Yes, you heard it first, like MTV news. All my time and effort dropped a second off my last best time of 15.2xx at 94.5 mph. My new best is 14.263 @ 99.99mph. And the rest of the runs were pretty much consistenly 14.5's in the mid 90's with one other 14.276 run @ 94.63mph.

I need more power up top to rev higher, and my launches all sucked ass except for that fastest run, but as I recall I was wheel hopping very badly anyway, so I don't know wth it is. I tried dropping tire pressure to about 23 psi and that reduced the hopping alot, but didn't improve 60 foots at all.

Fun, and now I need that bigger turbo.

there's a local guy here with a supra inside a 1st gen ford probe body. he's somewhere in the 9's but he should have done it with some class. what's the point of a ford probe that you can't drive on the street? Nothing, i tell you.

No wonder you think Aaron's 16g is so fast. But congrats on the numbers!

Now you're on that financial downward spiral. ;)

I ran a 15.3 consistently bone stock, a best of 15.1
I am hoping to go to the track next week and see whats up, if i judge by the people i have ran against, i would say high 13s is where i am at.
Congrats cromie. Now get that bigger turbo on there and put up some better times.
