Hm.. see mine are slower.. I wonder why my car is so slow even with a CAI.. I get about a 2.0 -2.1 60' most of the time... could this be my gearing?

Yeah Im an auto.. but should the 10-15 hp difference be enough to make me lose 2-3 tenths??? That seem like ALOT of time for such little amount of hp..

Nice numbers.

As far as times. It all depends how you look at it. I personally dont usually run cars like my mustang at the strip. I dont have to. I can see exactly what other cars with the same mods run all the time with various drivers.

So being I really dont need to know how my driving compares to others. Unless I do some type of mod that not many people have done, I dont see the point in running the car other than for fun.
Which is reason enough I guess.

With other cars, that cannot be easily be compared to anything, need to be run to determine times.
