New track times...

I realize my times are nothing spectacular, but I am still happy and thought I would share.

Stock, the car went 14.592 @ 97.2 in the 1/4 with my stereo equipment in the car.

After the SLP CAI and Magnaflow Catback, I managed at 14.299 without the speaker box, but with everything else (amp rack - see link in sig for pics).

Saturday, after nothing more than a swap from 2.73s to 3.42s, I ran to a best of 14.016 in 70-80* weather. I managed a 2.033 60' on street tires, a 9.0xx in the 1/8.

I did have one problem, the car bounced off the rev limiter on every run on the 2-3 shift. So I'll have to get it reprogrammed to shift the car just a tad sooner to keep it off the limiter. Maybe that will improve it slightly.

Most of my car club seemed to be down .2-.3 from their previous best, so I wonder if I should have done better.

Anyway, just thought I would share!

98.90 I think on the 14.01 run.

Bumping the rev limiter I know is holding me back at least a .1 or so, cause the car hit it two or three times before shifting on each run.

I was running on Kumho Ecsta 711s that are worn almost to the wear bars, so there might have been some spinnage...

Here's the basic info from the slip:
60': 2.033
1/8 ET: 9.011
1/8 MPH: 78.53
1/4 ET: 14.016
1/4 MPH: 98.90
