I forgot to turn it off my first two runs. I think withs lots more practice the car is capable of much better times. I think I'll stick to autocross. Had a great time though.
Yeah, the couple of times I took the ST to the track I was using the "Over Rev" feature... however apparently I should have been shifting at a lower RPM... will have to try that out in the Spring!
My best ET was a pair of 14.05's. I made 5 passes today and 4 of the 5 passes were 102.xx MPH with the best trap being 102.51. My slowest trap of the day was 101.77. While I was really hoping for a 13 second pass, and am disappointed I didn't get there, I am encouraged by the trap speeds. Every time I got the car outta the hole cleanly, the car would wheel hop and spin its ass off on the 1-2 shift. Easily the most frustrating and difficult car to drag race that I have personally ever experienced. Still had fun though...

I'm really impressed with the consistancy of your 60's sixspeed. I tend to only hit 2.2 on just a couple runs of the day everytime I've gone. What rpm are you leaving at?
Hell, I'm impressed with your ability to run well into the 13's at 103+ mph on the factory tires! Your car must fly!!! I tried my damndest to get into 13's yesterday. It's freaking hard!!! I was launching right at 2000 rpm, feathering the throttle. I could get the car to come outta the hole ok, but as soon as I applied full throttle, i would lose traction, and that would persist through the 1-2 upshift, and she would spin/wheel hop more than half way through second gear. In retrospect, I probably should've short shifted into second gear in an effort to mitigate that issue. Will have to try that next time.
Thanks, the tune and exhaust combined pretty well and the mount makes it easier to drive it harder. I was leaving at 3, I may have to try leaving lower.
