I will, what time are u going? I need to see my stock time. I need to find out why it bogs from 0 when it is hot outside. My intake is stock right now minus the resonator because of a wiring clearence issue I have.

Guys, just a tip: keep the car off until you get to the burnout lane. My buddy shave .8 off his time by keeping his car off until he actually raced. His best time went from a 13.64 to a 12.8! Same track, and the 13.64 was in much cooler weather.

We're not 100% we're going yet until my dads finds out his schedule next week but I wanna go so bad to get base times. I'll let you know whats going on though and we could always meet up somewhere before and then cruise out there if you want. And the reason it bogs is well its a zetec, lol. Mine doesn't really get moving till 2000-2500 rpm. And when the A/C's on, its a complete dog. Also are you going to MM Aaron or is your car torn apart?

Cool guys.
Umm the plan was to meet up at the Shell gas station on 5110 Lamb, the one near North Las Vegas Pic-A-Part. Then we'd catch the I-15 from there and head out. We were gonna meet up around 7:30 - 8:00 p.m..
Also my cell # is: 460-0114 if you guys wanted to call/text me.

Kinda embarrased to post my time but my best was:
R/T ... .312 60' ... 2.666 330 ... 7.561 1/8 ... 11.637 MPH ... 60.55 1000 ... 15.118 ET ... 18.100 MPH ... 75.15
I ran 3 consistent runs in a row though. 18.2, 18.2, and 18.1. Reaction times were pretty consitent to .207, .292, .233, and .312. Reaction time my very first time was 1.464, lol. But I had fun for my first out there! Good seeing ya Chris, Robert and good meeting ya James!

They don't prep the track. I just don't go anymore. Running a 16.1 with a 50 shot of nitrous is just embarassing.

Yea I wasn't entirely happen with the way the track was run. First no one could properly stage. Soon as the second guy was on the line, they'd start the tree leaving no time to trans-brake, rev, whatever. Second they had the tree set up to where all three yellows came on at the same time so you couldn't anticipate anything. Third the website advertises MM being 9p.m. to 1a.m., so why'd they close the track at 12a.m.? Thats when it was finaly cooling off but nobody was able to run after that. Well that's my little rant. Was still fun for being my first time though, can't lie about that.

Steven, not bad for a car with nearly no mods to the engine at all. Just an intake and exhaust got me at 17.15, so I think you'll be really close to that once you start adding a few parts. All you have is a SVT airbox and a tune, right?

Yep just tune and SVT airbox. I think the 2100 ft above see level and being nearly 100*F out killed all our times though. Plus talking with Tom, it turns out my car was running a little lean . Probably shouldn't have been running that night. A/F at WOT was 13.5-13.8 and he says to never go above 13.2 with 12.8 being the lowest, but we'll start datalogging shortly.
