Where in the world do I look to find out some 1/4 mile times at this site. I want to know what the 1/4 mile times are for some of these Turbo Tibs running around. I want to know what I can expect out of mine. Where are the dynos on some of these Tibs. How do all our Tibs compair to all those dumba** Hondas out there. And if there isn't such a place there should be! Thanks HondaEater

I've been collecting various dyno print outs but I don't have any 1/4 mile times.

Fxtreme has one, but I'm not sure how up to date it is. http://www.fxtreme.org/owners/bestet/stripstat.htm

My turbo tibby will be hitting the track wednesday night, along with about 5 other N/A tibbies...so I will let you know how everyone does.

Stock automatic slushbox ran 17.800 with a reaction time of .533. I don't think you are gonna find any other autos running too much faster than that. Ugh 17.800 yuck...

hey man, as u can see the mods down there, i only have intake and exhaust and i ran 16.42 for my best run. that was my first and only time at the track. i also had my 17's on there which slowed it down. i dont know how much that slows it down, but im hoping it does significantly, so i can put stock wheels when i race. but if anyone knows, if im running 16.4's with 17's how much would i run with my stock 15's? approximately?

Random and his turbo tibby hit 15.3 tonight which is dang good considering its at 3000 elevation, with wind gusts of 30mph, and pratcially in a dust storm.

BlkTib's best was 16.8 and he only has the random special CAI. If he was at sea level, under normal conditions...who knows...he could have hit a 15.9

I had so much fun. To give you an idea of how good a 15.3 is in palmdale...the fairly stock 5.0L and 4.6L mustangs were running 16.0

I only got beat once. A drag civic that cam in on a trailer, he had 13" Mickey Thompsons wide slicks and a turbo (15 PSI). He pulled a 15.18 to my 15.31 The part that just makes me mad, is that his .2 was in the 60ft time. He beat my 60' time by .20, ..but i was slowly gaining on him. The trap speeds were 93 MPH for me and 88 MPH for him. given another 100' of track and I might have had him.

From 6:00pm to 8:50 PM I got in 11 Runs. I wanted to stay later, but all the other tibby folks had left, except me and SpeedBlind. He was holding all of my stuff for me while I dragged (thanks DUDE!)

Worst was a 16.0 (bogged horribly off the line), and by best was the 15.31.

My RT's sucked....bad! My BEST RT was a .702, my worst was a 1.3 Talk about asleept at the switch!

My 60' times sucked rocks as well, but I was at least consistent. My worst was a 2.760 on my first run, my best was a 2.427, with most about 2.6 or 2.5. I've got to get that wheel hop under control. If I rev it to high, it would just spin the front tires...to low, it would bog. if I slipped the cluch out...the tires would HOP like crazy through most of first and some of second.

As Yamaneko said, the winds were a constant 10 MPH, with gusts to 30 or 40. Downwind from the race track was a LARGE motorcross track with about 50 Motorcross guys ripping it up. They kicked up so much dirt and sand you would not believe it. They actually have a guy whose sole job was moving this gas super powered blower up and down the starting section to blow the sand off the track. he would do it ever 3 runs.

The inside of my car is now COVERED in sand. I have no idea how I am ever going to get it all out! My dash has a fine 1.8" layer of sand over it. Its in my leather seats, the carpet, the windows...all over the place.

It was a lot of fun, and I can say that I will NEVER go back to Palmadale again, unless I somehow know for a fact that it is not going to be windy. the wind was blowing at about a 45 degree angle Down track towards the starting point, slowing us down.

My next trip will be to Carlsbad in about 3 weeks. Who wants to come? I will be fun to play with 16BA2 *grin*

Kills.
2 Tiburons
1 Mitsubishi Diamante
3 Civics
2 Integras
2 Preludes

Losses
1 Full drag Turbocharged civic (he later went on to blast a 13.1, so maybe he was just toying with me)

In the "import street legal" class, no one beat my 15.31 time, but then again, per california laws...I'm not street legal either! Closest was a turbocharged MR2 with a 15.9. Hell most of the mustangs and Camaros there could not beat the 15.31.

The did have some Full drag big block boys there. They truely humbled me...standung in the sidelines watching a mustang rip off a 9 second pass.

One of the more interesting drags was a BMW M5 vs a modified newer Z28 with a license plate that read "C5Killer" (corvette c5 I can assume). The Z28 did a 13.89 to the M5's 14.01

We did have one crash early in the day. A full drag mustang smashed into the wall about halfway down the track. No damage to the driver, he was okay. I've got photos of everyone dragging, and of the wrecked stang. Look for the thrusday night. I'm just too pooped to post.

There's more I've leaving out...but most of you are probably bored to tears already.

Excellent, great drag times! We finally have stats on the turbo! Pics would be great, but I know how sluggish I am at posting them, so we'll cut you some slack

Congrats, that's a good kill list.

That would put you in as the #3 person for N/A speed over at Fxtreme. You should scan in your timeslip and send it over to them!
