I think I'm going to be there tonight. Haven't run my car yet, got her in January, curious to see what I get for base times with just a CAI and tune.

First time at a track ever could only get 2 runs in since i didnt have a helmet. 13.8 first run, 13.4 second run with just a CAI and a tune, couldn't be happier lol

on street tires and stock 3.31 gearing I think 13.4 is not bad

Great starting point! Only 2 runs with no helmet? Interesting

Curious to see what I'll run with my mods, how was the track prep?

the track was pretty good, was worried about spinning but the track gripped pretty good.

Yea I could only get 2 runs in, they warned me after my first run which was 13.8, so I had to find a helmet, this nice guy who had an 89 Turbo Trans Am let me borrow his helmet for a run and I got my 13.4 Anything faster than 13.99 requires a helmet, thats gonna be next on my list before I go back.



Also got a video of it :-)

Got my *** handed to me by that Camaro though @ 10.8 seconds lol

Nice times!

Is your car auto or manual?

auto, I do have a ratchet shifter though, and the 13.8 on the first run I screwed up because I thought I'd try it manually first, it redlined and I lost time cuz of it so I just kept it in drive for the second run. I shifted a bit late lol

Camaro was moving well. You ever see the video of a guy who has like a 12 sec car, and he lined up next to an 8 second Grand National or something? Pretty funny.

Nice runs man, there was some guy who said he went when they opened and the track prep was horrid, like new 5.0's were running 14's. Glad to see its better now
