350 TPI Stock 1/4mile runs ?

I have an 88' GTA with a 350 TPI and nothing done to it at all..completely stock...I have heard many stories on what it would run out of the box...

but I want to hear from people that have actually ran they're stock 3rd gen with this engine and W-S6 suspension.

So help me out....how did yours run ? What times should I expect next weekend when I take it out ?

Should run at least low 15s in the low 90s mph. A few tricks like air in front tires, getting traction, etc. should net you some high 14s...and mid 14s in some cases if the car is in good tune. The GTA cars are heavier than the other models.

look at your RPO codes for G92 to see what gears you have..that will dictate weather your a 14.8 or 14.4

i do agree that the GTA's are the heavyweights, however, ive ran a 14.1 with my lightly modded LB9 G92...

As far as I'm aware, I've never heard of a G92 GTA unless it is a 91 or 92 model.

Wouldn't the LB9 G92 be a 5-speed?? The 5 speed 305 formula model cars make the best times when driven correctly to my knowledge.

my first time to the track i netted a 14.3 bone stock, only mod was the cutout actually. after the cat. these cars are capable of way better than mid 14's stock with proper tuning and maintenance.
