well i can admit i have heard of a white 4 door that was quick. but the people that were telling me about it said they say it running at bradenton and it was in the 14's.

now keep in mind i am going only off what i have heard in my time at that track. i have been going to that track since about 03 with the satty. i have not made so many appearances out there in a while because i have been racing the bike. however i have 2 new things going on my saturn soon and i will bring it back out to play.

they were just some random people. i am cutting 2.2 and 2.1's on radials. cut 2.0's and even a 1.9 once on bf' g-force. i have wanted to try a set of slicks. ohh and last time out i was on stock saturn wheels and tires and ran a 14.2 at 99.6mph. i always am full interior too. traction sucks some monkey nutz.

i am guessing with your 103 mph and your 14.3-14.5 1/4 on street tires you are roasting the tire into 3rd.

yah i dont normally hook up till mid third but sometimes it will grip in high second just depends on the track conditions, but first gear is just all spin 2.5 is my average 60 ft. on street tires...on slicks though we get 1.7-1.9 sometimes they stick to much and bog but we always get full boost out of the hole

Josh he is not Sam, so I'm really not sure how he's running 13's, but ok... Slaturn you should meet up with us sometime if you haven't already.
