Default What do you think?

I am yet to take my car to the track as I am working 1200 miles away from home for the summer. When I get back, I am going to the track (in 2 weeks). Look at my sig and my HP and TQ. Keep in mind that my car weighs 3,650 lbs and I have heavy 20" rims to get grip with...I was just curious as to what you guys think I can run at the track? I prefer racing from a roll because I have momentum and dont have to get grip with my big *** wheels. Anyone have any estimates what my time and trap speed should look like?

Did you used to drive a riced out honda by any chance? [8D]
Pending your traction or lack there of and your driving skill I would guess 13.2 @104.

Haha no I did not use to drive a Honda. I had a Ford F-150 before the Saleen. I am shooting for mid to low 13s though...I have jsut heard its extremely hard to hook up these 20"s..

Well they weighed the convertible version and it came out to be around 3900 lbs? So i figured I am between 3650 and 3700lbs...

Thats what I am thinking...the only way I will be dissapointed is if I only hit 14's...although the moderator of the Saleen section, with basically the same setup as me, could only muster a 14.05 at best...
