ok.. I think I sorta kinda get it now.. I'd like to throw in a "what if this happens" question that may help me get to sleep tonight..

If both cars run a 12.45 for example. (highly unlikely i know)
and left car tree time was .555 and right car tree time was .333

right car would win because he would have beaten his tree time.

Another question for BlownXA.. back to the orginal story. Did you win against the foxbody stang because you crossed the line first or because he DQ'ed? I think I may be reading too much into this now..

^ Yep, you got it!

Reaction time + time ran = who gets to the finish line first.

Also, another thought, say you are running 16 seconds and the car you are racing is running 10 seconds - you get to leave 6 seconds earlier at the tree to make it fair. It's all about reaction time and how close to your dial-in you can get.

1st rd. Foxbody mustang, he pulled a .671 light, I pulled a .251....I pedaled before finish line crossing with a 12.57 to his 12.33 (ran out chasing). WIN


He won because the Mustang had a crappy light, so he was trying to chase him down to the finish line (and thus ran too fast.)

BUT - Mustang altogether (with reaction time added in) ran 13.001, xA ran 12.821 altogether, so the xA would have won either way.

I do alot of bracket racing on my motorcycles. We grew up with it as my dad has always had at least one drag car and we went every weekend. Growing up in Ohio has it perks, there's a racetrack in about every town haha. :)

OHHHHHH.. damn I feel stupid now... but yes, this makes total sense. For some reason my brain just didn't want to compute tree time and the fact that both cars do not leave at the same time in some cases

thanks for the clarification 33OH... U should be a teacher

Went to the drag strip yesterday, made a pass for the fun of it.

This is my stock 2000 Vitz (1300cc 2NZ-FE), recently chucked in a C114 gearbox and the car had a bit of weight reduction.

Can't go under low 17's here. I don't understand how you guys are hitting 84mph at the 1/4 trap. I'm only able to hit 81.

On winter tires, 4/32 thread.

I have about 10 timeslips for last night, I'll try to scan them when I have a chance...

I think that for grins I really need to give the 1/4 mile a whirl. If I do I will have to be prepared to dump another tranny into it again....haha

Ill have to dig around for the picture on my other phone, but my best last year was 16.3@84mph launching it soft on snow tires.

I could probably snab a 15 if i put stickies on it and kill the clutch

- 1nz
- Standard 2nz gearbox
- Custom manifold
- TD04L (wrx turbo... Super laggy on the 1nz)
- 2.5" dump/exhaust
- Xr6t front mount
- 14x7 rebanded steelies wrapped in the cheapest 185/60's around (32psi)
- Full tank of fuel/sub/power tools/spare wheel
wheel

15.0! Was my first time at the track so I think I did pretty well. Only got in one run.

Barely got traction till a quater of the way through second gear. So with a bit of weight reduction, better/deflated tires, dialing in the gain on the ebc (which I'm yet to install) and of course, more practice, I think I'm a chance of a high-mid 14.

Not a Yaris or a 1NZ, but a 1NR-FE and I know there are a few other guys here with 1NR-FEs. Heading to the track and reserving this space for timeslip and modification list. Trying to beat the Motorweek record of 17.4 @ 80mph. Fingers crossed for a 16.999 run or better, but my goal is only better than Motorweek.


***UPDATE***

I managed to get 6 runs in before the CVT was too heat-soaked which resulted in my retirement to go home. Looks like I'll be needing a secondary small aluminum radiator before the CVT to aid in cooling.

In any case, I made my goal to beat Motorweeks best factory time of 17.4 @ 80mph (mostly). I managed a 17.348 @ 79.10mph with headwind gusts of 25mph (pics in comments) and a gradual incline from the line to the traps of around 6-12 feet. Over all, I'm satisfied for a car with 94hp and 89tq and although a 16.999 would have been nice to see, I'm sure I'll manage it at some point in the future.

Thanks to a friend, who managed to record a video against an Evolution X, that somehow only managed a 16.091 @ 97mph to my 17.348 @ 79mph. So here's the vid, with pics and other info.

Modifications - 1ZZ throttle body, K&N drop in filter with velocity stack forward facing on airbox, DC Sports catback exhaust.
