Spring of 2006 if I recall. Just got the car on the road after some body work(as you see) and wanted to make some passes. 15.5@90 was the best run of the day.

My recently boughten 1999 ford escort ZX2. Exhaust and walk around. This is a video of it right now soon to be upgraded with loads of accessories.
ZX2 S/R vs Honda Civic SI
This is a video of race #3 at Byron Dragway against the honda civic SI... Had a better launch even though i bogged it a little bit... car pulls really well in 1st in 2nd... But HORRIBLE in 3rd... don't know why
So i thought i raced pretty well but my times were absolutely horibble. I had 3 runs... I have an S/R with obviously iceman intake with K&N filter, 2.5" Borla Exhaust, ZXtuner Hotshot header, and Powders UDP... With all this i was hoping to break 15.0 but would've been happy with 15.0
So first run...
R/T ... .285
60 ... 2.441
330 ... 6.891
1/8 ... 10.575
MPH ... 66.44
1000 ... 13.728
1/4 ... 16.408
MPH ... 84.47
2nd run... launched the best... couldn't put the car in 3rd for like a half a second... but wouldve been my fastest run.
R/T ... .121
60 ... 2.387
330 ... 7.039
1/8 ... 10.751
MPH ... 66.59
1000 ... 13.887
1/4 ... 16.553
MPH ... 83.88
3rd run... I raced a honda civic Si... killed him with my launch, but he pulled away after 2nd gear... Raced perfect on this one except i bogged it just a little bit in the beginning on the launch
R/T ... .157
60 ... 2.544
330 ... 7.075
1/8 ... 10.762
MPH ... 66.51
1000 ... 13.913
1/4 ... 16.589
MPH ... 84.67
ANy ideas on what could help me a little bit? i need to check my plugs and wires... but anything else that anyone could think of that might improve my time? I have a fully built motor and turbo just need the accessories... but i want to see how fast i can get this thing with bolt ons first...
Thanks
