Friday I went out to my local drag strip for the first time as a driver. Wanted to get some numbers before I did any work to the GTP. Drag strip is 1/8 mile, weather was about 75-80 with low humidity.
I averaged about a 9.9 sec 1/8 mile at around 71 mph. slower runs were with a passenger. Mind you I had subs, spare, and all that good stuff in the trunk the whole time as well. Is this about normal for this car?
I DID beat an S10 with a V8 swap and drag radials which I was pretty proud of. Other races I lost to a modded GTP, new STI, and Camaro. Slips follow.
