With what you have, don't be suprised if the 1st few times you go that you'll be running in the low 15's.
Once you go a few times and get to know how your car acts off the line, then you'll start breaking into the 14's.
After that, depending on the tires and such, you might work your way down to 14.5's
Racing at night (generally speaking) usually means slower times than during the day. I ran my best on a warm day that had the sun on the track, using drag radials. Next time I raced, at night, I could only get 14.3's.

And don't woory about those tuners cars. Most of the fast ones are using some kind of power adder (turbo, nitrous, 4wd, etc....), so have been doing it for awhile and know what they're doing.

Just go out and have fun. That's the only way to find out about your car.

Why would you run slower times at night? I would figure the opposite, it cools down a little bit; given that the track is still prepped well, I would think you would run a little faster

*edit, "sun on the track" I can see how you would stick a little better... it all depends on the track I guess

I think tim was right with the 14.2 at least.
I have full exhaust, pulleys, no ac or smog. As well as stock 2.73s, and I'm heavy. I ran a 14.4. As the other guys said, the more experience you get, you'll shave tenths off of your time

You'll probably be .10 quicker, at least, at night.
It cools down, becomes more humid. Thats what helps......
