i think you could probably fit a 26" tire in there. and stiffen the rear/raise the rear up some would be beneficial aswell. im just waiting for you guys to cut a 1.4.

 

Weight reduction = traction. Despite popular belief. Good 'ol inertia.

And congrats guys, I really wanted to see the car run at the track event, hopefully I'll be there for the 10 sec run.

 

You da man, Joe! Nice going.

 

What did you guys do to beef up the drivetrain, or are you guys just waiting till you break something?

 

Beef up the drivetrain???
Did you miss the part about it beeing very light.
This car wont be breaking drivetrain parts anytime soon.

 

Drivetrain mods include one new axle from Discount Auto Parts. The other axle came with the car when purchased at Goodwill and since the tranny it came with took a shit (broke shift fork) it has a tranny direct from the junkyard in it. It does have an ACT 2600lb pressure plate with stock mitsu disc. Do the long wheel studs count as drivetrain mods?

I wish I could have made the Track Day. I would have run all day at T&T AND TRack Day 11. Damn.

 

Your times make me want to fix my car and try to go fast.

 

any clue on what kind of #'s it puts down on the dyno .....???

 

Highest HP non-nitrous 14b dyno pull I've seen was 309hp, and that thing had everything possible done to it. Figure 300hp for a fair estimate of the max front wheel hp you'll see out of a 14b. They're probably pushing between 280-300 if I had to guess.
