Took my STOCK gtp to the track today...

**Mikegotone'02** · 05-10-2009

If this is in the wrong section feel free to move, won't hurt my feelings.

As some know i took my stock gtp to the track today and ended up with a 14.4@98mph. It's just hptuned by yours truly. As many will argue on CGP it's not stock since it has a tune, i must say that i disagree very much

. The damn car is stock, period, U-bend, paper filter with 84,000miles on it, leaking intake gaskets, i mean you name it lol.

I really wish the car had better 60's but 98mph traps on a bone stock car was good enough for me so i called it quits before i got the full potential out of it, which could have been maybe 1 mph and a tenth or two more. Once my other gtp is ready it might make it out to the track one more time to see if i can't touch the 13's or break 100mph traps. I might need a "splash" of 100octane to jack up the timing but i only have to make up 1.5mph to break 100 so....

nice man. i cant wait to get my car to the track and see what i can squeeze out of it.

if i can squeak off a 12 without running the e85 im going to be ecstatic.

Damn good times man...bet if you put a new air filter in it you would run 13's

LOL

**Mikegotone'02** · 05-10-2009

It just needs a little help getting off the line for 13's, getting a new air filter would be 12's

thats good man! nice, thats good for a stock gtp, got her to hook up good im guessing

**JoshMcMadMac** · 05-10-2009

That is impressive. Where you running 93 octane? What were your 60' times? It sounds like some solid tuning on a good stock foundation cut at least half a second!

**Mikegotone'02** · 05-10-2009

60's where 2.2 all day long and i was running 93 octane.

Jesus...I bet if you had 2.0 60's you might have hit 13's...OMG...

**Mikegotone'02** · 05-10-2009

Maybe, i don't think the car has the power to knock out 2.0 60's lol. I gotta count on my 2nd half power to get me those 13's. I did go on my 17" huge mustang wheels, i bet i would have had better luck with stock wheels. Meh...

**blueguy** · 05-10-2009

Yeah...aren't those Mustang wheels really heavy though? I bet you'd run better with all of that extra rotating mass gone

**blowfishRus6** · 05-11-2009

rediculas man. AWESOME!!!

how much timing?? 0 knock?? what was the mph at the 1/8?? it deff seems like its getting down the back end of the track good.

Wow. So it sounds like with stock wheels and maybe squeaking out a 2.1 60' you could be very low 14's...almost an entire second off of the average stock time!

Well that's with a tune remember. I was under the impression a tune wasn't considered a mod but it is so i must stress that you guys know it had a tune or i'll be a liar. I never said it didn't have a tune though so i wasn't trying to hide anything. Besides that she's bone stock. Here's some pics of it, yea, aint very pretty. It sat for quite some time and just looks like **** now lol. You'll never believe it only has 84,000 miles on it i'll tell you that much.

Not enough power? My L36 pulls 2.09 60' times. What tires were you running? I had a set of Goodyear Eagle GSD-3's on when I ran. My GMPP Koni setup might have a little something to do with the launch too.

**Mikegotone'02** · 05-11-2009

You have a 3k stall and 3.29's. If i had that i could have knocked out 1.9 60's without a problem. With 2.93's and a ****ty stall there's no mechanical advantage so the car just goes instead of takes off like i want.

**Bio248** · 05-11-2009

the good thing about starting with a GT. cheap initial buy, good gears, higher stall, and higher compression.

i win.

Yeah, I totally forgot about the gearing. I didn't know about the converter though.
