Hey Guys,
Tonight I went to the track with a bunch of my friends to see what my car could run before I do my 20 valve silver top 4A-GE swap, and I ended up lined up against a Viper GTS with exhaust on one of my four runs. We took off and I got completely smoked all the way through the race! The Viper ran a 12.4 and I ran a 17.7, which was the fastest of my four runs. My slowest run was an 18 flat. Tomorrow I can get the slips out of my friend's car and I can get some exact numbers. How does my track time compare to other ST track times for the quarter mile? Keep in mind that I had a slow reaction time of about .6-.8 on every one of my runs. Also, if anyone's curious, here's a pic of the Viper that was at the track. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

same at LACR. but with student ID, its only $5!!! its a lot of fun to go and watch and race. last time i went there was a 1995 mustang 5.0 that ran 8's!!!!!!!! on his last run, he wanted to try a little harder and shift harder/faster. popped a wheelie off the line, popped another one shifting into second, shifted into 3rd, popped another wheelie, and started weaving around. he ended up driving an extra 100 ft in the 1/4 mile. still got a way way better time than my car. i have also had guys with older celicas ask to race me. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition
