no catback lol, just a aftermarket y that opens at 3in ad then a high flow cat and just 3in pipe dumped after the rear lol.

Not bad at all for your first run

Frosty 05-28-2010 09:40 AM

With a better launch you're in the 13's.

Get some practice now that you have a run under your belt. :) Did you have fun?

GrandmasterCow 05-28-2010 10:00 AM

yeah man your passes looked good. wish i had better luck first time with an M6. lol oh well, time to replace more parts. lol

sweetbmxrider 05-28-2010 11:14 AM

get that 60 down and you will be mid 13's. did you lower the rear tire pressure? you don't wanna smoke street tires, just spin them to clean them up.

congrats on popping your cherry :lol:

NastyEllEssWon 05-28-2010 12:48 PM

wooot i called it....nice run though man...glad you got out there! :nod:



lol and you thought you were gonna do a 15 the first time

ib4200 05-28-2010 01:00 PM

Now go back and break 100 lol

Green_Phoenix_LT1 05-29-2010 09:55 PM

Yeah I had a blast. With more seat time Im sure I could get it into the 13s as it is right now.

No i didn't lower my tire pressure which if I did I probably wouldn't of suffered that bad wheel hop on my second pass lol.

Next chance I get I will be going back up there to do a little more running.

Congrats, I dont even remember what I was driving on my first pass down the track!! Good luck fighting the addiction!

Green_Phoenix_LT1 05-31-2010 07:17 PM

The track bug has set in. I want to go back as soon as I can lol. This time around I'll be taking everyones advice. Lower the tire pressure (i was at 40 warm), work on my launch and hold third longer.

Tru2Chevy 05-31-2010 07:35 PM

Lower the rears to the mid 20s to start with, and raise the fronts up to 50-55. Just remember to air up / down before you leave the track.

Not sure about a mid 13's but you can definitely see a high 13 w/ a 1.9-2.0 60

Slow-V6 06-01-2010 11:47 AM

Carefull with the wheel hop! Thats a big cause that blows Rear ends! The 1st time I went to the track in my 02 WS6 I wheel hopped on 2 passes and ended up breaking the axle bearings. I lowered my tire pressure from 34lbs to 21lbs and that took care of the wheel hop! Maybe I should have done some Moog Bushings instead of my BMR LCA's!!
