    Went to Reynolds the other day, fun stuff, had a few runs. First run not agressive launch, Second Bogged to 3k after 1-2 shift ugh. The track then reprepped and had one more try. The last race was fun.

    Genya vs 04 Cobra

    Cliff Notes/Comments:

    Cobra faster time, Genya Win by .14 sec. Based on his R/T he would have had to beat me by .48 1/4 time to win.

    I need to work on reducing my 1/8th time, Shift points(Set the shift light to 6.2k on this run, may change upwards a bit) and shift speed. But working on it slowly.

    The cobra would have won however, didnt have the MPH to completely pull me in. He was going 4 mph faster at the eighth and we both ended up with the same MPH when it was over. Will be back later to try to skim .04 off and claim my 12.3, try to get a 1.76 60' then back for more tuning and tricks.

    In the meantime look for WRXAtlanta on Scoobymile.org soon :)

    Side note the cobra owner was very cool, and had a smokin car (looks and speed)

    the track was fun last night. had a mid 90s suzuki sidekick runnin in the mid 12s all night on a heavily boosted engine. a rambler that was streetable that ran a mid 8 sec run. not too many imports though. great times jason! next time youll do better. 12.4 is still respectable.

    Yup im pretty sure i will snag my 12.3 soon ;)

    A favorite sig:
    With a clutch failing, In the heat, With a head wind, I think my half shaft was broke, I had a full tank of gas, The guy who ran before me dropped oil an drove though the water box, Forgot to take the sandbags out of the trunk from the winter, Left the AC on, I didn't eat my wheaties, I forgot to shave, A black cat crossed the track, My girlfriend cheated on me, and Satan stole my lunch money....other than that it was a pretty good run.

    Since you got 20G turbo, can't you shift higher than 6.2K?? 12.4s is damn nice number. I just wonder how fast i will go. haha maybe 13.4s??

    Jang Id think youd do some decent times. I think the car has a 12.8-13.1 in it with a some practice for sure, wait till october when its cooler and bring your friends to the shootout! A fun event even if you dont run :) /promotion

    With the 20g it makes power up till red line good. I was just experimenting at the time, should have gotten another run. Got the launch down, now just picking best shift points and where to set the light.

    Hey bambooi sorry man, we ended up deciding to go on kinda a whim, and had to leave before rush hour at 3:00pm to get there at 8:45pm whew.

    However, I will meet up with ya, I figure why not go after you get done friday? If ya want we can chill at my house before you need to get done, get it done, we can come to my crib and relax for a bit afterwards then head out to Commerce. I was gonna get the manifolds taken off, but I can do all that saturday anyway. Maybe we can drag a few members out as well.

    Stock Clutch is still kicking butt with 26k, doesnt act like it minds a run or two.

    it was wrong. slicks on the back. doin burnouts and turbo was just a hissin away. 1 time he upped the boost and almost hit a wall after his burn out! then he almost hit it doin his run. then he backed it down again. it looked as though it had alot more to give but the side kick chassis wasnt havin it. couldnt keep it strait.
