Zetec MTX to the track - CEG Archives

Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives

For the first time. Best of the night for me was 16.9. Can't complain as I went there expecting a 17.2-17.3. As for a slip and I hate it when I hear this but. I don't have one. I just have two fellow CEG memebers to back me up. As the story goes one of the time towers was hit by lightning last Sunday and virtually everything is fried. Sadly as well only one reader board was posting the times. So I may have bettered the 16.9 and don't know it. All in all I can't complain for my little 4 cyl with only a CTA intake for mods.

Well that is about accurate.....you must be a better driver than others here. Good job!

Well Not sure if I'm a better driver or just more cruel to my cars. One thing I did notice though is that I have far less wheel hop in the 4CYL vs. the V6.

and FAR less power

With CTA Intake and trubendz exhaust I got a 16.612
I drive a Zetec Cougar, if it matters all that much.

Im pretty sure I could have gotten a 16.5 eventually.

it does matter, the coog is quite a bit lighter IIRC.

You don't recall correctly.

we gotta get some better times out there for the zetec community

atleast u didn't run 17's and you do only have the CTA so maybe there is hope for you

I will be trying later this summer for something better than my 16.9.

And where is that Thank You Captian odvious picture again?

I know power makes a difference but I also though it had ALOT to do with the way the front end of the car was set up. Really wish I had gotten the trap time. There is hope the Chongo a fellow CEG memeber was there with his camera that shoots video. He did a couple of vids of me running. He may have gotten a vid with the timer.
