Default V6 At The Track

Wasn't bad, having some transmission issues that need to be taken care of, couldn't get a good burnout on the MT Slicks.. so I'd spin some in first..but overall.. came out pretty decent.

On a 100 shot.

I also ran a 12.7x with a .064 reaction, but its 3am and I'm ready for bed. I ran a 12.8 as well. And a 13.0 when i screwed up and didn't shift quick enough. Yes, I'm an auto, but right now the car doesn't want to go above 4500 RPMs on the shift, so I was manual shifting to 3rd all night.

That is the 12.8 post, screwit, I went 12.71@107 also. And like 12.78@106.. I'll figure out how to scan these things larger tommorow when I'm not beat.

Not bad at all, just figure out the rest of your combo and do work.

14.9 @ 103 spinning..i never had slicks or drag radials on..and i was on a 75 shot.

I'm still figuring out the car, it still has some bugs.. I'm hoping I can up the shot to a 150 get the cats off the car, get the transmission fixed, and re-dyno and hope for low 12s or high 11s..

Definately satisfied with the car now. I was down pretty bad and ready to scrap it after seeing the dyno results.. got the issue taken care of on that..

Still really want a GT with a hellion kit...thats next

dang that thing is going to move if you up the shot and once you get all the tweaks worked out. But yeah you must have been spinning all the way down the track looking at the mph.
