Managed this winding out second and third to 7300 and NLS 3-4... Its definitely capable of some dangerous times.

Thanks man. It has so much more potential on slicks. I'm just way too broke right now.

Drove around the water box
No burnout
No rpms at the launch
Wound out all gears to about 6500-6600rpms

I only got to make 2 passes because it's late in the season and the place was packed.
I was shaking like a damn leaf on this pass.
My wife, a good buddy, my brother, his wife, my sister and our kids we're there watching my first time ever at a track hahaha.
I had a blast and didn't break anything and found 5 bucks in the parking lot, go me.

Wert you must be spinning those street tires hard! Your trap speed is very impressive. I ran the same time as you 13.3 but with a trap speed of only 108-109. Only mods were drop in filter and trifecta. Iam trying to get into the high 12s with just that. I also NLS every gear, ets drop significantly doing so.

Street tires are basically useless at the track with the Zfr. Now that I have the 4.45trans its basically dumb to even try a hard launch or wot second. Its beyond spin city really. I'm definitely spinning and can't do anything about it. Unless I get slicks. Getting into the 12s on streets on 93 is gonna be super hard. Best I ran on stock turbo was a 13.22 @ 107 on a 60ft in a negative DA last November.

Yea, your car is very impressive. I was supposed to try again yesterday but the track was closed so we will see if I can do it next week.

Don't try and launch aggressively then. Keep it easy in 1st, get on it a little more in second, and then rip it in 3rd.

I babied it out of the hole and hammered it only in third and forth and managed my 12.89 and a 12.94 @ 116. If I hammer down the hole time I can only get 13s but at high trap speeds. It sucks but its tricky. I might go one more time to the track this year. Other than that its useless without slicks. I'm just embarrassing myself and the car.

I'm attempting to get slicks for the 29th for when a group of guys I know are all going to the track. But I just took a chunk out of my thumb at work on the drill press and its gonna set me back. I don't think slicks are happening. :/

Wanna donate?

Haha I'm working out a partnership with a company to get some wheels and slicks myself. I'm afraid funds are scarce for all of us.

I dont have much choice. idk where the nearest 1/4 is. plus my car is basically stock so I cant justify driving x amount of miles when there is a track less than 10 minutes away. lol
