New Personal Best - 14.1

6Stang99 · Posted: Fri Apr 09, 2010 10:27 pm Post subject: New Personal Best - 14.1

I finally hit the time I've been trying so hard to achieve. I got my 14.1. When I launched my radio came flying out of the middle console and one of my air vents unclipped and flew past my head. Was pretty fun. First time I ever had a nice launch like that, and man is it addicting.

14.15 @ 93.89

I still find it funny that all of my fastest times come with my slowest mph. I usually trap 94-96mph, but all of my new personal bests come with 92 or 93mph.

Anyway, my tranny is definately not gonna last too much longer imo. I could be wrong, but I had two bad runs where it just would not go in gear. Oh well, I'm gonna run it until it breaks and replace it with a stronger tranny.

Congrats on the new personal best!! That launch was nice and i still think the first pass if you didnt have trouble going into 3rd you would have had the 14 flat or even high 13. Anyway you were running alot better than some of the stock 05+ Gt's out there.

Thanks man! I was shocked how poorly some of those cars were running. I was watching multiple Non PI GT's run high 14's all the way up to high 15's. I was like wtf!? lol.

You gonna put the DR's back on for the next time?

The longer your car has to accelorate down the 1/4 mile the faster your mile an hour will be. The quicker you get to the end your mile an hour will be slower in comparison. So when you spin or short shift your mile an hour will be faster. If you stage shallow your et will be quicker becouse you will have a rolling start when you trip the beams.
