Default Raced at the track for the first time....

Well it was like 3 weeks ago now, should go again this friday.

Ran a best of 14.5 with a awfull 2.45 60'. Best mph was 98.1 Mostly my bad launching is to blame for the 60' obviously but it was also the first day the track opened this year. I was nervous as it was my first time so I pretty much was spinning through 1st and 2nd every run.

Car is a 91 notch 5spd. Only performance mods are h-pipe and pullies, and cold air intake which really adds no hp whatsoever. Have 3.73's waiting to be put in. Ran on street tires obviously.

Anyways, I was wondering if the car was capable of a 13.9? Maybe in the right conditions with a damn good launch? Its capable of at least a 14.1 or so with a 2.0 60'. But I was just wondering if you guys think a high high 13 could be squeezed out of it in with its current mods.

I was trying to hold it around 1500rpms and feather the clutch and gas, but just kept spinning. Next time I'll launch off idle since that seems to work better on the street anyways.
