Emonz and ComposeEvo, this was my second run in my Evo IX at the track and my 60ft time sucked; it was 1.94. I also didn't get into second gear as fast as I could've. When I passed the lights and picked up my slip I was still amazed my car run such a good time with the faulty interface between the chair and the steering wheel. I'm going to head back to the track on April 07, 2007 and run for the last time. After that I'm going to start road racing at Button Willow and the California Speedway. Evo's are pretty good at the quarter mile but they really shine on the road courses from what I hear. I'll just have to buy an extra set of tires every road race.
I don't take anything you guys said about my drag racing skills personally. It's tough first time at the track; especially with your adrenaline pumping and people watching in the stands!! As you all know it takes time to get drag racing down; even then you screw up.
My boost is 19psi in 1st and 2nd gear...in 3rd, 4th, and 5th I stay at 22psi.

yea so with a little better 60 ft youll be looking at low 12s easily. If you want to road race id would try to save for some coilovers and get a nice setup for it

no sweat extreme, i didn't mean anything harmful at all. I'm glad you didn't find it offensive. because those were not my intentions. I'm sure real soon youll be able to cut that time to high 11's or low 12s. good luck with autocross. that's alot of fun.
