I think your car has a low (13.0-13.2) in it. If you havent ever been to the track or your not that experienced than you might have room for improvement there. What are your 60ft times? From your 60ft time we can kinda pinpoint what you need to work on.

Nothings wrong with your car you should be able to get a little better just with more expirence @ the track.
That was the first time at the track and that s pretty good.

What were your 60ft times?? How about your 330ft times?? Also, what RPM did you launch at??


For some reason, I think w/ a tune, and a little better driving, you could have a high 12... But I'd like to see more info from your timeslips..

You got 1.8 60's? Yeah then your ETs are bad. I got 13.7 at 100 w/ a 2.0 60'. And you have more stuff done than I do. Maybe not being tuned after cams is your problem. I don't know.

Is it an automatic??? and what kind of fuel did you put in it? What temp was it outside? What size is your "custom" exhaust......if your car is manual you should be better then that-if you can drive.....id except those #'s out of an auto....by the way how do you like those ET streets? I was thinkin bout those....

Defanitely get a tune, thats probably my only suggestion. With such a great 60 foot, you should defanitely see low low 13's with your mods. How fast do you shift gears? Maybe try and make it faster.
