Default First Race Soon... What could I expect??

Hello,

As stated in the title, I will be running my car on a track for the first time soon, if the weather allows it. I would like to know what e.t. I could expect, given I do a decent job of driving. All of my mods are in my sig but here is the main stuff:

99 Trans Am A4
3400 2.1 Stall
P&P LS6 Heads
TR224-112
100 HP Wet Shot
Mac Mids-ORY-Gibson Cat Back
9" w/ 3.70s
BFG DRs
LCAs-Adj TA w/ Relo-Bilsteins-PHB
Strange CM Driveshaft

That's the main stuff. How fast COULD she be????

Thank you for looking

at what elevation?? and that also depends on how much your car likes the spray. I have just bolt-ons and a 100 wet shot and all motor i went 14.1 @ 103 which is kinda slow but on the spray i went 11.9 @ 113 and thats soon to change tomorrow. I also ran those times at 5000ft in the desert (albuquerque) with all parts still on the car(bumper supports, all seats, and a 12in sub w/ amp). You should be expecting mid 11's if it runs good and if your at a low elevation it will be much faster. i dunno about your trap speed though, i have 2.73 gears so i cant trap very high at all lol.

Aside from the nitrous, you're basically an auto version of my car except I run 26x10.5 ET streets and more gear. If you can hook up, no reason that car shouldn't be mid-11s on motor. Being an auto, that's a 10 second car no problem on the nitrous assuming you can hook well, but it's going to be tougher on drag radials than a bias-ply and a higher stall.

EDIT: just saw Nevada. What's your elevation? That's gonna play a big role.

Thanks guys. You are both right. I should have posted one of the main factors, I will be running at around 4500' elevation so it will be tough.
