Oh Lord. Atco or Etown? Those are two of the quickest tracks in the country. She should be able to get at least a 14.0 in the fall at Atco.

All of the resident Honda people in our club say there is no way shes breaking 14.0. I need advice on how to prove them wrong.

My advice is to show them this video of my run LOL. I have a 2005 G35 coupe 6-spd that I got about a month and a half ago. I took it to the track only 2 weeks after I got it and ran 14.05 @ 102.3mph 100% bone stock, including a ridiculously dirty factory air filter lol (I found out when I installed an intake a few weeks later lol). Here are my times and video of my run. I have since installed an intake, but these runs were all 100% stock on street tires without lowering pressure etc. Car was very consistent for me. The car trapped 101.7-101.9mph on a few more passes the next two weeks after those runs as well, so that 102mph trap wasn't a fluke.
