Default LVD Track Times

2.0 60' and 13.464 1/4mi
2.1 60' and 13.5 1/4mi
2.0 60' and 13.77 1/4mi

I was under the understanding that your first run would probably be the worse but I progressivly got worse. Im not dissapointed though im relativly stock. the last run my oil went back in the pan and i burnt it out the tail pipes. the gauges went crazy 3/4 through and my first reaction was to let off the gas. may explain the good 60' time but poor 1/4 mile time. I had the back seats and everything in and the last run also had a passenger in the car. hopefully the new vig.3200 will improve the times.

Don't think so, I'm 32 you're younger than me I think I remember seeing you with your lady friend in the NBM z28 vert. Didn't get around to talking to everybody including you. I should have asked about your setup/experience etc., that was my first time drag racing. My mods are in my signature.

That's not bad. Try running at high altitude if you want to be dissapointed when you get your time slip.
