What impressed me was I got my highest trap on my last pass of the night (look at time 9:59 it was the last run of the night for anyone). This was after 25+ passes in a 2 hour span.

If I was able to adapt to the not-so-great track conditions (a bit slippery) I think I could have gotten better times.

Best E/T

Best Trap

Best R/T


For reference purposes this was my previous PB at Capitol last year. I was full weight and bone stock with same tires and wheels. 1st time ever at a track yet I was still able to cut a better 60' then all my passes at mason dixon. I think my best 60' was a 2.21.

For example #28 vs #30. #28 wins by 9/100 seconds. Its a slim WIN, but its still a WIN.

I cant see the bottom of time slip #24 vs #30, but I assume it is a WIN for #30.

wish I had a tune then, but sounds like your going to be at a whole new level come spring time

I have your upgrades all planned out for you though. You need AFR heads, upgraded camshaft / springs, 3.73 or 4.11 gears for the rear, upgraded valve body, 2800-3200 stall speed converter, borla exhaust, and tune. Then you should be up there with us.

but my next round of upgrades is going to be all suspension, then i am going back to the go fast goodies.... but im considering a 100-150 shot instead...

I'll have to double check exact numbers. but if you do the list i mentioned earlier, I would guess that you would be right with us. You could have an 11 sec. vette for the next track day.
