  • 1st time at the track

    1st time ever.
    My quickest time was 15.921 @ 86.54mph.
    I had a lot of fun and now see why you guys are nuts about this sport.
    Just thought I would share that. I'm still excited [img]graemlins/fluffy.gif[/img]

      16.8 for my first time (car was hot, stock, temp was hot, humid, and I DIDN'T POWER BRAKE LOL)

      Good run, you'll get hooked on improving your time. Keep us updated on mods and et's in the future!

        R/T....1.199
        60'....2.359
        330....6.715
        1/8....10287
        MPH....70.10
        1000...13.327
        1/4....15.921
        MPH....86.54

        This was my 3rd run so I was still working on my r/t. My quickest r/t was .681 but .9 was my average.
        It was about 70 deg and I have no clue about the humidity. It started to rain 30 mins down the road so it had to be sort of humid.
        There was a 3.4 out there that was running high 17s with the owners dad driving. I don't see why he let someone else drive his car down the track the whole time. What's the fun in that.
        There was also a girl driving 89 2.8 firebird that was running 18s and wooping ars in the brackets.

          oh, the only mods I have is k&n air filter and flowmaster. What should I do next to improve my times? 3.42? CAI?

            Well, I'm in a similar boat as you and everyone is recommending 3.42's with LSD followed by a converter [img]smile.gif[/img]

            Don't worry about reaction.. it is nice to get a low one, but it doesn't mean anything when doing timetrials. Those numbers are great for your first time out though.

              I recommend you swap your 2 pc. driveshaft for the 1LE. I swapped mine for a 1 pc., not the 1LE, and damn. [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

                Mine came with a one piece.
                I'm thinking about a cam, 2500 stall converter, and 3.42 posi. Then headers and cai in the future.
