Default Ran the beast at the track yesterday

Just wanted to share my success at IMSTER @ MIR in Maryland. Ran my car at stock boost 9psi and I am also running stock exhaust. Ran on it on street tires/volks. First couple of runs I was getting used to my clutch which I really had never practiced launching since I've gotten it. Kept hitting 13.0-13.2 for the first few runs at the track. Finally my last run I ran a 12.69 @ 110mph. Honestly I think I could have done better but still a great time. Btw, my car is a roadster so it does weigh a bit more.

PS: Car is going in shop this week for E-manage ultimate , tuning, major boost increase, and custom 3" single exhaust.

Very nice times. Stock exhaust street tires. Add an exhaust and some slicks... Very nice and promising.

Your last run the e.t. is decent, but whats up with your trap speed? Seems kinda low imo....any dyno numbers? Good improvement in times though.

Nice time with the stock boost and stock exhaust. I ran 12.8 with stock exhaust and 7.5 boost. I think I can match your time if I go back and get some more practice . Can't wait til you up your boost. Good Job.

I tried to edit but I was too late. I didnt catch the fact that it was stock exhaust 1st time I read it, that explains the trap. Nice job. Any dyno number?

That almost sounds like me. I kept running 12.9x@114mph, then hit 12.72@115 on my last run. Stock APS TT with stock exhaust (G35).

Your trap speeds are fine for your setup...nice nice times, BTW. With some 18's drag radials, diff, and some more practice, I would expect low 12's on your stock boost settings.

I am heading to the track on Friday....with a track setup....and 600whp+....should be interesting.
