Alright, i'm just gonna tell you my best results and then you can read the other stuff about my first runs and also some runs in a GT...

0-60 about 6.3 (couldn't get the thing to tell me it again after i ran the 1/4)

1/4 mile 14.67 @ 100.9 mph (was very impressed, but was on slight down hill, however, towards the end of the 1/4 went back up equally, so i'm sure its pretty accurate. possibly why my 100.9 is close to fazms 100.5 but .2 seconds difference)

Overall, my first runs i was not impressed, had my gf's dad in the car with me (he owns the GT) and i also was on a very hilly road (god i thought i lived in florida, these were up and down hills, cant be good for the G readings) so my first run was a shocking 15.7, then my second was a 15.5. After returning home, we took my gf's dad GT out (2005 auto too) and with the first run ran a 6.0 second 0-60 and a 14.5 1/4mile (was not impressed, and felt much faster). We tried it again on a much flatter area, and just 0-60, and he got it down to 5.4 sec 0-60 (more like it). we didnt do any more 1/4's because there was a cop sitting on the road we were zooming up and down on. His GT has about 2000 miles on it, completly stock, with windows down, both of us in it, and holding the brake with throttle to get a better jump. (his is auto like mine) I also used this technique to get my 6.3 sec 0-60 and 14.67 1/4. It was also pretty humid out (looked like rain), and about 85 degrees out.

Ask me some questions, i'm sure i missed somthing you guys would like to know...

Very nice. Having an extra person in the car really hurts. When i tried it i couldnt crack 7 in 0-60 or 15.7 in the quarter. I have 5 months to wait until we have ideal conditions to race again. 115 doesnt make for great power The low humidity is nice, but the hot air kills.

Radio might be pulling juice from the battery? I really doubt it would be significant unless you have a 2000 watt amp in there we dont know about. Vents just open vents letting air flow through. No power being pulled there unless its being circulated.

I'm hoping with a CAI and tune i could get into the 5's to 60. But i have a manual tranny, dunno about with the automatic. Bone stock i've pulled 6.4's, and pretty good at constantly gettin 6.6 and 6.7's.

One thing i just noticed is you have wider tires. Thats something i dream for

Ok Echo7, its on its way.. It might be tough to beat your 1/4mile time.. I'll see what I can do on the 0-60 time.. Off the top, the 0-60 time I should be able to beat.. I'm guessing 5.8 sec.. LOL!!! Here we go!!

What I find interesting is you had 2 adults in the car for these test?
