89LX Coupe

Well I convinced my ex to let me take her car to the local track lulz but I've only got 2 passes in so far and I haven't race a wrong wheel drive at the track in forever haga.

1st pass
2.47 60
9.61@76.74

2nd pass
2.35 60'
9.45@77.04
still getting used to launching the car so hopefully the times keep coming down. Right now it's about 60* out.

Try leaving from 2000 rpm and rolling into it?

Lol 83.... dudes a pimp I tell ya! Nice runs bro.... not too far off from where we thought.... if traction was there it woulda been in the 9.20 range

On my best pass I came out right around 2800 and let it pull through and it still started to haze the tires a little bit and it would spin like hell every time I pulled 2nd.

That she is!! hahahaha the things you can get people to do lol


Well I had to leave the track early b/c the ex had a real bad tooth ache but I did get 3 more runs in before I left. Nothing any better

9.67
9.59
9.47

So chances are I'll never be able to get the car back to the track to get improvements but now we all have a good idea on how these cars run!!!

Those aren't bad times really, I've seen guys with modded m6s that are pulling their hair off because they cant run 9s in the 1/8th. The only remedy to your 60ft times is get drag radials or slicks. I've tried damn near everything in my 5AT, and I can't even get a 2.29 to save my life and that's on KDW IIs at 20psi which are decent tires, it runs 9.5s at 75 consistently in my ****ty weather.

Not bad times at all for the 60 foot!!

Thanks man I will say that was one of the most challenging cars to launch but either way I was still impressed with the times. Is you 5at all stock?

Thanks!!! Those 60's was really making me mad haha oh well I got my racing fix at least for a lil bit.
