It was 60 today and i took my car and bike to the track. Very first pass went 13.93 at 98 mph. Never got back in the 13's again but ran 14.0's all day. I'm leaving it in D with traction control and overdrive off. Stalling it up and mashing the gas. I'm sure this isnt the best method it only 60 footed 2.06. But overall im very happy with the ET's bonestock and all. Ohh the ZX-10 went 10.30's @ 140 with me on it and 9.90's with a smaller rider 146 mph.

That is the same technique I used in my wifes "06" 13.93@99 and a 13.83@99 and like you very happy with the ET from a bone stock auto. Nice Job!:nice:

Have you tired shifting yourself to keep it in 3rd going thru the lights?? Seems like it falls on its face in 4th? Well i think it got into 4th? I'll have to try it again next week to see what gear it gets in.

Yes, you are right it does get into fourth going through the lights. I haven't tried to hold it in third yet. Sounds like you'll be out before me still raining here in WA. Let us know how it turns out.
