Py7h0n's big cleanout · by **Py7h0n** » Mon Dec 07, 2009 9:02 am

Had a great day yesterday at Import All Stars! Very small crowd for such a big event, especially considering the amount of pro cars running.

I ran a personal best of 10.654 @ 205.1KmH which I am extremely happy about as my previous best was a 11.4. Shows there is a lot in launching properly

Video of my run for those interested

Loved the supra! Was standing track side and was momentarily distracted by somebody in the stands, turbo came on song right as you went past me and I just about fell over.

From all the runs I observed you really need to leave the line with some more steam, pretty well demonstrated by the 10 second run. I don't know a thing about the auto setup you're running but would something like a 2 step rev limiter/launch control style allow you to build boost without destroying things?

Nice pass

What's up with letting off the gas before the finish line

Letting off the gas was stupidity (could have been quicker) and getting rid of a wobble

Best 60 foot was that run - a 1.784.

I really need to get my torque converter set for a higer stall to use the larger turbo properly or finish installing my NOS and use that off the line to get it moving

. Thought about using my launch controller but could not be bothered cracking the laptop out and fiddling with the setup at the strip!

Good grief!! Nice work, were you expecting a 10?

I was watching the vid, and I was thinking

"Why did he lift off accelerator so quick...."
"Why did you coast past the finish lines..."
"Oh... is it over already?"

*rewind vid... count 10 sec*

"oh damn!"

Grats.

Thanks

I was expecting a 10 but only like a 10.9 or so because I'd just run a 11.03 the run before. 10.654 was very unexpected and I really hope I can get a fair bit more

by **molex** » Mon Dec 07, 2009 5:30 pm

Having witnessed that run up close and personal I'd say there's definitely much more to be had off the line which generally becomes a much larger advantage at the end of the track. Would think 10.1-10.2 wouldn't be out of the question with the turbo spooled up on a day like that! Seriously impressive stuff, congrats.

Well done man!

Sounded like you needed to let it spool for a while longer? It was spooling up really nice and sounded like it had a little more to go before you took off?

Pretty sweet as run dude! Sounded nice and smooth. Shame you had to back off!

Bring on a LOW 10 next? hehe

by **holden_fan2005** » Mon Dec 07, 2009 10:39 pm

Sounds to me like it's time for a transbrake
