Default Track times = Depression

Finally went to track today. All my friends that have rode in my truck thought
it would run mid 14's. I was thinking more like 15.2.

R/T ... .405 ----- Must have been dreaming
60' ... 2.341 ---- Where's the stall
330 ... 6.517 ---- Where's the cam
1/8 ... 9.977 ---- Feeling bad
MPH ... 71.24
1000 ... 12.956
1/4 ... 15.521 ---- Depression sets in.
MPH ... 87.31

00 Z71 Cat-back 160 therm K&N drop in filter HPTuner
Over 3/4 Tank of gas..No weight reduction.
I got beat by everyone but the track sweeper.
Need some get well soon cards..

The important thing here is that you have established a baseline. Onward and Upward!

If you want to run in the 13s just find a 6.0 longblock and mild cam & LTs.

What are your mods again?

If that's stock then you're doing good. LOL

I feel your pain. I made my first trip to the track this weekend with expectations that weren't there.

All it takes is money to fix things Then record high fuel prices to feed it afterwards! What are you waiting on?
