1st time
went to the track for the 1st time last night. Ran the car as I drive it everyday. Had 1/2 tank of gas, full interior and wheel anchors, haha. 2nd & 3rd runs I loaded the stall converter, 1st & 4th just went brakes to gas.

Man our cars are so fast.
lol. 1/8 is only .3 sec slower than a 5spd integra/miata mx-5 with bolt ons though, not bad for a heavy ass auto v6 stang. |
yeah they are. Man the rest of those peeps at the track didn't know what hit them, haha. But it was still an awesome time!
oh, btw I raced at Firebird Raceway in Phoenix, AZ. I now know how you folks feel at sea level/close to it, my car felt like it gained 10rwhp, it was ridiculous, the elevation mod ftw!! |
do you have a V6 or GT??? and any mods??
|
ok so just read your name, probably should have done that earlier, but mine is a V6 too, and i was thinking about taking it to the tracks, the only mod i got on mine is a cool air intake.
|
yep, V6, auto. I have a CAI and Mac Cat back exhaust. I raced with full interior, 1/2 tank of gas and my rims. I am sure I could have cut a 16.0 at least if I didn't have these big heavy ass rims on my car. One guy I went with, 3.8 V6, auto, and cai, plus weld in mufflers pulled a 16.0, just so you know.
|
hmmm ok sounds pretty sweet....but im still just a beginner at this stuff....yeah mines a 5 spd. 3.8 w/cool air intake, sooo eventually ill take mine to the track and i guess ill see how i do there..

Good stuff, I see some room for improvement though. My very first 1/4 mile run in my v6 (mods were CAI and Exhaust, 18x9 rims) was a 16.051. My best run in the v6 was 15.6. 60' were always 2.2-3. Elevation was 192ft.

It was an auto. I always put it in drive, turned off the O/D and turned of the traction control. About as much as you can do with an auto haha.
