Empire Dragway

Went to Empire last night. Tons of cars there. Wondered if anyone else from here went? I saw a few stm built evos killing it as usual! On a side note I was able to make two solid passes in my turbo civic and finally reached into the 10s. 1st was 10.9 2nd run was 10.8. Third my transmission will need to be opened up to see what I lost lol.

Solid. What are you running for engine specs?

ls vtec 35r turbo. Boost by gear. 16-28lbs

You ran against two 1/8 mile cars? Not that it’s relevant, but the seem to cook in the 1/8 then shut down on the back half.

It was tnt night. You really don’t “run” against anyone. Im not sure what other ppl were testing that night or if they had issues or not.

Almost 136mph is cooking! Congrats homie.

great runs man.
I was right behind you. I was car #69 Friday.
I didn’t fair well at all that night.

Thanks guys. I was only able to make two solid passes before my luck ran out too. Lol

Which luck? breaking or safety

Breaking. My clutch was only good for 450tq and im running stock axles and nothing special in the tranny. Figured id get a few more runs in by slipping clutch instead of snapping axle on first pass from preloading. That’s y my 60` isnt the best. But still really happy with breaking into the tens.

I used to have luck with just dropping it damn near the limiter on 24.5" slicks. Let me know when you want it to go faster, I’ll give it hell. :lol:

What clutch anyway?

Im not gonna tear it apart for a bit. Im currently in the middle of packing up things. Moving to NC the 29th. But it was the act maxx xtreme 6 puck solid clutch with the prolite flywheel.

Thank god, now I never have to see you again. :lol: good luck on the move, sounds exciting.

When I ran a 4 or 6 puck (can’t remember now) it always snapped axles…switched to a full face and it never snapped again.

was there for axle snapping fun

Thanks man. Was nice meeting your greasy self. :funny2:

you could always try one of those clutch delay release valves. https://youtu.be/n5518nf6OSA
