Default New track times...!!!

I have an automatic GT, with all the mods in my signature... I took out the subs and spare tire for the track last friday. On street tires, the first run of the night was a 13.1 at 105 mph. good?? bad?? I think it was amazing seeing that it chirped tires shifting from 1-2 and 2-3, and that before I had all the recent work done, I was running 14.1 at 100...!!! A whole second improvement from lt headers, catted x, delete plates, ud pulleys, and a bama tune!

Sounds about right. Some drag radials should drop you into the 12's without a problem.

Sounds great! I guess I won't race you when I see you going to Starbucks!

Yep, good numbers! And I bet it sounds badass with that exhaust set up you got there.

it is real loud when i get on it... other wise it just has a really nice muscle idle. im very happy that im pulling these times especially because its an auto. i am ordering 17 inch rims all around with performance nitto tires in the front and 555r drag radials in the back, so hopefully this should help a little like what stoenr said.

If your at 13.1 with 18's, you should be in the 12's with 17's and sticky tires,

I hope I have over 300 to the wheels... is that realistic to expect out of an auto after those mods? I really want to have the car dynoed, but I am also probably having a TCI street fighter put in soon. That should help on the track, I hope...

You have almost the same mods I have (except of the Spyder Driveshaft and M/T ET Street), I ran a 12.914 at the track a couple of weeks ago launching from a stop (no revving the engine up to 1800RPMs). I could have gotten a 12.8 if I practiced my launches a little more, hopefully at a track rental next month.
Those are good times though, you should get a set of M/T if you were spinning the stock tires though, the more you spin the slower your times will be, common sense, I know!
