Is my 1/8 mile time ideal ? I got a 01 auto z28 loaded with leather and all the power optionsand t-tops. Its got a slp lid and k&n filter with a mac-catback with a 3.23 rear. My best time in the car is a 8.50. And it was spark knocking so my cousin said we need to change the fuel filter and the spark plugs got 77k on them.
So my last race I was up against a 00 z28 with no power options, cloth seats and it was a hard top, he had a slp lid k&n filter, bellow, a catback unknown was very quiet and then he did tell me he had a set of 3.73's with a tune. He ran a 8.58 up to me 8.50. I dont have the little time slip in front of me with all the reaction time and 60 ft but I remember the e/t's. So I was wondering for what I have done with it being an auto car if i ran pretty good or it that a normal time for whats done. It was about 92 degrees that day kinda hot. thanks for any replys

Leather seats weigh more. Power to weight. More weight the slower it should be compared to another car with the same power level.

Thanks for all the replys. I have kumho asx's the stock size 245-50-16.
The reason I said I had leather is I was told that it weighs more then cloth.
Now the next thing is the full tune up so I can get rid of the spark knock and see is I can get the time just a little lower, and go on a cooler night. thanks again.
