Tonight I went out to Union Grove with my roommate (1994 Mazda 626 with intake, exhaust, headers, and a race clutch) and two coworkers (2003 WRX, stock, automatic and a 2003 G35 sedan with CAI).

My runs were in full street trim, with subwoofer and spare tire left in the car, half a tank of 93 octane gas, and tires were left at normal inflation except for my last run. The weather was a very dry 51 degrees (perfect racing weather). Here are the results of each of our best runs:

Me: 15.050 @ 92.12

G35: 14.494 @ 95.29

WRX: 15.590 @ 89.02

626: 16.530 @ 84.88

On a run that was slower overall, I had a .176 R/T (it was ruined by a 2.47 60'). Overall I'm pretty happy with how this turned out and can't wait to get modding!

Also, I met one of our members out there, but I never caught his name. Whoever you were... thanks for your help!

Not bad with no track prep and a shitty 60 foot. Your R/T doesnt mean anything unless you are bracket racing FYI. :D

Yupp that member you met was me, my names Adam ..... No prob, I think you did great out there especially having evrythinggg in your car with extra weight...

Track wasnt prepped to good, I ran twice, I couldnt get better than a 2.1 60' again.... At least I hit my goal which was getting into the 13's (13.9)...... Its making me think about slicks :rolleyes: .... Nice meeting you.

I only ran twice, Im pretty sure i could of gotton better especially if I would of warmed up my tires.... I was slipping way too much off the line even going to quarter throttle i slipped a lot and managed to get a 13.9. Im expecting mid 13's with mods in my sig. Nextime my 60's should be down resulting in better et's ;)

EDIT- 60'- 2.1
1/4 - 13.9

What did you trap...I'm guessing 100-101mph. That would put you around 13.6-7

My trap was low (98), You have to factor in how much of the track i covered at full throttle. I was letting of quite a bit off the line in order to regain traction which does (EDIT) KILL my ET's and kill my MPH. The last time i went to the track with my Stock tires i couldnt get better than 96 mph traps but i was hitting 14.2's. Traction is a bitch and if I can cover more of the track at full throttle i will be able to get my mid 13 sec pass with that 101 MPH.
