Nice job man ;)

[BLLDOGG]

um......ok. i dont see how its a good job. how was the weather and track prep. what temp was your motor?

[Bradley]

the weather was nice and clear out with a breeze in the air. The track i dont think is really prepped that much, they put VHT on it at the start of the night and that is about it im pretty shure. There is a wet box but i never went into it. When i left the track the billboard said 81 degrees at 730 pm. after my first pass my engine temp went up to a scoch above 210 but i got it back down to 160 before my next run with the switch. after the second run it was about 180-190 but once again i got it down to about 160.

[BLLDOGG]

all cars run different. good job. try to get more runs

[Bradley]

yeah i guess but it has no tune or gears or headers or cams or nothing, justthe basic bolt ons and it has over 86k on it. What are your times at the track bulldog?

I ran a 15.7 completely stock with busted tranny mounts, open diff 3.23's, worn tires, and in general a beat up camaro.

Also, 155,000+ Miles

Not trying to sound cool or anything, I just think you could run better with the mods you have.

['98 BlackBird]

you would be surprised at what our cars run with some of the mods. Look at my mods, and I can only run 15.7.
Weather and track prep can play a HUGE factor. For your first time out, I would say good job. Keep practicing and get some drag tires.

take it to MAR in wentsville and i bet you could get your 60's down a hair , not to mention nicer people running the track

When i was stock my first time at the track i ran a 9.9-1/8th, and that was my first time at the track on my 3rd run. You need to learn your car.
