Went to the track tonite. Still running 13.44. I hooked good on launch, but still pulled a 2.0 60ft. I did spin 2nd more, but damn! What's the deal? I'm shifting like a mad man, not missing gears, shifting at 6800 everytime, launching at 2500rpms. I am honestly skeptical of the track time accuracy. One run said I ran 14.5 at 103.5. Is that even possible? Then I ran the exact same way, and went 13.44 at 105. Some other guys there said they had some fishy times too.( Fayetteville Motor Sports Park.)

.60 on average. I had one .56. But really, you can sit at the light all night if you want to. YourE/T isn't affected by your reaction time.

Yeah the fact that u didnt improve at all is fishy.. ur reaction wont effect ur e.t either... i assumed that you could knock off .2 with 4.10s... a guy at the local track runs 12.8 at 108 with 4.10s a shifter cold air catback and drag radials.. his 60 ' is 1.8 when he runs 12's ... if u can get a 2.0 u should be good for a 13.0 to a 13.2???

That's exactly what I was thinking. I pulled several 2.0s with mid to high 13s, which make no sense. I am going to head over to Rockinghams Track and see what kinda times I get. Alot of the guys at the track said they got better and more consistent times there.

Returned tonight since the temps have dropped into the low 50s, and ran a 13.22@107. This car continues to surprise me.

Very nice! Throw some sticky tires on there, launch at 3-4k and see some 12 second passes!
