2015 GT non pp Auto track times

[jrsimon27]

I ran a 12.49 and a 12.55@113 stock Back to back. Disclaimer-the DA was about -1800 or so on that run. In late October at Atco. And that was with a 1.8 sixty.
I bet if you check your DA. you’re probably in the +2500 range on your run.

Amazing 1/4mile times for a stock car.
Thanks for sharing.

Density Altitude, air temp, and track prep make an easy 2-3 tenths and mph difference on a 13.0 car.

Best time tonight was a 12.94 @ 109.5. DA was 2444.

That’s an extremely good time. If you go back to the drag times DA calculator. They have a correction factor below where you typed in your original information for last night. Your correction for sea level is probably somewhere in the 12.5-12.6 range.

That is pretty good DA for Texas in the summer heat. Nice run! What track are you running out?

Updated times. Ran in December. It was 50 degree night. Best time prior to this night was a 12.94 @ 109. Nothing has changed other then i the weather. Still need tires.

Now my question is would a custom tune benefit me more then the canned tune that came with the SCT X4?

90 degree night : 12.94 @ 109 / 2.09 60 ft
50 degree night : 12.57 @ 111.31 / 1.98 60 ft

I would say yes. Mine is a 2016 GT Convertible (4085 lbs with a full tank and me in it) with an auto and 3.15 gears. I have a JLT CAI, MBRP Muffler and Resonator Delete and have an E85 tune and ran recently in Houston (I am in Katy.)

It was 48 degrees outside and I ran:
[email protected]/2.21 60 ft

The stock 235's don't like to hook for crap. I have tried the "zombie stomp," ease in, launch at 1800 rpm, etc. and it is a fine line before roasting them. I figure with a tire and launching hard I can get my 60's into the 1.8's.

1.8s on a tire should be no issue. Tires made a huge difference for me. Not just in the launch but through the 1-2, 2-3, and 3-4 shifts. On stock wheels/tires in drag mode, with adv track off, I logged my run and torque management was still affecting my run during the shifts due to traction loss. On stock tune, drag mode, adv track off, on DRs, there wasn't a hint of torque management that I could see in the log. Went from 2.0 60' to 1.85.

I'm in Katy too. Making the long trek to HRP tomorrow night to take advantage of cooler weather.

Nice, I was actually thinking about heading out to the track tomorrow myself instead of just using the Dragy.

Wow! Those are great times!! What data logger are you using? (don't have one, but want to get one ASAP)

How strict do they seem to be with enforcing having a roll bar on convertibles? I am wondering if it is worth the chance to go all the way to HRP or just go to HMP.

I'm not sure but last few times I have been there, they didn't seem to check anything. I have a couple tho. I have a buddy who LS swapped a V6 Mustang with fender exit exhaust and they didn't even pop his hood during tech.
