Last night (Sac.) I recorded my best time so far (13.694 @ 100.501 with a 2.069 sixty). With an offroad pipe and 1.8 sixty I should be able to run 13.5 ).

Anyways, big ups to WIKD281 for parting with the ETs they helped me practically cut .3 off my best time. It's funny, and Drew had the same problem, I was still spinning a little even after ROASTING em. Oh well, I'm happy nonetheless.

MY01, what happened??????

Hey my car is known as the slug...
13.6 doesnt qualify as a slug, 14.6 does!

Great ET for a 2.0 60 ft! How are you launching to get 2.0's from ET streets? 1.8X 60 fts should come from a 4500 RPM drop with your setup. That would be good for a solid 13.4 with no problem.

you might consider putting your stock MAF on. I think your mph should be a little higher. Great run however!

I'm launching around 3500-4000 RPM. Yeah, a 13.4 is possible but a think that's a few mods away ...

Thanks fellas .

I would have expected that heavish car to run more mph for the ET. Not much more tho maybe 101-102

Whats up bud? Did you take off your front sway bar? That might help out a little for your 60fts?

What's up YesIDid, I finished up the night 2 runs after you left. It wasn't that bad of a night. I had a great time there. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I'm heading up there Wed night. Got another rain check I ordered a Bassani off road X-pipe, with Mils. I hope I get them before Wed, but who knows. Talk to you later

Trust me, you're gonna love that x-pipe. It's worth at least .3 . You're hooked now huh?

Hey Mike, is your car lowered at all? I found out why I couldn't 60ft to save my life....lol I lowered my car and never bothered to change the pinion snubber. It turns out that I wasn't transfering the wieght as well as it should have been. Scott, (90GT), mentioned the snobber idea to me. So I went home and watched some old video of me making passes on the slicks before I lowered the car and sure enough, my weight transfer had gone bye bye .

Thanks again Scott....BTW, 1.746 isn't bad right?

Do you have a pic of your car with moonroof? I would like to see how it looks with it. Later![/QB]

It's kinda funny, I've never taken a pic of my car. I don't have a scanner or a digital camera either. I just started a new job so I definitely plan to get a digital camera.

When I get pics I'll post em .

BTW, it really sets the car off . I love it and it was worth the $$$$.
