Default what times?

What times could you expect out of a stock 94 Firebird formula, that runs like new... it was babied....

Things you could count as mods are TB bypass, Intake, and no muffler...

The track around here has a Elevation of 850'.....

My rear end gears are 2.73's and its an A4 automatic.... Stock weight....


As for as the driver mod :eye: Ive been driving manual for the last couple years, but I do know for the automatic that you just stall it up to 1400 or w/e it is for a stock converter and then slam the gas and let the car shift..... My car shifts perfect.....

I got a 13.7 with what you have minus the TB bypass. I didn't stall it up because I would spin, but dead hooked just punching it. So if you can get no slippage, maybe you can get around 13.7. Then again, a 13.7 with basically intake only isn't that common.

EDIT: the elevation of Fairfax is 447..... if that is actually where the track is, but that may have sumn to do with it....
