1/4 Times

GT 849 · September 17th, 2006, 11:41 PM

Hey guys new to the site

I know you guys have probably heard this question a billion times. So sorry to ask it again. I have a 2000 GT completely stock with an auto trans. Well I went to the strip for the frst time and was running 15.2 on all the runs. Is this where the car should about run? Or is it driver holding it back.

Thanks I have another questions though what is the best way to launch the car i was just sitting at idle and slamming on the gas.Is there a better way to do it? Im a total noob to cars i've only driver trucks before till i got the mustang.

15.2 from what ive seen noo... ive heard stock GT's doing low 14's

what you need to do is find out what rpm the tires start to break loose while holding the brake. Then hold the rpms right below where it let loose and launch at it there. That and you are probrably spinning if you are just hitting the gas so i would say feather the gas also. you should be running 14.4's or so

I agree with white, In ym grand national with an automatic I hold the brakes and bring the rpms up before I launch but then again she gets down the quarter a little faster....flat 11s are
