1st time @ the track

91F & 70% humidity & 4100ft @ Norwalk Raceway Park

2002 SE auto, stock w/K&N panel air filter.

Out of 9 runs my best was #6:

R/T......0.447
60'.......2.190
330......6.257
1/8......9.583
MPH.....74.63
1000....12.44
1/4......14.862
MPH.....93.14


Most runs were ~15.1 @ ~91mph and a few ~14.9 @ ~92mph.

I think I did OK for the first time and considering the conditions.
Was running against my buddy with a '99 V6 Camaro (intake/exhaust) and beating him by about a full second each time.
Most cars were 'stangs, 5.0L to Mach1, and they were awesome to watch. But it was fun being the only 4-door import there.

That's a pretty good 60' time.
Any plans for future mods?

Thanks!:attention:
Track must have been sticky enough to pull that off, or my Kumho ASX Ecsta are grippier than I thought.
I didn't haven any mods planned, but I was surprised by the times I got as stock. It might be time to get a proper intake and cat-back so I can hit mid-14s when the weather gets better.

Decent 60' for street tires. With cooler weather you'd be a bit faster yet.

According to the guy's meter-thing.
Though I'd like to be certain myself.

where i run at bristol dragway the elevation is 1750 and the track has a 1 degree incline, also the da is usually between 3500 and 4000 feet which pretty much makes good times impossible. great times with your car tho, with a da around 3800 my stock 04 went 14.92@93.3 and 14.3@100 with 50 shot dry.
