Went to the Track.

Went to the Track.
Well, I guess i'm a little disappointed. I did have a 12 second mustang GT before, so I'm not used to running so slow.
I managed a best of 16.6 @ 82.56. Keep in mind, this is a purely stock truck, down to the filter. The DA' was over 1700ft because of humidity, so i'm sure I had a least another tenth in that time. I tried with the tailgate down and actually ran slower for some reason, I don't know why.
Had a 2.4 60' as well. I swear, I had to leave on the first amber coming down to get a decent reaction time too, lol. The truck is sooo slow. My friends had a good laugh anyway. Unfortunately, the track shut down early due to rain.
Here is my fastest timeslip numbers:
R/T: .134 (zzZZZzZ)
60': 2.415
330': 6.929
1/8: 10.646
MPH: 65.98
1000': 13.855
1/4: 16.606
MPH: 82.58
Looks like i'll stick to offroading. At least I got some base numbers set now. I can only go faster right?

Agreed. Theres pleanty of room for inprovement. Sure, you had a 12 second car.. You started with a 13-14second car out of the box.. you made up 2 seconds on an ' already fast ' vehical. Imagine the accomplishment of getting your truck into the 14's.? 2.5-3 second gains and having less to build on to begin with.

Have you had time to get the Hood QuickLIFTS on?
