Trip to track very disappointed (vids)

**Uno99** · 06-12-2009

I am so disappointed in my car. Consistant 2.2 60' times which I expented on street tires but my S1X cam'd 3.2 setup GTP that ran a 13.90@103 last year before headers & a FWI install ran a 14.05@101mph, 14.23@99mph, & 14.23@98mph after the install. we did not do alot of tuning yet but geez i though it would be better. My tune needs to be addressed ASAP!!!!!!!!! My 1-2 shift is probably 500rpm too low, my 2-3 shift, shifts just before the traps.

There was alot of really sweet rides and the Test N Tune at our local track. 2 of my 3 terrible runs are below. Go ahead and laugh @ the slowest cam'd 3.2 full exhaust GTP ever.

needs a tune dude

Yup...hey I ran mid 14's on a hot day with no KR and a 3.2" XP setup with headers

Buuuuuuuuuuuuut...that was a 2.4 60' lol

Don't let it beat you up. If you still have stock wheels throw those back on to get rid of all of that extra rotating mass those Bullitt's give ya...go out on a cooler day and tune tune tune...

thx dudes. I have snow tires on the stock rims now I wonder how those would hook. LOL

Yeah that's what I keep hearing about gettin a tune. My 3.4 setup gtp ran a 14.1 at 97mph. But that was with 80* weather and street tires. Seems like guys who go further amd put headers and smaller pulleys and stuff need tunes more then anyone. I'm hopin to get one soon

Usually your traps would be higher with a cam'd car and a slower 60ft, so something is definitely holding you back, not just the launch. I've seen 12 second cars run 15's 5 runs and then have a 12sec pass then go back to 15's, tune can have a large impact on a car.

That second video was pretty good... lol
