If this thread is going to hold any truth. Time slips ARE required. Pictures and videos welcome.

That being said, I should be hitting the strip soon. I was thinking about sunday, not sure if I'll go yet.

No BS this year only REAL numbers

[pure_dx]

^well.....some of us dont have scanners or any digital uploader, slips or not, its up to the poster i like to see how everyone is doing this time around....it's been a while since everyone posted their quarter mile times, is it not?

[Defgeph]

You can go to staples pay like 2 dollars get it scanned, and then post it. I dont want this thread turning into a pissy match when someone posts an unbelievable number with out a slip to back it up.

Remember what happend not to long ago with a stock ST in the 16's


If people could be truthful we wouldnt need slips

[pure_dx]

BUMP, c mon dudes....lets see how fast these celicas are......errr...how slow i meant......j/k

[Blakout16]

if u read my profile, my st is still trying to get into the low 20's lol.

sorry, delete - i dont have my slips to prove it. /kills self.

16.112 in the 1/4
And if anyone thinks that's bs - I have slips to prove it and I will go to staples damn it. J/k - that time sucks and I know it. I have more real mods for this year though and maybe I can get into the 15's b4 I go Turbo. Check my profile for mods but this was over a year ago and I didn't have half of those mods yet.

[fastcelica20]

im wondering, what would a swapped stock celica run in the 1/4 mile run?

what about a swapped celica with a turbo upgrade (let's just say any turbo)?

im wondering about how well the celicas would do in the 1/4 too. it better be fast. i was watching some evos and some evos were doing 1/4 runs and were running in the lower 13s to upper 14s.

hello?? is anyone listening?
unless you can produce the timeslip, dont even bother posting.

jeff ran a 13.9 last year @ 12 or 13psi i think it was.
here is the video, his run is at the end.
Right-click Save-as
his mods are in his profile.
jenn ran a 14.07 the next time we went to the track.

^no, its ok, since this is my thread, people dont need to post a time slip, but it is welcomed, anymore times this year?

[presure2]

ummm...NO. its NOT.
this thread WILL be closed if people post times without slips, period.

[Negative]

Ok let's see if I got this photobucket stuff figured out:


Note: This is not my best time but it is the best one I have in my car at the moment (yes I'm a ricer - I drive around everyday with timeslips in my center console - I'm trying to get help). You may consider this time my best time until I find my other one which I know is at my house cause I was showing a friend it a few months ago. This one is from the same night but it was my first of 3 runs. My last run that night was 16.112. A few things to note:
1. I had to overlay it on the other slip so that you could see the explanations of the times because for some reason they cut them all funny at the little box where you get your times.
2. This was Jan of '05. At that time all I had was a 2.5" intake, header and stock piping from cat back with a generic exhaust (no cat back). I was on stock rims with BFgoodrich VR4's (not at all good race tires) and I could get no traction and the wheel hop was scary. Now I have a SAFCII, full exhaust, 3" intake, full MSD package, Yokohama Parada Spec II tires, Sportline springs, etc. (see my profile for full mod list)
3. This is totally not stripped - I never even take the spare or the jack out of my car at the track. At that time I could not remove my 15" subwoofer easily so I didn't. Hell I never even empty glovebox, center console, or ashtray because I want my times to be realistic. My garage door opener always ends up in the back seat after flying out of that cubby hole next to the lighter - LOL - I wish I could see that in action.

Pressure are you OK man? You seem pretty hostile over such a small thing. I think we can trust the majority of the people on here to be honest. Besides If I was gonna lie about it I would have said I was in the 15's so I could at least boast the stock time of 15.6

Edit: How come the picture didn't just show like on other people's posts? Can someone help me with this? I'm such aloser with the internet LOL.

::tried to fix it for you, the link will not work::: cant find your photobucket account to try and fix it for ya.

i am fine.
when jeff posts timeslips are required, there is a REASON.
we are SO sick of these threads where people ask for times, and when some kid with an ST posts, "ohh i just ran a 16whatever" with no proof to back it up, and everyone starts flaming about how it just cant happen.
well, this is the way to STOP that.

thanks for posting your slip, i PM'd you about the photobucket help.

