Default Sts Track Time

Well made it to the track last nite As you can see i had a little traction problem plus it was missing just before 2-3 shift. but still good time. Time to replace plug wires. I have 53,000 on OEM wires. Should get into mid to low 14's with some traction and a tune up. I even left the 5th wheel hitch in for wieght on the rear. When it was stock my 60'=2.231
60'=2.579
1/8=9.781@78.30
1/4=14.777@99.75

That's a sweet mph! With a killer 60', you could pull a 13.5 with that mph.

I take it your truck's a 2wd?

With a 2.0 60' I bet 13's for sure.

Nice times man!!

Your MPH is good enough for 13s for sure man. Just get that 60' down into the 2.0 range and you're set. Figure out how to get traction and then build up some boost right off the line and watch those 60's drop like a rock!

You gained 14+ mph on 5psi! That's crazy!
