First time at the track.....
Well I'm a FWD ricer so let me go ahead and get the excuses out of the way...
*First time Evarr
*Cheap Street tires/ didn't mess with the pressure.
*Still on low boost.
Anyways I decided to go last minute and went to one of the "local" tracks..It's a 1/8 track..sucks but that's all that's close.
1st run was a 8.8 @ 93mph. I got a lot of runs in... Best run of the night was 8.3 and best trap was 94mph. Average runs were ~8.7 @ 93-94mph.
Nothing I'm really proud of but it was nice getting the experience. Now I just need to save for slicks and a wot box.....Heh and then Meth and 5 more lbs of boost..

This car sucks launching on street tires. I got the best time just getting off the line like I was taking off quick at a light. I normally have 0 wheel hop on the street but I also got it in 2nd pretty bad on a few runs. That was with the cut out open, I sounded like a dump truck going down the strip popping fireballs.

That's about right. This is what another guy that has a Stage 3 Srt-4 told me..
"I was getting 92-93 thru the 1/8 on slicks and 93-94 on streets. On slicks I'd trap around 118 thru the 1/4 and around 120 on the street tires. "

speaking from personal experience, i was on DR's on the turbo setup going 90mph i believe and was going 115 in 100* air. so yea, you will be hitting 120 because im fairly confident in better air mine would have been.

Looking at my Dyno graph I'm going to try shifting earlier to see if it makes a diff. I was shifting at 6.5K The dyno run ends right at 6K.
Note..low reading Mustang dyno, cut out closed through a 2.5 catback.
Btw ignore the squiggles...my son got a hold of it..
What do you guys think?
