I take it that you are responding to me... perhaps he can give me some 'launching' techniques or something. I've only driven the 1320 that one time when my car was stock, and I don't think I had it quite 'down'. My car is much better through the twisties anyway...

 

At this point with the 1.5L i would figure 17.5 or so ...
but with the 1.8 and turbo I hope to hit 14 and below ...
A t3 will be in the future plannings , but a smaller turbo will be used for testing and knowledge gaining.

Phantom cruiser do you have coil overs, or springs, 1 thing i learned about my coil overs is that my car cant be dropped that hard or my times will be slower: Due to the fact that when i shift my car kind of hops or bounces, and its not that smooth, and i think i ran like a 14.3 with it down all the way, and then i brought it up about a inch and it was much faster. But It took me awhile to getting good at launching, i cant really tell you were to drop it at, because are setups are different. Just practice. I just try to drop it at around 4300, on mine so it doesnt bog down after my launch. All i can say is practice on some old roads.

Do you have a autostick,or a 5

Hope i could help a little?

I have coil-overs and a manual tranny. I think the drop is too low right now, although it looks really cool like that. Someday, when we get a free moment and when we aren't concentrating on "all that is Focus" then we may take the Nana back out to the track.

p.s. aren't all OK roads "old roads"???

 

Oklahoma damn, then yes all the roads are old, i'm suprised someone in oklahoma actually has a car, i thought everyone drove trucks. Wow!

 

No, Montreal roads are worse.

I garantee.

They are the worst roads on the planet.

There's a road where I go to study that dates back to 1650 and is still in daily use.
