Uhm, why don't we just post a few time slips and maybe clear up some of the confusion?

LIZARD BOY: First of all, at what altitude? If you do the adjusting, mine would equate to approximately a 14.5..with an automatic...so not too bad afterall wise guy. Maybe you shouldn't mouth off so much!

Yeah I'm with Rev, how bout that timeslip photo. Not saying you're lying but 13.6 in a "stock" GT?! That ain't so far from a C5. And given, there are mutant cars out there, but you gotta admit....

Ok guys, I will borrow a digital Cam and get you a picture of the time slip.

Without a doubt,... my best proof though are my friends that have seen it... including Try ME (member).

My car is running consitently 13.70-13.72 ... it hit 13.698.

Altitude... in Ottawa, Ontario. I don't know what the altitude is. Certainly not sea side (1500 miles away from Atlantic).

Thumbs up

Know that is a good question yet EZRIDN.

The trick is in the launch and second gear shift.

Launch from almost nothing 1500-2000rpm... and prevent tire slip,

Then when shifiting into second (at 5500rpm - not redline), slide the clutch so you don't get a tire slipage. If you power shift, you will get too much wheel spin... that'll put you out .05 to .1.

When you line up... make sure your getting a shallow launch... (give your self more track to work with.

With stock tires, i find that massive burnouts don't do much... Just make sure your tires are clean... wheel spin for abour 3-5 seconds, after going through the water.

Keep looking at your target when you launch... keep your car as straight as possible to the line.

Mr. Lee, I think built automatics are only faster in really quick, powerful cars. An auto tranny has to turn an oil pump to produce line pressure that makes the thing work. I use a C-4 with a B&M shift kit and a TCI 2500 stall torque converter. This works well for me and is very consistent. The C-4 does cast me probably 20-25 h.p. though. That's OK, I like it anyway. 4 and 5 speeds with the same set up would be faster, but only with a good driver.

I hear that.! A friend of mine has a '99 GT and I ran a 13.53 @ 104.28 mph with it. It has a k&n, air silencer removed, flowmasters, and 275/40/17 drag radials. We took this car out on the street marked off the 1/4 and blew through the traps spraying a 150 shot at about 125mph this should be good for a low 12 sec ET. These motors respond really well to power adders.

Ahh, 125mph is not good for low 12's. Try low 11's maybe 10's. I can't see a 99 GT with 150 shot pulling 125mph in the 1320. Sounds like the 1320 you marked was more like 1800-2000 feet.

Then again maybe I'm wrong!

21 mph from 150 shot. Damn, I want that shot. My car runs in the 13.8 range without the spray and 12.3 @ 110 with it. I forgot my mph N/A, but I know I am only gaining about 8 mph with the 150 shot. Let me know how he does it.

Come back to us when you get real numbers! He did not gain 21MPH on a 150shot.

thanks rev. that sounds like a good setup you've got there. i'm hoping for an auto (never thought i'd say that!)myself. i've driven nothing but standards since i was 12 yrs. old. (don't tell the po po )i guess in my old age, i'm ready for an auto, but only one with gahones enough to please. that's where the 5.0 comes in.
