There are two road courses within an hour of me now, lime rock and Thompson. My best 1/8 mile was 9.309 @ 80.21mph, 2.359 60 ft, 1.04 rt. that was 1 sec faster than my bolt on 2.5 Altima coupe CVT. Now that I have a real LSD it would lock up better but I would need a better tires.

man 'o' man 'o' man !
How did you manage any rest living across the street from the 1/8 mile strip !
6 hour round trips to the track would definitely make for a long day...
I've always been a 1/4 mile kind of guy ever since I was a kid.
Something about that straight line acceleration makes me salivate.
Never wore off :-)
Never did like the idea of racing around in circles but road courses are tempting.
Have decided to set up my car up for the 1/4 mile while still being able to enjoy driving it around town.
aaahhh the best of both worlds ...
