Sonoma Raceway 6/13

Taking my 05 sedan auto to the track today. Will post results later. Haven't ran it in a few years, not expecting a new best considering it's summer time but we'll see how the track hooks for me.

Was able to get 4 runs in. Conditions were poor, when I first got there the DA was over 2000ft. I tried to stall the car up and launch at 1800 rpm and it blew the tires off and I got a 2.9 60 foot time and ran a 15.7. So next run I decide to launch off idle and manually shift. I got a 2.2 60 and ran a 14.58 at 95.9, DA was around 1800 ft. Next run was the best run of the night, 2.2 60 foot, 14.53 at 96.35 (DA was 1600-1700ft). Last run I spun a bit, 2.25 60 foot time, 14.6 at 95 MPH. The 14.53 time is a new best ET for me, beating my previous best of 14.549 so i'm happy. In good air the car could run 14.2's. I also datalogged every run and the timing was very conservative, the stock tune is holding back the car a lot.

Tires make a tremendous difference. What are you currently using?

wow your times are better than what we get here in vegas(our track has some slow times and crappy DA)except for a few 9 sec gtrs, buick regal turbo/gnx and some really fast evos

I have made a few changes to my 05 sedan and have yet to run it again, best time of 15.3 @93 i think, and i have tuned it since then, i hope to have an aluminum drive shaft before the next time I run too
