Hit the 12's!
 

Well, I know the Cayman S isn't the car to by for drag racing but I just wanted to see what it could do. So I went to the track tonight for the second time ever and here's how it went:

1st run...13.0003@109.27
2nd run...13.003@109.52
3rd run...12.91@109.52 with a 1.96 60ft which was my best of the night.

As far as mods go I have a Evo intake, Fabspeed headers w/cats, and Borla exhaust. I am pretty happy with the time especially with my lack of drag racing experience.

Great times. I have driven a Cayman S in the 1/4 and was not able to get it in the 12's. Nice work!

Thanks Luis! First time I went I couldn't get traction but tonight I brought my NT01's that I use for the track. Didn't know if they would work for the drag strip and they hooked pretty good.

Nice times!

Thanks! I still think I left 1 or 2 tenths on the table.

If you haven't yet, you ought to go post this on the Cayman Club website.

That's a really respectable 60ft. Got a digital scan of the slip?

Nicely done! 12's with no LSD...what RPM's did you launch at?

I'll have to find my camera and post a pic of the slip.

Around 4200 and slipping the clutch with made it slightly bog. After the 12.9 run I tried launching at 5200 and spun bad off the line.

great time! these car are def capable of 12's with very minor bolts ons.

Thanks!:D

very respectable...I need to test drive one of these sometime.

MSCaymanS,

Very nice! On the 5200 launch, did you get a lot of wheel hop? I put in RS mounts on the tranny which got rid of a lot of the hop, now I just get bog (but now my clutch is dying). Another benefit of the mounts is much better shifting.

JT3,

Definitely drive a Cayman S. They are a hoot.

I miss mine so much already. I mean the m3 is a FUN car to drive, but the cayman S is on a whole other level! its THE MOST fun ive ever had in a car except for maybe a GT3, but more fun than lambos, ferraris, etc.
