Default First time at the track with the gto

Well,i made the trip to mmp. It rained almost all the way there, but none at the track. We get there and a cloud is close to the track and showing signs of rain. So i rush up(no cool down period after 1.5 hr drive) there to make a pass... 13.5@105.. i circle back around to make an other pass... 13.3@106.. damn if it didn't start to rain then. Sucks, but oh well. Da was 817.. The car didn't spin or chirp launching at all. So i will go back again and trying launching higher.

Truly 100% stock, no sticky tires, stock tune and no weight reduction.

I'm sure the air quality was real shitty with all the moisture in the air. Montgomery is awesome if you wanna go fast...always a low DA there. 817 is high for that place lol

Yeah, it wasn't an optimal time to go bama, but still wanted to see what she would do. Will be going back asap on a nice sunny day.
