I might make it Thurs. Gonna try to make a few passes at Bradenton to see what it'll do weather permitting. I've never officially had it on a 1/4 mile track, ever. I did do a GTech 1/4 mile run up in Tennessee a couple of weeks ago just fooling around. I didn't really launch hard, didn't spin the tires, just kinda of took off normal and ran it through the gears. Never really got into 5th and I think I may have let off in 4th just before the end of the 1/4 mile. ~13.8 @ 104mph 0-60 5.4 seconds according to the GTech. I should be able to let it all hang out on the track, but I'm still not planning on launching hard. Because of the gearing I think it'll be best to get into 2nd quickly. I want to do this before I have my extra ECU flashed by Dynacomp for comparison purposes. They claim it'll have 325hp when they're done with no engine mods. I've got a video camera aimed at the tach and speedo (if they'll let me use it). If it's not too late I'll drop by.
