Caswanso,

Congrats!! This is Carlos(Fromwrxtoevo), I pulled you over as you were exiting the San Antonio Racetrack, I was driving the white Honda Civic SI.

Anyway, your runs are very impressive, I like your 3.5" exhaust also. I noticed every car in San Antonio raceway runs very fast. You are definately one of them.

I also ran my Honda there and improved .5 sec compare to Tucson.

Anyway, I just want to say hello and I hope you remember me. Good luck on the 11's. What intercooler did you get?

Carlos

Are you sure you are refering to SAR and not Alamo raceway?, I have raced in both, in fact I raced in Alamo back in 96' but now is close.
SAR is a recent track located in I-10 . Alamo Raceway was in Hwy 16, Santa Clara Exit. I know my $hit bro .

SAR is not bad at all. Both tracks(Alamo and SAR) gets some cold air at night from the fields and farms nearby.

It's alright there...I don't like to go during midnight madness or the Import Face Off shows, too many teenagers with their Honduhs...

Ok, sorry not hatin (there are many fast Honda's), just annoying people that run like 20's come out in their stock Honda Pilots or whatever they have, my bad if I offend some, but it pisses me off when I only get one run in after I've drivin about a damn hour to get there!

And congrats on the times/traps man, sounds good!!

I am new to the area. I hear alot of people call it Seguin. I call it San Antonio b/c it is soo close. It is off of high way 10. Although the time slip does say "San Antonio Raceway"

Maybe you guys can answere me some questions. I am new to the import scene and by no means claim to know it all. I am just now getting to the point that I can carry on a descent conversation with a small group of people. I am seeing alot of people that say they have well over 300 whp on DynoJets and Mustangs but only seem to turn out mid to high 12's. Is it possible that the track that I ran at turns better time and or the time that I ran not accurate or is it that the dynos in which are really wrong. I know that there is a considerable difference between a Mustang dyno and others but what is more likely.
