Looked at the slips. That 11.2 was a 1.59 60'.

Looks like some good times to me. When you raced it, did you leave it full street weight or take some crap off like exhaust, seats, etc?

What needs to be done to hit 1.5's on the autobox?

Needless to say, get the 60' down and you'll be barking at 10's

I did a 1.59 the last time I was out, but I only made an 1/8th mile pass. 7.1@97mph. That was my best 1/8th mile pass.

Looked at the slips. That 11.2 was a 1.59 60'.

Nice, I guess its doable then, I'll have to change up some shifting points maybe and look at the tune a bit more.

The times are ok, but nothing to write home about.
I left everything in place, I'm not like the honda guys pulling everything out possible.
Plus I like to run it as it is on the street so I know what it does for the most part.

NO I'm not cool enough for anyone to just give me a go-pro and I don't own a vid camera or camera person.

This was the only video I found on my phone. The gf might have gotten a couple too, I'll check with her tomorrow.

Lol, running low 11's (knocking on 10's door) in a fairly full weight DSM with a stock frame turbo, is no big deal now a days? There's people with 62mm's running similar times (me included in my old Talon). I must be out of the loop, because I'd be proud...

Who says I am not proud?, there are a few people doing this not a lot but there are people doing it, the only reason I am not ecstatic is because the car has a more in it, the prior track passes and even todays abandoned pass show that. I just expect a lot I guess.

I don't care about the people who can't drive there setup's or wanted cars that were better at freeway pulls.

I ordered a 9" electric fan for my trans cooler last week and it showed up today and I got an orange gear display. I'm also pretty sure that I'm going to get rid of my custom programmed/chipped TCU and do the kiggly mod also.
