13.9-13.7 unless you are a great driver. I'm assuming you've got good tires.

South Texas? What is the track's elevation? I think there is a track down there somewhere that is below sea level or something.

If it's that track I'm thinking of, maybe mid 13's or less?

i ran a 13.8 with my mods, on a hot humid day. so i would say maybe a 13.8 or better.

If the car is stalled and you've got good weather and a set of DR's, I'd say 13.4-13.6's aren't out of the question.

If it's your first time however, or if you don't have a stall, or DR's, or good weather, then you could be VERY high 13's or worse.

I run Nitto dr's as well with pretty much the same bolt ons on a 5-speed, and ran a 13.3. So considering you have an auto, i'm going to say a 13.5-13.6 if you get a great launch.

im sure if you get at least 3 runs you can perfect your launches on your automatic.. especially on DR's... mid thirteens is my bet

i hate being at a high DA. its hard for a bolt on geared gt to hit 13.8 here.


like everyone else says depending on your 60' you'll see mid 13's.