[Negative]

Cool with me but maybe I'm too trusting.
Thanks for the help and understanding. 16.112 sux anyway. MY MR2 friends give me constant hell for it. Well Turbo should end that even though with the FWD I will still be slower than the Turbo MR2's

EDIT: BTW - the slip above showed 16.545 - 1st run of the night. 2nd was a little better and 3rd was the 16.112. I'l try to get that one tonight and post it tommorrow after Pressure skools me on how to use th internet LOL

what i would get if i went and raced my ST.

just a little joke...I may go up there eventually though, test out the GT Convertible....nothing like drag racing with the top down. . .

ps. this is just a little joke, i didnt actually run this time. nor did i actually even run at all.

[pure_dx]

dam, where is everybody?? i thought this thread was gonna get flooded, but i guess you guys dont like the track or something?

[crismillencolin]

I wouldnt even bother taking something as slow as my celica to the track , i can just imagine everyone laughing as i record the slowest time of the day..........

Looks good but the 3sfe just doesnt cut it

Let us (HTC) know. We will go with u.
And who cares about running the slowest time of the day - no one will laugh or at least you won't hear it.
Actually there are many way slower cars out there then our Celicas that you can line up with and make yourself feel better with. Hell I'll run you - I always wondered how the verts stack up to the GT's and ST's.
BTW - they won't let you run w/the top down - not even your window cracked for liabilty reasons.

[CilverSeliST205]

Now I have a SAFCII, full exhaust, 3" intake, full MSD package, Yokohama Parada Spec II tires

How do you like these rubbers? I just ordered parada spec II... how did they preform on the track? street?
Thanks!

I am going to hit up the track next month, hoping for mid 13s on street tires...

I take it as you are swapped looking for those numbers. I'd expect low 14's unless you have some other major goodies to go with it. My MR2 friends run mid 13's and their mid engine launch will always own us FF guys. Good luck though. Please post you're times - I'd love to see a USDM 6th gen in the 13's still FF.
As for the tires they are pretty good but I can still break them loose. I have not taken them to the track yet but they do well on the street.

[nik]

I'll try and put a slip up around the end of the month more than likly it will be with my heavy 18" street tires

[presure2]

I'd love to see a USDM 6th gen in the 13's still FF.

then come up and see jeff run, he ran 13.9 last year, its in the vid i uploaded.

[Negative]

That's great. I'm going to have to get my friends to look at this. BTW is he 3S-GTE, 5S-FTE or 5S-GTE?
Ahh there is hope for me yet. I just can't stand the sloppy rear of an MR2 or else I would just take the easy way and buy one. Plus I have been in love with the 6th gen since I first started looking at cars as something other than transpo.
The Mr2 is pretty but the 6th gen is the sexiest car ever made IMO.

Oh don't be so NEGATIVE
srtforums.com got FWD guys running like 11-12 second passes. I bet that Nik could get into 12 with some 9" wide slicks...

Please someone else post some N/A times for god's sake. I have no basis for comparison at all. No comments on my time other than my own - nothing.
Turbo times are welcome too. Just make sure you post slips so this thread doesn't get closed or whatever.
Well I have but to send off my MSD 6BTM for repairs and get a reasonably good street tune and I'm back to the track for my last N/A runs. I just wanna see the stock time of 15.6 before I start my 5S-FTE project and before the reliabilty goes to the sh*tter.
I will post those times as soon as possible - estimating mid june.

no one has ran an NA celica in here??? this is extraordinary, dont be shy guys (or gals) post up your times! and mods u ran with!

[pure_dx]

yea.....ok,...uhhh,.....yea......so.....can i get at least a good range or what you celica guys are running with the 5sfe and 7afe?? i mean,.....someone with a 5sfe told me they can run mid 15s with just a short ram intake and exhaust, possible? where's everyone at?

