Well I only managed a 14.4. On my first run which is lame lol. Wasn't even a great run but it just got worse the rest of night. Couldn't nail a good launch. Either got bogged down or wheel spinner right up to third lol. And my gearbox is really slowin me down. Synchros for third and fourth were crunching a bit so I has to shift HELL SLOW haha. Would giving it a bit of revs while clutch in make it shift smoother ?

Well I suppose time isn't too bad for stock motor/turbo. But I know I can get it down to 14.1 or 14.2 at least. 13's might be just out of reach

have to remember that they haven't prep the track for a few weeks now. getting of the line is going to be real hard

That's alright man, for a stocker. Seen a 32 down there before that kept getting mid 15s lol

Hoping to take mine down on the 27th.. if no rain that is. Should have it running alright again by then.
