And I think I did alright...

Car is bone stock except for a Magnaflow Axleback (ie, no more power then stock)

60'-- 2.0928
330'-- 5.7950
1/8th-- 8.8656
1/8th MPH-- 80.24
1000'-- 11.5036
1/4-- 13.7349
1/4 MPH-- 100.29


Not too bad. These things like some clutch slippage and tire spin to keep them in their power band. I believe I can knock down the 60 foots to 1.9x's and run 13.5's stock.

In 07, the stock ratio is 3.31, but I opted for the optional 3.55s...

Only one reason I did it. 3.55's from the factory are only a $100 option... So when I do 4.10s in the 07, I have 3.55's left for my 90.

Good job. I'd be happy if my car was running, let alone 13's.

Nice runs... Ours was at an 1/8 event not to long ago and because of a leaf we didnt get a time, but the 330 was 5.71 I believe with a 2.02 60'. Cars can be solid middle 13s cars when stock...

Also I havent run a good time in it yet (only had a couple of passes) because it takes a lot for me to mentally slip the clutch as much as you need in these cars. 5.0s can survive on a quick slip and playing the with the throttle, whereas these cars need the clutch to be slipped like crazy.

Nice times. Another few runs and you have a 13.5 which is where I consider most of them to be at with good driving!

Damn wish you had done a run with it completely stock without the axlebacks, so we could see what they are capable of stock. probably 13.8-14.0

The axleback is worth nothing (literally 100% absolutely nothing)... They are capable of middle 13s with good driving bone stock, the axleback will not change that at all!

Yeah. The stock mufflers are not restrictive at all. You don't gain any HP from a muffler change, only sound. So these are bone stock numbers. The track is shut down for the rest of the year I think, so we'll have to wait till they reopen to get more times. By then, the only things I want to have done are control arms, and probably the Saleen Racecraft suspension setup (which will only hurt straight line performance, but oh well!)
