Default just got my 1st run in

just got back from the track, and i'm disappointed with my times, but im pretty happy with my mph.

here is the run down.

90LX 105 on body, 98or99 exploder swap. GT40p heads, and GT40 intake
BBK c/a/i
BBK h pipe with cats(ungutted) and flows
Adjustable fuel pressure regulator
urethane motor and trans mounts
E303 cam
underdrive pulleys
motorsport shorty headers
LenTec converter and valvebody with OD lockout switch. street terminator model
new brake booster,master cyl and wheel cyl
weld wheels
3.73 gears

best time was 15.126 at 100.30 60' 2.562 i guess i'll be in the market for some slicks, and some suspension upgrades, i'm pretty embarrassed with my times, but traction on street tires sucks

But I bet you had fun! Your mph is indicative of a mid-high 13. At least you know your car has some good potential.
