not bad times, you are within 3 or 4 car lengths behind my hhr with those times. Post up some videos on your next run if you can.
thanks!
the car won't do good 60' no matter who you put behind the wheel. As explained before there is a delay valve which doesnt really allow all the torque to go to the wheels upon launch, plus the car already doesnt have much torque so it has a hard time pushing 3000+lbs off the line. with some tuning, i can see it cutting 1.9s but stock, 2.1 to 2.0 is pretty much all she's got.
I have cut 1.7s and 1.8s on street tires multiple times with other cars.
My next run video is exactly the same as the video you have seen at the original post. I can upload them and post them up later tonight.
