quater mile time

dont know if it was just me but i ran at the track recently pulled 15.6 both times. i dont have my slips anymore. got tired of lookin at them so i tossed them. i have a aem cai and the greddy sp2 exhaust. im thinkin my plugs are ready to be changed. doubt that makes a huge difference. any suggestions. i did spin pretty good the first run. a little on the second and missed fourth but still ran a faster mph.

i understand what that is sayin, and this was my fist time at a track also. but someone on that post mentioned he should have his car looked at because of the slow time. i personally dont care about what i run in a straigt line. but it does worry me that something may be wrong. ill probably toss it up to inexperience and shitty driving. the car runs fine. maybe after several hundreds of dollars in mods this winter and on my next trip overseas ill try again.

A good 1/4 mile time is all in the launch. Get a 2.0sec or below 60' time and you're going to see a good 1/4 mile Elapsed Time.

You ran at spokane raceway park right? I have a red 05 6speed 25k miles. all stock. First time ever at the track i ran a 15.42 with a 2.48 60ft. Second time i ran a 15.04 at 2.41. and third a 15.13 2.37 60ft.
