Default Track debut for 2012 GT

We will see what she does... 2012 GT, auto on street tires.

If I don't get into low 13's, I will be very disappointed.

i went to my local 1/8 track and was able to pull of a 1.96 60ft on stock tires and run a 8.36 at 84 mph.. thanks about a 13 flat.. only think i did was lower the tire pressure to 26psi.. 2012 GT auto..

on a side note.. installed BAMA race tune (91 gas), Letal H pipe, C&L CAI, and GT500 muffs and the car ran a 8.04 at 90mph spinning the stock tires big time on the 1-2 shift..

Were you spinning the tires bad? That mph should get you in the 12s.

Definately need to work on the launch. My times in sig. Looks like you spun like nobodies business off of the line. Try launching in either normal Advanced Trac or Sport Mode Advanced Trac. I ran in normal, and it netted me a 12.959 @ 110......BONE stock w/ 700 miles on 'er.

I'm gonna try in sport mode. It was humid as hell and my mph is definitely good for 12's.

My next mod will be wheels/tires and see how deep I can get into the 12's.
