Default Got my 1/4 mile Track Times!

Just got back from Marion, SD at Thunder Valley Dragway and got my First timeslips! This was my first time at a real dragstrip and it was a blast and I came out better than I thought I would. Participated in a streetcar shootout and placed 5th out of 30 cars! I'm too lazy to take pics of the slips so I'm just gonna post a few of the times.
And I should mention that the car is bone stock with just 3:73's.

A few bolt-ons and get the 60' down, you'll be running 12' s before you know it.

Thats the plan! I want to get it in the low 12's and keep it plenty streetable cause I drive it a lot.
LE2's and a cam (not sure what yet) are on the list for now, got some dynatech longtubes on the way at the moment.

You should try and get to a dyno for a baseline before mods.
