GTA @ track

Best white one got was : 14.7 @ 92

GTA with wheel spin and third going in only when I let off slightly (streched TV cable) - 14.54 @ 93.75MPH

THe one time I did get traction pulled a 1.98 60ft.

Time for slicks, headers, afpr and a tune

Ya man thats my goal 13.9x's

Honestly think, Kickdown cable + slicks + AFPR + tune = LOW 14's HIGH 13's, then headers on top would be bonus.

There was a decent headwind at track too.

Re: GTA @ track

Why the afpr? With the correct injectors and a tune you dont need one.

Re: GTA @ track

My cars doing that too. But not all the time. I replaced the TV cable and it didn't change a thing. My buddy says I need to replace that valve in the tranny. It might be getting stuck after 20+ years of sludge and never being changed out.

Just something to keep in mind.

Also, what are your mods on the GTA? It says formula with 3.73s in your avatar, yet 3.45s and custom exhaust in your signature?
