1st automatic
 

I was wondering if there is any special way to launching automatic's off the line at the dragstrip ?? also , it's an 04gt w/ x-pipe(o/r), cat-back , 70mm th. body , ported plenum , K&N filter , SCT XC2 , w/ stock gear's . what kind of time's should I expect in 1/4 mi. ?? what do stock auto run ?? anyone know ??

I just stomp on it from a idle. I have similar mods except TB/Plenum. Check my sig. Still runnin on original tires too.

thanks for the info punisher . I'm going to the track saturday . hopefully I can run a similar time . what's your 60ft. time ??

Whenever i race (havent tried this on the track) i put my foot on the brake and rev it to 1500rpm then let off the brake and stomp on the gas, my car with just borla catback ran a 14.1

Great article.. read it :poke:

With no suspension, no stall, and the power in my sig.. i'm runnin mid 13's all day.

yeah with cams and long tubes and all the other bolt ons... im suprised your not running better than mid 13's

been gettin 2.1xx 60's with a little wheel spin off the line. I think with new shoes I could get a 2.0xx...

Its better to launch off idle with the stock stall guys. With a higher stall you can launch off idle or put the car in 2nd and try the brake/ gas thing. I was running 13.5's with 17x9 black bullitts, DR's, Maximum Motorsports lca's, eibach pro kit, full exhaust, plenum, and t/b.

Last time I went to the track with those mods plus, 3500 stall, cams, draglites- skinnies/ ET streets and ran a 12.7. Again launching off idle.
