looks normal. that was pretty much what i ran the 1st time i went to the track with my DB8 GSR (which i dont hve anymore). I had intake/header/exhaust/chip.

Smoked people that ran 14s at the track on the streets! I knew it was capable of 14s! For example, I have a video of myself smoking my friend and his Prelude over and over; even when I let him take off first. He ran a 14.7 at the track..

 

sounds right for the temp and such...... Last time i drove down to the sac raceway, i got there too late so i couldnt run! drove an hour and half to watch mustangs and civic dx's pull 16 and 17 sec qtr mile times! gay!!! Anyways....lower the compression in your tires, take out your whole system/spare/back seats/and what ever you can to make your car lighter. Unbolt your muffler if you can since your running stock!

 

yeah, lower ur tire pressure to like 25psi.....

remove ur spare/jack..........

make sure u have a 1/4 tank.....err less

 

thanks guys i did lower my tp to 30 psi and checked it after every run
next time ill take out my sub and amp
im cool with stripping my car cuz i wanna run it like i would on the streets
but any other tips
and thoughts on the times?!?!

 

Well when I went to the strip in Memphis a couple months ago, it was probably in the mid 60's (at night). It was my first time on a drag strip in almost 2 years, and my first time w/ my GS-R, here's what I got on my best run, 94 GS-R w/ about 110K miles at the time:

60' - 2.342
660' - 9.707 @ 73.41
1320' - 15.010 @ 92.71

I had about 25psi in my front tires, and had my rear shocks cranked to full stiff. I also had my spare tire and rear seat removed. I would say just practice, maybe try to go when it's not as hot outside (at night maybe).
