whats an 88 mph trap good for? i was checking through my slips (from last summer 03) and i was turning 88 mph traps, but only running 16.8 my 60' were all right around 2.4. my mods were header, catback exhaust and cai. i also had heavy ass 18" wheels and 2 12's in the back, full interior.
granted, i know my 60' sucked but that was also my first time ever at the track. since then, i have added afx udp, afx solid front mount dropped the 18's (back on 14" stockers) and 12's and took out back seat, spare tire and jack and all accessories. and the normal plugs, wires, SD coil and a test pipe.
i dunno why i made it a long ass post, i was really just wondering what an 88 mph was good for? lol
edit: also, i havent been back to the track since then. i'm hoping to go before they close for the season
i run 87 MPH and run 16.0 depending on the day with my steelies on. With my dads 17" enkeis i run bout 16.3 with a 87 MPH. Considering your car is fairly heavy, that is not too bad of a time IMO.
yeah, my car feels like its a pretty good runner, i just gotta learn how to drive the damn thing. i've been getting better at lauching it (at least it seems like it, haven't been to the strip since then) my only problem seems to be shifting. well not shifting per say but just my left leg lol. i have a habit of not shifting until the clutch is all the way in and not letting off until its in the next gear.
Todd, i should've just looked at your sig for a comparitive time... minus about half a second for lack of driving skill lol how do you do it?
