My car is being built as a pure auto-x car, but it's been out at the track a few times. At that time it had crappy tires and a clutch that went around 1k later...

15.4

Links working?

My car's already done 840,000 quarter miles :) No racing for m.

Is that a real ITR, or did you convert the lugs?

I did 15.7@88 while still learning how to drive a stick. I'd guess that I can do 15.2-15.4@90-92 now. I was just launching way too light and slipping the clutch too long.

which ride?

92 Ford explorer 5 speed? 17-18 seconds..
96 Maxima? 16 seconds
97 F150? 17-18 seconds
2003 Maxima? 15-16 seconds
2005 Escape? 16-18 seconds
1992 Seadoo GT? 25 seconds
all estimations. I'm probably way off.

unless the owner painted it, ITR only comes in white yellow or black. meanwhile, I think it would be irrational to substititute the original Type-R rims for anything else. :)

They look like 4 lugs to me and 15.4 for a type-r is slow.

Not to mention removing the wing and the decals;)

I like how no one actually knows. Can't expect the nerd board members to actaully take their cars to the strip though.

My car ran a 15.555 at LACR in Palmdale, CA.

Oh, I didn't know we were bench racing in this thread......

In that case I'd say about 14.9 - 15.2

Oh, in that case I'd say 12.5 if I can get the double clutching down and I don't blow the welds on the intake.
