely some slow 60 ft times. Our CL friends drove the chit out cars .Half of us were spinning tires and going side ways all the way down the track.I thinks it takes skills to maintain a straight line..

Man if you could only see this thing move on the streets ..Tein comfort sports are no good for drag racing ..We sure gave it our best shot..

I'll leave everyone with this - turbo lag is a mother..lol

Looks like fun. Everyone should get a 2-step and learn how to use it, you guys were hurting out of the hole. Also, make sure the rear suspension is set up correctly, and while at the track, try disconnecting the front sway bar for some extra travel an weight transfer.

I look forward to going to the track and running my 15.9 or whatever it is the 1jz does.

When my 1jz was bone stock I ran it on the track for the very first time and I ran a 14.4@99mph without even launching at all. This was on 18s too.
