Default 13.6 gsr not much mods read and post relys

ok my friend went to the drag strip last sat. ran some mid 14's a 14.2 then a 13.6. but the thing with the 13.6 is it says he ran like a 1.6 60 ft on street tires. i don't believe it and neither does anybody else but he has the slip. he doesn't believe me there could have been some thing wrong with the timing lights. here is what he has done skunk 2 im, aem type r cai, act xtss clutch, act 8.5 lbs. flywheel, carsound cat, tanabe srm exhaust. and some dunlop sp sport 905 tires. dc 4-1 header and 65mm tb
also his car is extremely low could that effect th timing lights he has koni yellows with h&r race. please somebody shed some light on this freak occurence. and he says he doesn't need to run again cause he already ran it so he won't try and back it up.

I never count any time unless I can do it again to back it up. It's very possible it was a malfunction. I've not heard of a GSR with those mods on street tires anywhere being able to bust out a 60 foot time like that. My guess is a timing light glitch.

i dont know how things at your track work but it could be possibly the dumbass gave u guys the wrong slip, or mixed 'em up. mixed up car #'s too.

Does the trap speed on the other tickets agree with one another? anything is possible. I don't think he can justify saying he has a 13 second car if he can only do it once. If it were me. I would try again.

tell him you'll pay for his runs if he hits that again so he can try to back it up. But you never know untill he tries again.

is it possible that your buddy was moving before the timing was started...? i've seen examples of folks having rims that dont break the lasers until they are already creeping out of the blocks............ if that did occur he probably had a poor reaction time with that killer 60 foot......... just a thought
