Drove to the track. Left on a flat bed. Ok im done. I went to the track to make a few passes and see if we could make some adjusments with lt1 edit. I only got to make 1 run befor my computer **** the bed. I ran a 13.68 at 104 mph. With a 60' of 2.1. 
People were saying thats not bad for a stock TA. I did not tell anyone how much money i have invested in it. Im so tired of going to the track and looking like an *** 
. My car is off the road now for the summer and im getting DFI AND NOS THIS WINTER. Then driving straingt to buffalo to get a dyno tune. GAMES ARE OVER ...Thanks for listening to me vent.

Re: Drove to the track. Left on a flat bed. Sorry to hear about your problems. But get that thing tuned you should be way faster than that. Get it professionally tuned and she just might suprise you.

Re: Drove to the track. Left on a flat bed. Hmm.... they are right, thats not bad for a stock... what the hell?! 
Definately get it tuned before you go shooting nitrous through it. With just the blower and some tune I'm sure it will wake the hell up. Good luck.

Re: Drove to the track. Left on a flat bed. Man, you cant seem to get good luck for anything, lol. Its always this way though, it will never run as expected at first. Good luck trying to get it all sorted out and when the DFI comes, Im sure you will be tearing up the track.

Re: Drove to the track. Left on a flat bed. Good luck with everything.. I know how that can be. It seems like every time you get something fixed, something else breaks. Then, once it seems to be running good, you realize how much you need the PCM reprogrammed.
I'm running my car in a couple of weeks, and I really don't expect to run any lower than a 13 second E/T
... My car really needs a lot of work, still. Stick with it, don't give up. You just have to keep reminding yourself what your car can do once it's running at it's best level. You should be able to pop off some 11 sec E/Ts. Best of luck!!!

Re: Drove to the track. Left on a flat bed. Thanks for the support guys. The hole way home i was thinking about selling her. But after i got her home and calmed down i decide to finish what i started. I still cant belive the bad luck i have had this summer. I want revenge at the track. My goal is a low 11s or high 10s. Im going to push that little stock block and see what she can handle. Now i get to drive around in a little ford fiesta for the nest 6 months...
