13.7 @ 103, give or take .2, if you're a competent driver.

First time at the track? If so, I'm saying 13.8-.9 on street tires.

I have been beating on cars since I was a kid and my first pass at the track was nearly 15 seconds I had never ran it with the cut out open and it was so f@$king loud inside the car that I thought it wasn't shifting and I was overrevving it so I got right out of it (stock shortblock) and pretty much coasted through the trap. If the op can get low 13s on street tires I need him to teach me something. I was running mid 13s on street tires with the mods in sig, these things don't hook up for **** without suspension and sticky tires.

I pulled a 15 second 1/4 mile my first time too. My clutch was shot and when it did finally work the tires spun forever. I trapped just under 100mph though.

Mid 13's with a cam? I've seen cars get to that with bolt-ons.

If you can't put you power to the ground, of course you won't be getting the best times. I ran a best of 13.9 @ 102.xx with bolt ones, gears, and a tune compared to a 14.8 the first year - bone stock. What was left of my street tires were between the starting line and the 60' mark. Chirping second didnt really help either.

As for the OP, I'm going to say low to mid 14s. The Internet and your driving skills are two different things. It's your first time at the track, just take it easy and have fun. You might peek into the 13s!

I believe stock gears with an m6 are 3.42s, or are 93s different? Do yourself a favor down the road and put a set of longtubes on it.
Don't worry to much about track times, just concentrate on perfecting your driving skills with the m6.
