Default Quarter mile time good or not?

So I went to Learue(marion raceway) in Ohio yesterday and raced my 99 GT convertible 5-speed. It took me a while to get used to the road but finally managed a 14.27 in the quarter at 95.74mph with a 2.16 60 foot. Engine, tranny and rear are all stock with a 158,000miles on them the pressure plate is acting up sometimes. Only suspension mods are upr coilovers with stock struts and 350lb spring rate. Tire wise I am running a 315/35/17 summitumo at 27lb of pressure.
Oh yeah at the moment it also has a slp loudmouth catback on it.


It this a good time for a 99 convertible? Whats is stock 1/4mile time on a 99 GT Convertible full weighted?

Definately not bad. Get some gears and suspension, you'll really have some fun.

that's a really good time, esp. for stock... my stock auto coupe ran a 14.51 at 95 with a 60' of 2.23, so you sir are very good at launching and shifting... air down the tires and you'll see a 2 flat 60' and possibly a 14 flat run!!!

Awesome how much time do you think I will drop with adding a set of strange shocks up front with rebound adjustment?

Here is a video of the run:

yep I think the ride height is set so when it launches the wheelwell openings in front and rear are about equal height.
