1/4 mile track times

stacia171 · 03-22-2002, 11:42 PM

has anyone run a stock 2000 or above gt at the track and what did it run???I have slightly modified 2002 gt and ran but never ran it stock and want to do comparisons to see if the money spent on mods was worth it? and if the gain was respectable

2002 gt with mods below:
mac off road h-pipe with 2 high flow cats welded in
2-1/2" exhaust with flowmasters
diablo sport chip
c and l 85 mm mass air meter kit for 2002 stangs
70mm ford motorsports throttle body

best run with the above

rt- .666
60' - 2.068
330- 50953
1/8- 9.082
mph- 78.82
1000- 11.791
1/4- 14.084
mph- 97.80

Most 99+ GT's run low-mid 14's stock, with a few factory freaks runing in the high 13's(Lizard King ran 13.60's bone stock)

Judging by you 60' I say your spinin em. Work out that launch and you should see 13's

Is your car stick or auto? If you have an auto that's about where you should be. MM&FF got a brand new '01 GT w/ 5-speed to run 13.73 @101 with only around 700 miles on the car.

my car is an automatic

91LX2Bfast · 03-25-2002, 07:19 PM

Thats about right for an auto. I think you could be in the 13's if you went with a better chip like the one from www.customchip.com.
Your 60ft time is really good for street tires, and by your mph, your 1/4 time is right on with what your car is capable of.

stanger8172 · 03-25-2002, 10:16 PM

yeah, that is a good timeslip for your car!

did you drop your tire pressure for such a good 60'?

Blue01GT · 03-26-2002, 02:58 AM

I have a 2001 GT 5spd and i raced it at the LACR (2900ft elevation, full tank gas and bone stock) and i got a best 14.56... when i got that 14.56, i beat a mercury cougar with a 351Windsor in it. right after that i smoked a 1970 Mustang Mach1!!!

At the LACR they say to take your ET and times it by .9679 cause of elevation, and that means its a 14.09. and a 14.09 at sea level is about normal i think.... be sure to deflate your tires to about 20psi.

I just now added a STeeda Timing Adjuster, STeeda UD pulleys, and 3.73 gears. im going to the track this wednesday to find out what new ET i get!

As far as your mods go, they are good but if you got a timing adjuster and UD pulleys i bet youll really fly! im tallkin 13s!

stacia171 · 03-26-2002, 04:54 AM

no i didnt drop my tire pressure at all, i actually didnt think about it, as for a timing adjuster how does it work???

SLOW 97 · 03-26-2002, 09:46 AM

Yeah Blue01GT those ET's seem exceptionally slow. But it's probably the full tank of gas and the elevation. When do you shift? Stacia171, your ET is fine though. Don't worry, it shouldn't be hard to break into the 13's. Your 60 ft. is great for street tires. Get some 4.10's and a Precision Industries Stallion torque converter and you'll see low, low 13's maybe high twelves. Gears and a high stall converter are what auto cars really need to be quick.

stanger8172 · 03-26-2002, 02:33 PM

stacia171,

Just try dropping your tire pressure to 20psi you might drop that one tenth you need.

Blue01GT,

Have fun on Wednesday! You should be stylin' and profilin' with a 13 sec. car now!

03-26-2002, 03:23 PM

i pulled a 14.2 with a 1.9 60' on my stock auto with street tires at 32 psi. The track I go to is always sprayed before time trials and temp was about 45 degrees.

Lizard King · 03-26-2002, 10:24 PM

Stacia... for an Automatic you are right where you should be (normally)... One question. Did you take your passenger headlight out? Or do you have a MAC intake system. If you don't have one yet... don't get one. Take the head light out and you get .2 better times on the quarter.

Your 1/8 of mile time seems a bit low...

no i have a canl mass air meter kit
