Default First REAL time to the track.

I just ran my first real time at the track. I ran last year with a bad transmission and got a 13.67@103 mph
over the winter I replaced the transmission with a stage 2 performabuilt auto with a 3000 stall converter.

the car is a 2002 Camaro with 2.73 gears. only mod is a MTI air lid.

I ran a 13.26 @102.97 with a 1.97 60'

I think the car has a little more in it because I couldnt stall it up all the way without slipping a little off the line.

I won a Trophy for taking 2nd on the street eliminator class. not bad for my first time if I say so myself. all in all I was very happy and can wait to get some 3.73's and some Drag Radials on the car.

Vids will come soon.

yea thats next on the list. I cant believe they made F-bodies with these gears. im gonna jump to 3.73's very soon.

what are some good every day drag radials for the street? I got the snowflakes and cant find 275's in that size. im thinking 255's.

I got 245 kumho ecsta AST all seasons on there now.

Honestly, I would go 3.73's with a 3600 stall and set of decent tires. Those 3 mods will make a huge difference, and not kill the driveability
