Sorry man! I'll empty it right now.

Actually just shoot me an email at mdecesaro@gmail.com , im rarely home and for some reason I have a hard time accessing this forum on my phone.

I think the Azenis are awful for drag racing. I tried it a couple of years ago and had problems, it was either spin or hop no in between. my best 60 was 2.2. my best time was a 13.9 at 99mph, that was a 1.6L with a FMII at 12psi. I think the sidewall on the Azenis is too stiff.

ApexOnYou 09-27-2007 01:25 PM

Of course its too stiff, its practically an autoX tire. I consistantly run 2.0 60fts on them though, I think if I learned to slip the clutch a little more I could get it down to 1.9 or maby even 1.8 if I really hooked up and all the planets alligned just right. On the run I ended up breaking my diff on, it finally hooked up like I had allways wished it would.. Im going to try lower pressures next time, all the runs I have ever made on the Azenis were at 32 or 34psi. Going to try 26 or 28 next time. Next year I want to get some drag radials though, then i'll really start breaking shit...

You're obviously managing to do better with them than I could. Heck you did better with them than I did on my kumho's. I only made 2 passes , probaly could have mustered a 2.0 with a few more attempts but shoulda woulda coulda never accomplished anything. I tried lowering the pressures on the falkens and if I remember right it made it worse. just watch out for wheel hop.
I forgot to add congrats in my previous post that's a very good time.

Thanks man, this may sound stupid and I may be completely wrong, but I think the 60ft times may also have something to do with the turbo size (in addition to the azenis). I went with the T3/T04E 50t .48/.60 trying to have a turbo that was alittle laggy, yet not so bad that I was a dyno queen.. Of course I picked the size before I learned anything about compressor maps so it was just a guess pretty much lol, but I think my 60ft times have alot to do with the fact that it takes quite a few feet off the line before I hit boost, so by the time I recover traction from the initial launch, it starts hitting full boost. Please someone tell me if this is a stupid theory, because I may very well be just imagining this lol.

Sounds logical to me.

Tried to snag a new fastest time this weekend, came close but no cigar :/

It was my first time back since I blew my Torsen so I kept pussy footing my launch.

got smoked by the 350?

it's ok dude, my run last week resulted in an 18.5 after I blew an intercooler coupling off and let out of it

ApexOnYou 10-25-2007 11:00 PM

Haha no, I ran a 13.3 that run, the 350 ran a 15.7. If you look closely you see that I get ahead of him then manage to stay out of the cameras view the whole race(blocked by the big ass truck), hence the shot of me first on the return road. Ill have to post up the second cam angle.

WOW...thats pretty damn fast...u can kick a lot of street legal cars ass on the street...i have a friend with a FMII miata running 15psi of boost and just barely making high 13s... best time was 13.8

ApexOnYou 10-26-2007 02:36 PM

Our local track is pretty nice, it hooks up goood.

01TurboMiata 11-25-2007 02:50 PM

nice times.... i ran a 9.0 on the 1/8th with my secondary fuel line leaking and i was running lean and fuel cutting on 9 PSI, i got it fix and i hope to go back and run a low 8 =]
