GIAC Stage 2 1/4

Copy and pasted from Audizoo

Hey guys…

So had a very interesting trip to the track this evening. Was off from work today, didn’t have much to do and met some friends at the track for some Wednesday Night Time Trials…

Figured since I was going to hit the track and there’s been a lot of talk about the APR Stage 3 time with no exhaust, no interior, drag slicks and race gas I would do something similar. However it didn’t go 100% as planned. I ended up taking the passenger seat out, back bench and back of the back seat out also along with the spare and tool kit. Cut roughly 105lbs total out of the car. Driver was me, 230lbs.

Left Long Island at 4:45PM and runs started in Jersey and Englishtown at 5PM. Biggest mistake I ever made. Also didn’t realize I had a little too much fuel in the car and couldn’t switch to race gas right away. Ended up getting to Englishtown at 7:30PM! Terrible. I can’t tell you enough how much I hate NY/NJ traffic. Lol.

So… After going through tech I finally lined up for my first run.

GIAC Stage 2
93 file with 93 octane fuel
GIAC DSG Flash
AWE Catback
JHM LW Rotors
Roc Euro Intake
APR CPS
18x8 Winter Wheels with 245/40/18 Conti DWS Tires
(Wheels weighed 46lbs)

No front passenger seat, no back seat

So first run I ran with 10 miles to empty on 93. Here was the result. Also ran the Pbox in the car.

Time slip read: 11.800@116.24 with a 1.69 60’

DA on this run was +1200 I believe.

Same run Vbox read: 11.817@117.39

Now I was down to Approx 5 miles to empty. So I filled the car with 5 gallons of MS109 (105 octane) and let it idle with the new fuel for about 30 minutes. Finally at like 8:50 I was about to run again. This time I decided to run the race gas with the pump file since it was mixed with some 93 still. Ended up cracking off an 11.8xx@116.xx. Now I figured it’s to switch to race map and race gas is flowing and make the glory pass and snatch back the record. DA at this point had dropped a little below a 1000 and air felt good. Swing back around go to make another pass and track worker goes “sorry lanes close at 9PM. Whatever bracket cars who are waiting to run still are going and were closed for the night”

WTF

So now with 5 fresh gallons of MS109 and a B8 S4 with no interior I’m stuck with no track to run at. So I made a call to a buddy of mine who tunes LS’s in Jersey and asked if he was done for a Mexico trip for some Vbox 1/4 mile times to see atleast what she’ll do. At this point I knew that if I cracked off a good number I’d be pissed to say the least bc I couldn’t get a slip just a Vbox time that with taunt me.

Did 3 runs and this was the best one. Ready for this.

11.455@122.11. Fuck! Now I almost know I would have had the Stage 2 record back tonight if it wasn’t for my shit ass luck.

Also got a 9.789 60-130 and a 7.97 0-100 time. Bonkers stuff honestly. Car felt insane to be honest.

DA during these runs were about +400. Funny thing is how accurate the Vbox was on the 11.8 pump run at Englishtown and not only that but the street I ran on was more level than the actual track with less of a decline LOL…

Anyways Vbox don’t 100% count but the car did an 11.45@122 any way you look at it. Can’t wait to hit Atco in a few weeks and hot lap a little. Going to be exciting stuff.
