i ran at the track a few days ago (full race weight, no jack spare or floor matts), had a little trouble on street tire but it wasnt too bad , but i know i shoulda been in the 13s except the driver is a little bulky at about 220
(this is without headers and shift kit, making a good base run for comaprison)
this is the best i could do , i had to leave cuz my budd f-ed up his car

R/T... .868
60'.... 2.186
330.... 6.071
1/8.... 9.227
mph.... 78.12
1000....11.943
1/4......14.239
mph..... 98.30

This is my better run even tho i redlighted and doesnt count this is what i ran , only diff thing i did was a slightly longer burnout and no air filter, caught about 2/10s , i coulda been in the 13s but i let off at the end cuz redlighting and i didnt think it counted (hence y my mph is slower but i ran faster??)

R/T... .219
60'.... 2.107
330.... 5.942
1/8.... 9.081
mph.... 78.63
1000....11.792
1/4......14.091
mph..... 97.47

what do u think for a stock Lt1 SS?
2.1 60' was prolly the best I could get out of street tires, if i could get a 2.0 13s woulda been mine . Drs would put me there easily

 

Not too bad. 60' kept you outta the 13s for sure. Long tubes should throw you into the 13.6-13.7 range.

 

thanks man ,
i was just wondering what ppl think for being teh second time at the track ever,
i mean it is an auto but i seem to be learning and def can do better

is my filter that restrictive that it held me back 2/10s (it was not even dirty) or is it just coincidence i did better?

i was getting my 60's down everytime i went up . so it coulda been learning that helped me out

Not bad at all for stock times man. Bone stock I couldn't get my car outta the mid-14's. Probably partly do to my horrible launching on street tires. Drag radials, CAI, and cat-back and I was running high 13's with a best of 13.7 @ 102. Added my MAC headers/y-pipe and new clutch and squeezed out the times in the sig. Still can't launch for ****, even with DR's I've never gotten less than a 2.1 60'. Hopefully one of these days I'll get the launch down to where it's supposed to be and finally hit 12's. And if I can't fix the launch, I'll just mod it some more.

 

Good job, I ran about the same at our crappy track here in Redding a couple weeks ago when all I had was my K&N.

 

Good Job, its running about what it should. How ever stock is boring, get to modding!

 

Not bad for an auto...id say your good for a 13.8

 

thanks guys

neil350 i got the headers in my room and shift kit, just bought some 16x8 rims for some slick so maybe ill have better times next time

antz97nj 13.8 is def possible with 2.0 60' or lower

 

JMO, you won't need slicks until you have a converter and gears. I ran on street tires until I got the converter. I always nailed a 2.0 60' with decent track prep. Now I have a 3200 stall and 3.73s and I run E/T streets. Hooks up real nice. E/T Streets will probably hurt you more than help you at this point. If you went with a good drag radial you'll be good for a long time.

 

thanks man i was thinking of just getting some used nittos or somthign for now, i am getting a converter sometime so that would help

any reason y my car would bogg down when doing a burnout , i do not have traction control?
maybe b/c of teh track prep??

 

Really nice stock times, Was the filter pretty dirty? usually a clean factory filter removed is worth a tenth.

 

Get some BF DR's for the 16's...and just switch them on for the track, it'll extend the life of your street tires also...You have to heat the **** outta nittos for a good 60, as long as your only using the dr's for the strip go BF's, better tire for strip then nittos

 

it wasnt really dirty, but it is getting close to my next oil change so its the time fro a new filter , so i guess im changing that soon

yeah i do hear BF DRs are alot better for track use

 

Pretty decent times for a "stock" SS. I dont think its stock when it rumbles like yours though

Headers, tune, E-WP, ASP Pulley, no cat, traction, 2800 stall and your set for low 13's high 12's...lets see what bank are you knocking over for 12's?

haha yeah thats ur settup lol , after the headers my mods will come to a halt for a while , gotta assest the situation of my financial satbility lol
