Good runs. One word of advice from someone who's been racing cars since '86:
When you tell people how fast your car is, ALWAYS preface it with: "In this weather, my car runs a ______." Then your ETs will hold a little more validity.

good luck... not in normal track conditions. I don't want to sound mean, but to get a 14 second run, you're going to have to get boosted. You might MIGHT barely get in the 14's if you get TOG headers, a PNP, CAI, high flow cat, catback, ported TB, a pulley, and a chip.

I have the Catback, High flow cat, pullies, and Ported TB. Waiting on a CAI now and might be getting TOG next year. Still thinking about the chip, but what is a PNP? I never heard that term before :unsure:

Yea, I always thought that 0.500 was perfect. But I could be wrong.
Daytona?

Atco has changed there perfect reaction time to .000 now. Some tracks are starting to do the same

^ figures, my 5.0 stang runs a 13 flat with a 200 shot , heheh, .... but back on topic, my alero runs a high 14 with cai and a 55 shot of Zex, so 14's is easily attainable with nothing more than NAWZ

Reaction times:
Standard Compulink System: .500 = perfect (.400 pro tree)
New Digital LED Systems: .000 = perfect (Pro & Sportsman trees)
NOTE: Some tracks have installed the new LED lights but kept the perfect lights at .500/.400, it all depends on the tracks preferences since the programming can be adjusted. Raceway Park did the reverse for a few races last year and kept their old tree but made .000 the perfect light. That experiment didn't last too long.
The new NHRA standard is for the LED system and .000 reaction times.