[pure_dx]

bump, what are all you NA guys running?? omg somebody post! im hearing many rumors of the GT celicas running mid 15s with bolt ons,....can somebody confirm this?

DX,
a bunch of us will be hitting the track in a couple weeks (end of the month) im sure someone with a GT will run.

[pure_dx]

^bump

what are you 7afe and 5sfe guys running? whats taking so long? prove me wrong guys, when i first joined this forum i was expecting you guys to be somewhat 'addicted to speed', but i guess not everyone are (street) racers?

[JFrost9]

lol you cant call celica owners "speed addicts" thats like calling a man with no teeth a gum lover...(lame i know). Anyways, give me about a month or so, and ill have some times for ya.

[pure_dx]

[devilsden97]

i have some for a stock gt auto.....ill get the pictures of the slips and post them

[creis]

Not a 1/4 time but in autocross last weekend I pulled a 70.69 with no penalties at Packwood (scca solo track) I add a link to the results page when they upload the scores, I think I placed 2nd in my class with that time. 1st was a high 68 I think.

[easternpiro1]

ive been thinking about bracket racing....but im so embarrassed people will laugh not BEHIND my back, TO MY FACE!! LOL
Then again ive street raced a modded corvette so what do i care about people laughing (I got a screw loose anyway)...there were like a good 100 people watching then! TO THE ROCK I GO!!!! TALLYHO!

wheelspin OWNS me.
if i coulda kept the wheelspin down, that would have easily been a high 13 second pass.

[kenjamatic]

hey presure2 what was that other car that ran 11.3???well i'm planning on going to the track next week and tomorrow i'm scheduling a dyno run which would be approx. two weeks from now(or at least that's what the guy a motor sports dynamics told me)....oh yeah i have a 5s n/a with some light mods...wish me luck...

edit: forgot to mention i'm just planning to run high 16's ...don't really want to get my hopes up too high..

the car that ran an 11.3 was a highly modified (Street legal) Grand National running drag radials...crazy ****, there is a video in the DWG 06 meet thread of that run...its nuts

[6strngs]

They just built a new drag strip (and drift course ) right by my house. it's not open yet though, they're getting the insurance and everything for it, and there is a guy who lives close-by who is fighting it because of noise. so it may not open at all... but if/when it does, I'll get a slip for you of a n/a 5s with light mods.

[playr158]

psh don't hate cause i'm faster then you
....and this is just my daily driver

[creis]

wish me luck, I need it because with the cars I'm up against looks as though I'm gana get totaly worked over this sunday.

the list of my competitors (cars/drives in my class)
1 (55) 1990 Mazda Miata Red Gregory Backes
2 (240) 1993 Nissan 240SX White Michael Jusenius
3 (8) 2003 Mitsubishi Evolution 8 Yellow Richard Kasten
4 (78) 2003 Mitsubishi Evolution VIII Red Josh Kidd
5 (64) 2004 Volkswagen R32 Silver Bob Koenig
6 (27) 2001 Nissan Maxima Black Vinay Kurien
7 (101) 2002 Saturn SL Blue Marcus Olds
8 (88) 2006 Nissan 350Z Silver David Orr
9 (99) 1994 Toyota Celica Teal Chris Reis
10 (444) 1998 Bmw M3 Black Pranesh T

(fyi there in order alpa from last name its not standings )

but I got all new shocks/sturts and new Toyo Proxies so I should be way better then my last race (I placed 2nd in) sept now I got some serious cars to go against, I hope the drives are crap, I know the 350z driver will spin it atleast onces (actualy I bet all the RWD guys will spin it atleast once. because they always do)

also anyone close enough to bremerton (were the race is) should come check it out and even race, the NOV classes are open to anyone just gata pay the $35 fee and have your car pass inspection (means nothing can be lose in the car and a few other things) its fun, I'll be there all day from the morning to watch the cars, then later in the day when I start racing.
