Headed up to the track for the first time today. Got lots of pictures and some videos (see here). I managed to trap a 14.3 twice today. I'm still completely stock, but not for too long. I did so much better then I thought I was going to. I can't wait for next month. I plan on having a lot of stuff done before the Michigan Meet May 13th. Hopefully Intake, Exhaust, GM Stage 1, and a 2.9 pulley. I want to get a dyno before I do anything though, get a baseline. Anyways, I think this thread is useless without slips, so here they are. I'm 209



and my best here

 

Great runs! Be sure to keep going and practicing! Just a suggestion, you'll drop your times considerably with JBP bushings, mounts (tranny/engine, or both), and DR's. Traction/wheelhop will only get worse as you add power if you don't do suspension mods as well. Take care.

 

yea, I plan on adding mounts really soon.

 

What was running the high 15's????? Nice runs btw

 

I believe the top slip was agains the LS that went with us, roccityroller. He ended up doing pretty well with the 2.2. My best one, I forget who I was up against. That was after we finished lunch, and I headed out again.

 

I was there too. My buddy had the red redline. I didnt take my ls up there today cuz i can only drive for work and school cuz of a little speed problem that resulted in a restricted license. Hopefully will get the full thing in may but may be pushed back til august. Anyways it was a good time up there he managed to get 15.1 and i saw that nice run for the 14.3 nice stuff. Hope to see ya at some other meets. OBTW my name is Brandon if you were wondering who i was

 

I am guessing both were against the LS since you ran car 205 both times.

 

haha, I really need to start looking at those numbers before I post. First on the other post with the mach 1 saying I thought it was the DSM, and now here..

 

Was there a guy up there with an 04 GT Stang that was auto? Reason I ask is because on the Mustang Forums, he said he wanted some Cobalt owners to go up there and race him so he could show Cobalt people how slow the Cobalts are. He said he was willing to put $500 on it.

Thats what he said...

 

nice run man

 

He is upset because his car can't run 14's. I'm sure of it ...if its the same one I seen..

 

I really wanted to run against a Mustang GT, but I didn't see any up there. The Cobra and the 2 Mach 1s where the only ones I saw

More proof that a stock '06 is a little faster than a stock '05 - let's face the facts. Most stock '06's have better track AND dyno numbers STOCK!! Nice runs BTW!!!

 

Great times for stock!!!
You should hit 13's pretty easy with just a few mods, like CAI and mounts, or cat-back.
Congrats!!

 

[QUOTE=2006ArrivalBlueSS]are there any known differences between the 2 years that would cause this? 14.3 is a really good time with only a 2.3 60'. hell, if this guy does the suspension mods to stop wheel hop and gets DRs, he could hit 13s with a 2.0 60' with no engine mods.

 

good numbers

I bet my 05 can take your 06 tho!. jk.
To the thread starter, great great times, keep it up.

Yeah, i thought a lot of people already knew that.. 06's are running a tad bit leaner then the 05s thus they make more power stock. But the 05s should be able to be modded slightly more then 06s stock thus because of running richer. But of coarse getting the stage kits reflash put you up all to the same level.

 

Good driving man . Thats cool for dead stock and your first time out

 

I was very surprised with it. My last couple runs I just couldn't get the tires to hook up though. I think I might be getting some mounts asap now

 

I saw a red mustang up there that looked to be modified that was running 12s don't know if that may have been the guy or not

 

How can you say that when him and I ran the extact same times? I might have exhaust and intake but if you minus his 60'fter another .1 off and the fact when he did that run he took out his front seat and spare/jack and any other non-essential crap it's the same run...

Same car, same ecu/pcm, different year.

 

Nice run! Great job out there. Either you are great on track or that thing is a factory freak!

 

I'm hopeing for both

 

I don't know how much weight he took out, it doesn't sound like much, but you have an exhaust and intake. I wouldn't compare a stock car to a modded one.
i don't want to believe the 06's are faster, either
