    Well, I guess that goes to show the difference weather/surface/altitude can make...

        If you can get it off the line, it should be brutally fast.

            Yeah, Epping has an altitude of about 300 ft I think. It was about 97˚ when I was there last so that will change things.

                I plan on going in a week or two with the ETA, I'll let you guys know. Running on a slick (Not a drag tire :) ) exhaust, CAI (Enclosed cone) and maybe a chip. I'll be happy with a 17 but I don't know if thats do-able.

                  Haven't dragged the car below, but I anticipate around 15 at 2500 FT.

                  I dragged my old eta, it was a slug even with the chip and I got about 17.7 at barely 80 mph at whatever elevation Emmett, ID is at. It was daaamn slow. LOL

                  15.4 for an Eta is really f-in good!

                    So far my fastest has been 14.02 with BAD wheel hop and missing 3rd. 60ft was either 1.9 or 1.99 (need to look at the slip). I was launching at 3500 and shifting at 7000. Trap speed was 99.
                    It was probably about 90 degrees out (about 3 or 4 weeks ago). Hopefully once they get the track to actually hook (big tire cars were having to pedal it out of the hole) I should be able to get deep into the 13's before the nitrous system goes on.

                      I've only done drags 2 times, one in my bone stock 04 r32, did it a 14.0xx at 98 o 99mph. 14-15second passes are not fast.... lol

                        I think I saw your e30 at the drags last night, do you have a Penzoil sign for a sunroof? Good run time.

                          Do you guys actually build your e30's for straight line speed?
