Run less fuel and put some tires on it, you will be running high 12's for sure. Nice car btw!

tires were definitely not the issue..dead hooked 1st and the 1-2 still needs to be tuned to shift harder and the 2-3 was chirpin...thinkin it was only the fuel :/

During your 4th pass you said:

Fourth Pass
13.150 @ 105.9...1.982 60' in Sport Drive Mode (Manual shift to hold 3rd)

What so you mean by"manual shift to hold 3rd?"

You didnt stop the shifting at 3rd and run thru 106MPH??

Nice.. Those cars are one of the fastest sleepers around now. I expected them to be speedy, but that's just obnoxious. I wish Pontiac didn't go under. I have always liked their cars over the GMs.

nice times!

My buddy just picked up a stock gt and i'm gonna tune it and throw a catback on it. If we can run 12.90s he will think its a racecar. I better do something to my DD SS, don't want him outrunning me. haha

Pontiac is a subset of GM. Like Lincoln under Ford. Or, perhaps a better example would be Mercury is/was under Ford or Jeep is under Chrysler
