Default what do you think

Hey Guys just wondering what you think my car will run. I am going to take it to the track here at Kearney NE in the next few weeks for the first time. I have raced before but that was with my LeMans. My car is a 00 TA m6. The mods are Lid, flowmaster muffler, Pacesetter lts with no cats Hotcam, sfc, lca, Hopefuuly my Drag Radials will be on by then. Just wondering what to expect. Thanks

mid 12s w/ good driving prolly, you have to understand that you may run a new best, but youll gain about .3 more when fall comes around, this weather is to hot and humid for our cars to run at there full potentional

do you have the stock rear/clutch?

Anybody have any tips for me to get the most out of her. I was thing about taking the back seat, spare and jack out. Any thing else I can do to lighten her up with out taking the car apart to badly. This is more of my cruiser car than my race car I use my LeMans for that. I would like to get the most out of her though. Thanks for any help.

remove sway bar

on DRs ive been launching at 4k SLIPPING the CLUTCH out and netting 1.8s consistant

dont Dump the clutch or youll snap the rear

heat the DRs up good start the tire pressure at 20 psi then go from there shift at 6k

on the 1-2 shift, shift at 5600 or so cause the stock tach in first gear at WOT is off
so when you shift there, the real rpms should be around 6k

good luck
Brandon
