Baseline runs

What were all your baseline 1/4 runs in your cars before you started modding them?

I ran a 14.8@93 stock (I was embarassed by that)

installed CAI, removed jack/spare, and lowered rear tire PSI to 26 and got a 14.4@97 with a 2.1 60' time at the same track.

just curious to see what you guys started out with.

Hmmm. Years ago when I bought my car it was still street legal and the previous owner had a 383 installed with some funky air intake system over the carb to run to the TPI inlet tube over the rad.

First time out it ran 15.2. I yanked the air intake system off and installed an open air filter and ran 14.2. That was back in 1999. I've come a long way since then.
