Default What will it run

My in law thinks my car wont get out of the 15s if i take it to the track. He say's i'll be lucky to get in the high 14s. I have never had my car at the track but i know with me in it, on the scale weighs 3320. It has minor weight reduction down. The mods are in my sig i know there nothing great but the motor has been rebuilt and only has 72k miles on it. What times would you think

there would be something wrong with your car if your in the 15s.. they are faster than that from the factory.. with the weight you have taken out.. id say high 13 low 14.. granted you can drive..

I would guess low to mid 14s depending on your driving.

If your a really good driver then maybe you can break into the 13s.

you really need some headers and an intake and that thing will wake up.

That aint to the wheels. Dont be dissapointed though, dyno numbers mean nothing. Its all about track times.

Remember horsepower sales cars and TORQUE wins races.

I was in 4th he launched befor i did but when igot up to about 100 i went by him easy probably had 2 cars or so on him for i hit the break still pulling away.
