okay i took my two ladies to the track today ....my wife and victoria... my car....anyway i had two runs but i dont know how to feel ... my first run was vs a modded very well tunned talon tsi boosting 10 psi ..... i took him by maybe half a car...WTF.... then i raced a modded 2002 trans am and he beat me by a car

... maybe not even that.... after all this work i've put in, (1) is this what i should expect or should i be expecting more.... i finally got good launch on drag radials at about 4k rpms so im good on that now...(2) but seriously is this a bad thing???? (3) if i get headers (i know i know i SHOULD already have them) would i catch that TA???

What was your 1/4 time? That's the real question.

I'd be happy with those results. Did you feel that the race with the TA was run pretty well and he just beat your car and not your driving?

well i can shift pretty well in my opinion as a matter a fact a got it on tape if i can figure out how to post it i will ....i think his car just out powered mine...how much horse power do those come with .......the times werent up so i dont know he said he ran a 15 flat though....so that might give you an idea
