13.8 @ 105 Wtf!!!

Ok my mods are listed in my signature... I went to the track last night (over 500 cars) about 490 of them hondas with fartcans, what a sight to see LOL.... so anyways... this was my first time at the track with the ss... it was about 50 degrees outside slight wind towards us Las Vegas Motor Speedway and i kept pulling 2.4 60 fts and 13.8-13.9's :rolleyes: ... I dunno wtf is up... :(


I was power shifting at 6,000 and never missed a gear... granted I'm on F1's but still...

there was 2 03 cobras there... they were pulling 13.5-13.6's with good drivers... no spin off the line or boggle...


I'm thinking new tires...

One other kid at the track had a 02 ws6 same mods as me.. with BFG's and he was pulling 12.80's at 108... so i think new tires and im in the 12's...:bow:

mph seems a tad low. I would guess it would be higher.

Mph is low because he is not racing at sea level. The Vegas track is 2000 feet+ (not sure of the exact elevation). Welcome to racing at altitude! I race at 4000-5100 feet depending on track. Get that 60 foot time down by slipping the clutch, better tires, laying just a little rubber, etc. You should be able to run low 13s to high 12s with a killer 60 foot time (with your trap speed of 105).

Ohhh. That explains it:) Nice times.

Vegas track is 2200 ft..with a typical DA in the 3500-4500 range.


raced there many times.:D

yeah, i agree. get those 60' times down and u will definately see some low 13's and mabey some 12's.

It's all in the 60' ........... Get it down.

My friend's A4 35th anniv SS ran bone stock paper filter and all 13.3 @ 108 @ sea level though @ about 75 degrees. Your prob right there just need different altitude.:)

I highly recommend some Nitto drag radials. Its dry where you are so rain isn't much of an issue. The track is great ( I have raced there a few times), and the altitude will hurt your ET a bit.

I agree with low 13's, provided you can hook up. Try shifting at 5800 instead of 6000 and see what happens.
