Well, I was at the track again and managed to get a better time! 13.149@105.25 and a 1.88-60'. 330'-5.436, 1/8-6.436@82.28, 1000'-10.995. It is roughly 60 degrees out. My 3rd run, I had a 1.80-60' but missed 2nd gear and still made 13.47@104. My other run wa 13.24@104.89, 1.898-60'. People at the track are having a hard time believing my mods. Some couldn't believe I was cutting these 60' times with the stock pirelli's. I'll scan the timeslips Saturday.

Good grief man! That is awesome. I'm thinking you are getting addicted to the strip. Keep up the good work.

I would be very curious to see what you could run in a bone-stock 05. You really should not lose much considering how minor your mods are.

I would like to see what I would do in a bone stock as well. I really didn't get the really comfortable with the car until last Wednesday night at the track. I am not quite consistant yet though. One of my runs, I let the clutch out a bit too quick and the wheels just broke loose.

Dave you're one heck of a driver, that's all I have to say. I'm looking forward to meeting you and seeing your car in person at Bradenton in a few weeks

Thanks Dave. I think that anyone here could do the same thing with seat time. Last night was my 7th time at the track with an average of 2.5 runs per night. Most nights, I would only get 2 runs. Lately, I've been getting 5 runs. I have linky for timeslip now.

Nice times! Throw on some 4.10's or 4.30's and some drag radials and you will hit mid 12's. :worship:

The camaro I ran against had a turbo with 20lbs boost. I was ahead of him at the 1/8, due to getting out first. I saw him gaining on me REAL quick and then pass me. Afterwards, someone told me he had it modded pretty heavy.

An intake and a little more tuning and you may be able to hit 12s on the stock tires.

I went to the track, yet again tonight....with 3/4 tank of gas. I was cutting the same 60', but was laying down 13.24-13.35 all night. I don't think I'll be back until I get my 4.10's (which I picked up today) installed. After I run her a few time, I'll progress to the M/T tires.
