That's a great N/A time! Especially with traction problems! Can't wait to see what time you can pull while on the juice
What suspention upgrades are you running? You doing anything on the track to keep the front from lift (rear from dropping) taking away from your traction? I know some guys that stuff "pucks" in their rear springs to prevent them from compressing only at the track. Don't know how safe that is but it definetely keeps the car level and the traction to the front wheels.
I'm hopefully going to run again in the next two weeks. Best I pulled was 15.3 the last time on completely bald tires and broken tranny/motor mounts. I've taken care of those since so I hope I'll be able to at least get high 14s (also going to remove my 150bs worth of stereo equpment from the trunk which I didn't do last time :p )
Can't wait to see your next times though.

This was at Pacific Raceways at near sea level in August heat.
I have only been through 2 tanks since I had it and have run about 16 times down the track and freeway runs on the way to the West Coast Meet. My best time at Medford was 15.3 @91 but that track was about 1500 higher.

Well... People make think its B.S. and say its me b/c I had made my username Just Some Guy at one point. But it is not me. My friend had met a guy that claims of a 12.8 all motor in Boca Raton, FL. I also heard this from a second party. Though it has not been confirmed I put it up there anyways, mainly so that it would give everyone hope.
As for the 94 Sedan, I think it could do a 15.8 on its better days, maybe even a 15.7. But average a 16.0
Hey guys sup, nice times everyone, just thought id throw my times in. I run bone ass stock in a 1991 coupe automatic, all the interior, jack tire the whole nine yards on just street tires, 215 60 15, and ive only gotten to run 1/8mile. I dont have one single modification i swear to god, id never dishonor the game. Especially when it comes to legends. But check this out, on a stock 1991 that i have my times are
Reaction=.7238
60foot=2.1784
330foot=6.4229
1/8mile time=9.8165
1/8mile mph=72.91
Can anyone tell me if this is not normal, or if this is good or bad, or what, ive heard both, some people told me excellent. but im not sure whats up? Some one tell me something. Thanks
oh and another thing, i bought a used tranny off of a 1993 legend still type one, and its automatic, and the gears are just beautiful, huge difference even though same still tho. and i know this, manually shifting, 1st is to 41, 2nd 72, 3rd 108, and my 4th gear after about a mile and a half or more, my car hit the little NS symbol at the bottom of the speedometer, so i figure 155+mph top speed? is this normal, i weigh 150lbs, stock everything in my car, i mean ive beaten, i mean crushed type 2 coupes before, i mean i put about a half a car length consistently on my friends, and he has the 6 speed, and other coupes like mine that ive raced ive put a car to a car and a half with ease, is mine just one of those lucky fast ones or something. i mean its very wierd.
