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!!

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 *** 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.
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.
nice! Firebird raceway in phoneix is 1243ft. Was your car an auto or 5spd?
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.
yeah seriously. My car doesn't have TC so one less button to push, haha.
