1st time at the track ,ever

Hi first off I am new so howdy to everyone. Went to the track today to see what my Formula could do. These times are with a m6, only mod is borla exhaust, street tires(yokohama avid t4)
I had the tires at 35 psi, I did not know where to set them. Well here goes lemme know your guys input here



car is a 97 formula m6

r/7: 1.340
60: 2.157
1/8: 9.139
mph: 78.44
1/4: 14.128
mph: 98.43

I was fairly happy I didnt know what to expect really this was my second run I ended up getting my r/t down to about 660-700

So whaddya think? Pretty good for a stock car on street tires?

Hi All,

So have you gotten the bug? I was in the same boat about six weeks ago. Since then I have gotten my r/t pretty consistent at .700 and improved from a 13.507 to a 13.251 by switching to drag radials. I just had my rear end gear changed from a 2.73 to 3.73 and can't wait to see 12.xx
