I sucked I had bad wheel hop issues I only did 3 runs my best of the day was 13.4@110mph with a 2.5sec 60'. Typically I am high 12s with 2-2.2sec 60'. It was my first time at the track with the Falken tires. Dustin ran a 12.76 @113mph. A blue Stillen stage II roadster was running 14.7 and JuJube (travis) with his Greddy TT 350z ran a low 13 (maybe 13.2-13.3?). I am not sure what Andrews best time was.

My best time all day was 15.3 @ 91mph with a 2.3 second 60' time... That is a 100% stock engine in full street trim with just under a 1/2 tank of gas, so I was running pretty heavy. I was hooking up pretty good and probably could have gotten my 60' down with more practice but I only got 3 runs in all day and I missed 2nd gear on the last run... Also my first time ever running the car.

So basically, I don't think a stock G could break into 14s up here. Sasha said the best he could run with his car was a 15.1 (350z) so it's a much lighter car. I suspect with an exhaust/intake and tune it could break 15s.

High altitude kills our track times as well.

Andrew did you get any pictures of the drag snowmobiles? That would cool and I bet not alot of guys on here have seen 10sec snowmobiles that run on pavement!
