Default Name / Username

My username Tresfr stems from when I used to be a sponsored RC Touring Car Racer. Tresfr is Team Really Extra Super Fast Racing. We once had to do a charity 4 hour rc enduro and thats what we called our team. I have no idea why I sometimes still use it as a username.

See you guys tomorrow,
oh yeah real name (Mark)

Man. Looks like I won't be able to go to this event. I have to go back home to Irvine to deal with family stuff. Sorry guys! Maybe next time! I'll have my setup done by then hopefully.

times were freakin bad
mind u this is my 1st time driving a manual at the track thats RWD
i did not know what to expect

1st pass: stalled:embarrassing i know
2nd pass: forgot to turn off vdc and missed 3rd GH3y lol
3rd pass: plenty of wheelspin/hop my best time 14.8

i know i can do better....waaaayyy better
and then i realize on the way home i was freakin shifting like i would on the streets...off gas/clutch shift let go of clutch gas....dumb lol

i guess i was thinking to much......maybe next time or i should just stick to the canyons(im better at that :P)

there were plenty of 12 sec cars there

Default Track Day

Decent day at the track. The temp in Fontana was hotter than I thought it would be today at about 80 degrees. The bite was fair but not great.

I was happy to get a solid baseline with my 7AT while it was completely stock.

13.3 @ 105 - 2.08 60 foot

13.4 @ 106 - 2.10 60 foot

If the temp was 70 degrees when I made my best pass I think my car would have reached its maximum potential which I feel would be.

13.2 @ 107 - 2.00 60 foot

I feel good about the 370 because my friend who went with me who has a lot a drag race experience has a 2010 SS Camaro Auto with intake and exhaust and he ran a 13.5 @ 105 with a solid 60 foot 2 passes in a row. There was another SS Camaro and it also ran 13.4 at 106.

I am installing a CBE at Amplified on Tuesday but I think I will stop there until there is a really good tune which may not come around for many months. It seems air mods especially on warm days don't make these cars faster and when you add long staging lines and warm weather may even slow them down. I also wonder if one air mod equals 15HP 7TQ and 2 air mods equal 18hp with a loss of torque.

Next time we need more than three 370's to come out. I know drag racing is not that great but we had myself and MiniCobra, My friends tuned Mustang Gt and the others SS Camaro all running between 13.3 and 13.7 which made for some fun grudge matches and pit conversation. You can even request to race against a friend. If we get more people in the future this could make things interesting.

Braden and Marco you owe me a rep point, thought I would forget.

^Those are solid numbers. Good job. 7ATs are quick. I will probably go to the next one which most likely be in over before winter. At that time i should have way over 5k miles.
