Cool

ok guys i went to Bradenton last night to see how much my time improved since i fixed a bad vacuum leak and installed an SLP LM1 catback. My PB the previous time i went was a 14.975 at 91MPH

well i entered i turned my tech card in and i decided to just do a BS run with my little brother in the car to see how the track was. Well i ran hard the car hard and not expecting a decent time since i had my brother in the car and accidently leaving th AC on. Well i ran a 14.825 at 92, a new PB which suprised the hell out of me, so i promptly went back to the staging lanes and kicked my brother out of the car and turned the AC off and ran a 14.602 at 93. so for the next few laps i ran between 14.6-14.8 until i finally ripped off a 14.582 which had me totally excited that i had dropped .4 tenths off my old PB with so little work.

i had a couple notable races, atleast to me, i ran a c4 vette(i think it was a c4) and destroyed it. i also had a few other fun runs and got to talk to several mustang guys who had much faster cars than me.

oohh yea my car is a 94 GT all stock except an O/R H-pipe and SLP LM1 catback.

long tubes and a new H-pipe will be ordered tonight

I think you did well considering what you have! Hope to see you shave several seconds off your slip in-time...

not bad at all.

The long tubes and H pipe should be worth 2 tenths atleat, and probably almost 2mph. with the gears you should be in the 13's


get some trickflow heads and a new cam in that thing asap.

That's the same setup that my buddy has in his 95. Basically the Trick Flow top end kit (heads, cam, intake) with full bolt ons and 3.73's. He puts down close to 300 rwhp.

Nice run BTW.
